A big hard-hitting Watertown 
High School football team, defend- 
ing champions of Class B and fresh 
from a 20-0 victory over Class A 
Brockton High last Saturday, vis- 
its Manchester Field tomorrow af- 
ternoon for its annual game with 
the Aberjona Indians of Winchester 
High. 

The Injuns were far from being 
on the war-path last Saturday at 
Concord and unless their all-around 
play, and particularly their spirit, 
looks a long way up this week end 
the probable result isn’t too pleas- 
ant to think about. 

Watertown is being touted as 
one of the best in the Greater Bos- 
ton schoolboy ranks this year, with 
a veteran team that is big and 
fast and spirited. The Scarlet is, 
and should be, favored over Win- 
chester on the basis of what the 
two schools have, and have shown 
up to now. 

Winchester should, however, play 
much better than they did in their 
opening game last week, and just 
might give Watertown, possibly 
away up for Brockton last Satur- 
day, a real ball game. The local 
boys are big enough to cope with 
any team, once they start driving, 
and if injuries do not deprive them 
of key players tomorrow, they can 
make a contest of it. 

Defensively the Indians looked 
pretty good last week end, even 
without their two biggest linemen; 
Hennessey, injured on the kickoff, 
and Cullen, out with a bad stomach. 
Haggerty, Pratt, O’Brien, Riordan 
and Dattilo did some effective tack- 
ling and the guard play of Cusack 
and Hennessey, while he was in 
there, was very good. Bellino kick- 
ed very well, particularly for a 
sophomore. 

No one in his sober senses can 
pick Winchester over Watertown 
tomorrow! The Indians are as yet 
too shy of experience to use their 
potential effectively. The Star ex- 
pects a better showing than that 
made at Concord, however. 

The kickoff is at 2 o’clock. Wa- 
tertown didn’t go for the 1 :30 open- 
ing!

WINCHESTER GRADE CROSSING 
ELIMINATION 


SELECTMEN RECEIVE 
PROPOSAL FROM STATE 
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC 
WORKS 


The Board of Selectmen has just 
received a letter from State De- 
partment of Public Works Com- 
missioner John A. Volpe agreeing 
that Winchester’s contribution to 
the project for the elimination of 
the Winchester grade crossing and 
construction of a diversionary by- 
pass across the Skillings estate 
will be limited to $190,000. There- 
fore the Selectmen arc calling a 
special Town Meeting on Thursday, 
October 22, 1953 at 7:45 p. m. for 
the purpose of appropriating these 
funds. This meeting will be pre- 
ceded by a public hearing on Thurs- 
day, October 15 at 7:45 p. m. at 
which time full information on the 
project will be available to anyone 
attending. 

The total cost of the project, in- 
cluding the by-pass, now proposed 
by the State Department of Public 
WorkB is estimated at $6,000,000. 

The plan as presented is the re- 
sult of years of work by the En- 
gineering Department of the State 
Department of Public Works. 
Countless studies have been made 
by the state engineers, and many 
others by engineers of the Boston 
& Maine Railroad and consulting 
engineers employed by the town, 
and incorporate suggestions from 
many townspeople. 

The proposed bypass for through 
traffic around Winchester Center 
will start at Main street and Wash- 
ington street near the Junior High 
School, include an enlarged traffic 
I circle near the Town Hall, from 
where the new road will go through 
the Skillings property, across the 
i corner of Black Ball pond, under 
: both pairs of railroad tracks, then 
out on to Main street in the neigh- 
borhood of Blind Bridge street. The 
elevation of the railroad tracks will 
include new plaforms and the rais- 
ing of the station at Wedgcmere. 
Tiie Bacon street overpass will be- 
come an underpass; a new under- 
pass will be constructed so that 
traffic can proceed under the rail- 
road along Common street and 
Waterfield road; the underpass in 
Winchester Center will include a 
large traffic circle, and the Swanton 
street bridge over the main line 
will be changed to an underpass. 
The Swanton street bridge over 
the Woburn loop will remain as it. 

The Board of Selectmen are 
working actively with Thomas 
Worcester, Inc., engineers employ- 
ed by the State Department of 
Public Works for the project, to 
provide the fullest possible infor- 
mation to the Town at the special 
Town Meeting and the hearing to 
be 1 «Jd the week previous. The 
Selectriien expect to have present 
at the special Town Meeting en- 
gineers representing the State De- 
partment of Public Works and 
Thomas Worcester, Inc. Every 
effort is being made to show those 
interested exactly what is con- 
templated. 

This special Town Meeting which 
the Selectmen are calling for Octo- 
ber 22 will he specifically for the 
purpose of discussing and voting 
on the project. The matter is of 
sufficient importance so that it is 
felt that a full and uninterrupted 
evening should be devoted to its 
discussion. At a later date an- 
other special Town Meeting is to 
he called to vote principally on the 
High School project. Other mat- 
ters such as Rent Control and the 
report of the Personnel Board will 
be considered at the second meet- 
ing.

mony last Sunday afternoon when 
the Reverend John W. Ellison was 
instituted ns sixth rector of the 
Parish by the Episcopal Bishop of 
Massachusetts, the Right Reverend 
Norman B. Nash. 

Using the ancient order for the 
Institution of a Minister into a 
Parish from the Book of Common 
Prayer, Bishop Nash conducted the 
service before a large gathering of 
parishioners, town representatives, 
and friends. Also taking part in

handed the large wrought iron key 
to the front door of the church to 
the new rector, saying, “In the 
name and behalf of the Parish of 
the Epiphany, I do receive and ac- 
knowledge you, the Reverend John 
W. Ellison, as Priest and Rector of 
the same; and in token thereof, 
give into your hands the keys of 
this Church.” Bishop Nash also 
presented to Mr. Ellison copies of 
the Bible, the Book of Common 
Prayer, the Constitution and Can- 
ons of the Protestant Episcopal 
Church with these words, ‘‘Receive 
these Books; and let them be the 
rule of thy conduct in dispensing 
the divine Word, in leading the De- 
votions of the People, and in exer- 
cising the Discipline of the Church; 
and be thou in all things a pattern 
to the flock committed to thy 
care.” 

The special music included sing- 
ing by the congregation of the 
Gloria in Excelsis and of Psalm 
26. The choir sang as an anthem 
“Hear My Prayer” by James. 

Following the service some five 
bundled people gathered at the 
Parish House to greet and welcome 
Mr. and Mrs. Ellison. In the re- 
ceiving line with the new rector 
and his wife, were Bishop and Mrs. 
Nash, Mr. and Mrs. Albert S. Croc- 
kett, and Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell 
McCreery. A large committee, 
headed by Mrs. Hollis Dyer, the 
Vice-President of the Church Ser- 
vice League, was responsible for 
the arrangements for the reception.

A N N 1 V GR S A in MOM) A Y 

Mrs. George W. Tilley of 5 Lloyd

Monday, September 28, by holding 
open house at her home to mem- 
bers of her family, neighbors and 
friends, old and new. Guests drop- 
ped in to extend congratulations 
and best wishes throughout the day 
| and well into the evening. Among 
out-of-town guests were Mrs. Til- 
ley’s niece, Mrs. Margaret Brown 
of Newport, Mrs. Brown’s son, 
Clement, and his wife and small 
son, ‘‘Clem, Jr”. 

Many flowers received during the 
day with other birthday gifts dec- 
orated the house for the late after- 
noon and evening festivities, and 
Mrs. Tilley received many cards 
and other messages of congratula- 
tions. Among the guests who call- 
ed was Mrs. H. N. Bernard, who 
years ago was the Tilleys’ next 
door neighbor on Cutting street. 
Mrs. Albert Crockett, who as the 
young Margery Tower lived near 
Mrs. Tilley, brought flowers from 
the altar of the Church of the 
Epiphany. Mrs. Tilley was also 
pleased to receive a birthday call 
from the Epiphany’s new rector, 
the Rev. John Ellison. 

Every one who called to express 
birthday felicitations was invited 
to Mrs. Tilley’s one hundredth 
birthday by the sprightly little lady 
whose keen wit and sense of humor 
have not been dimmed a hit by the 
years. 

She has lived in Winchester fori 
half a century and has been alone 
since the death of her husband, 
keeping her home ami caring for 
herself in a way to win the admir- 
ation of every one. Her health and 
grasp of things are remarkable and ! 
she recalls many an interesting I 
anecdote of the old days when she 
and Mr. Tilley came to Winchester 
from Newport. 

A friend to all, young and old; 
always ready to help or inspire, 
Mrs. Tilley is beloved by all who 
know her. The Star joins her par- 
ticular admiration society in ex- 
tending its personal congratula- 
tions and is looking forward to 
greeting “Emily” on that hun- 
dredth birthday she jokes about!

FRUIT AND FLOWER MISSION 

On Tuesday morning, September 
29th, Mrs. George B. Redding, 10 
Cranston road, very graciously en- 
tertained the ladies who have given 
so generously of their time 
throughout the summer to the work 
of the Fruit and Flower Mission. 

Representatives of the various 
churches and garden clubs shared 
their experiences, and expressed 
appreciation for the flowers which 
have been donated for the past four 
months. The work of the Flower 
Mission has been going on for 84 
years, Winchester residents hav- 
ing been active in it for almost 50 
years. Many helpful suggestions 
for future years and a feeling of 
town-wide cooperation resulted. 


LOCAL MEN 
IN HOLY NAME RALLY 


TO PRESENT JOHN ALLAN MAY 


I 


Over 45,000 men of the Holy 
Name Societies of the Archdiocese 
of Boston, numbering 350 parishes, 
gathered at Fenway Park last Sun- 
day, September 27, for the Fifth 
Religious Rally for Men since 1947. 
Sponsored by His Excellency Arch- 
bishop Richard J. Cushing, D. D., 
the keynote of the Rally was “Per- 
sonal Holiness”. Pledge cards 
signifying extra devotions to he 
performed by the men between now 
nnd Christmas were placed in spe- 
cial containers in front of the beau- 
tiful outdoor altar. Preceding the 
religious portion of the festivities 
there was a tremendous exhibition 
wherein 1,000 American flags from 
over 300 parishes were carried in 
parade by Holy Name men and who 
formed a huge cordon around the 
entire field ns a climax of their en- 
deavors. Over 800 Holy Name men 
acted ns ushers for the day while 
under the Transportation Commit- 
tee facilities for over 400 buses 
were maintained. 

The three hour long assemblage 
included an address by the Arch- 
bishop, a religious pageant and 
massed field demonstration and 
solemn pontifical benediction. The 
Adjutant General’s office said the 
display of flags was the biggest 
gathering of flags in one spot in 
New England. Flag bearers stood 
three deep in a perimeter enclosing 
the seated participants on the field. 
Four crack C. Y. O Bands took part 
while more than 1,700 Priests 
marched, many from 24 Religious 
Orders. Approximately 3,500 
marchers took part in the hour long 
religious procession with the Red, 
White, and Blue caped Holy Name 
“letter men” who are Presidents of 
their own Parish Units, contrasting 
sharply with the black, white and 
brown habits of the clergy. The 
Presidents were flanked on either 
side by other Holy Name men to 
form the huge H. N. S. letters. 

In his address the Archbishop 
asked, “What does it profit a man 
to gain the whole world and suffer 
the loss of his own soul ?” He call- 
ed upon the Holy Name men to 
strive for personal sanctity, with- 
out which all else is vain, empty 
and pointless. 

Taking part in the festivities 
were James F. Murphy, St. Mary’s 
President in the Letter Section on 
the field with William McCormack 
assisting in forming the letters. 
Flag Bearers were Anthony Doyle, 
Laurence Erhard and Thomas Mor- 
rissey. Vincent Erhard served as 
Vice-President of Field Demonstra- 
tion and Spiritual Director Rev. 
Joseph McCall marched with the 
Clergy. 

The Immaculate Conception 
parish was represented by Rev. 
Herbert K. A. Driscoll marching 
with the Clergy with President 
Sam Kinton and Joseph Zaffina in 
the letter formation. Flag bearers 
were Timothy Connors, Albert 
Thorne and Clement Landry. Win- 
chester members of the Executive 
Board of the Woburn District were 
William J. Croughwell and Vincent 
Erhard. The Woburn District is 
made up of parishes in 12 nearby 
communities.

PIHl IN SCENE DESIGN 
AT CARNEGIE TECH 

Marshall K. Pihl, Jr., having 
completed bis second year at Har- 
vard College, has no\v transferred 
to Carnegie Institute of Technology 
in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, where 
he is enrolled in the College of Fine 
Arts majoring in Scene Design. 

During the past summer Mar- 
shall worked ns Assistant Art Dir- 
ector for Richard Aldrich’s Music 
Circus where he was in charge of 
Scene Design. Also, during the 
summer, he found time to design 
the scenery for two of the three 
plays put on by the Harwich Junior 
Theatre, designing sets for both 
Pinocchio and Treasure Island. It 
was during this interim that Mar- 
shall definitely decided to make the 
change from Harvard to Carnegie 
Tech., realizing finally that that 
was the field of the theatre where 
he wanted to work. He was for- 
tunate to be able to take this course 
since it is very limited, having pro- 
fessional standing, and rated as 
one of the foremost courses in this 
field in the country. Since Mar- 
shall’s ultimate goal is to take a 
Master’s degree at the Yale Grad- 
uate School of the Theatre, the 
training at Carnegie Tech will be 
indispensable.

Association held at the Weston 
Golf Club last Thursday, Nelson H. 
Seelye of the Winchester Country 
Club turned in the low net in the 
Gold Star Class (over 80 years). 
Mr. Seelye’s score was 114-74. Fred 
P. Hayward of Brae Burn, also in 
the Ciold Star Class, carded 112-84. 

The tournament program pre- 
scribed nine holes for the Gold Star

Hayward played the full eighteen 
holes. 

Our well-known townsman, Nel- 
son Seelye, who has passed his 
eighty-eighth birthday, is remark- 
ably active for his years, and is the 
last remaining active golfer of the 
group who were members of the 
Winchester Golf Club and partici- 
pated in the organization of the 
Winchester Country Club in 1902. 

Other Winchester seniors who 
played in this tournament were: 
Alfred M. Bond, W. D. Eaton, G. S.

Work, study and travel wore 
again the favorite vacation pursuits 
of Winchester teachers, according 
Lo a recent survey conducted by the 
school department. Though many 
a non-tenehor has pictured the 
school maria's summer as a life of 
ease, only a handful of teachers 
enjoyed that enviable status. 

For most of the men and not a 
few of the women on the staff a 
summer job helped to keep the 
family exchequer in balance. The 
wide range of these teachers’ inter- 
ests and abilities is seen when their 
varied positions are listed. They 
included those of road engineer, 
camp director and counselor, recre- 
ation director, boys’ club worker, 
summer-school teacher, silversmith, 
carpenter, painter, printer, contrac- 
tor’s helper, guest-house operator, 
waitress, and excursion-boat cap- 
tain. 

Summer school lured a sizable 
number of teachers for the tradi- 
tional busman’s holiday. Boston 
University, Harvard, University of 
New Hampshire, University of 
Innsbruck (Austria), Boston State 
Teachers College, Fitchburg Teach- 
ers College, and the Hyannis Sum- 
mer School were among the schools 
enrolling Winchester teachers. At- 
tending the conference of the New 
England Association for Supervi- 
sion and Curriculum Development, 
held at the University of Connecti- 
cut, were Miss Leonor Rich, princi- 
pal of the Washington and Noonan 
Schools, and Miss Sybil Daniels, 
science teacher at the high school. 

The majority of those who trav- 
eled during the summer confined 
their trips to the United States and 
Canada. A fortunate few, however, 
were able to spend their vacations 
learning about the people and coun- 
tries of Western Europe at first 
hand. Visiting France, Switzerland, 
Italy and England with other Win- 
chester people, Mrs. Ella M. Stacy 
found time to study German at the 
University of Innsbruck in May- 
hofen, Austria. Miss Eleanor Ani- 
fantis attended the International 
Conference on the Role of Music 
in the Education of Youth and 
Adults, held in Brussels, Belgium, 
under the auspices of U.N.E.S.C.O. 
in collaboration with the Interna- 
tional Music Council. Also traveling 
in the British Isles and on the Con- 
tinent were Mrs. Sylvia Backer and 
Miss Mary McAuley. An extensive 
auto tour of Spain was taken by 
Everett Bolster, who reported fa- 
vorable impressions of the compar- 
ative prosperity and stability of 
that country. 

For those teachers who neither 
worked for wages nor studied, nor 
traveled far afield, summer days 
provided opportunities to catch up 
on a myriad of household chores, to 
read the hooks for which there is 
never time enough during the 
school year, to enjoy a few quiet 
hours free from the pressures of 
the classroom.

UN' ST., M^R£SiE(#<^AN0$, MASS. 


The third meeting of the Wyman 
Mothers’ Association Board for 
1953-54 was hold Tuesday evening, 1 
September 29th, at the home of the • 
President. Mrs. Charles P. Reeves. 

The hope of making n gift of a 
television set to the school has had i 
to he abandoned, as a proper one 
for school use is too expensive. It 
is expected that eventually TV will 
come to all the schools through the 
School Department. Mrs. Reeves 
has obtained from Miss Lowry, 
however, a “Christmas List’’ of a 
number of other items which are 
badly needed by the school. 

Plans for the fall meeting at 
7:45 p. m. on October 15th, feature 
n talk by and informal reception 
for Dr. Harry V. Gilson, the new 
Superintendent of Schools. 

Mrs. Thomas Hill and her Ways 
and Means Committee are pro- 
gressing rapidly with plans for an 
informal dance on November 7th, 
which gives promise of being as 
successful in every way as the one 
held last spring. 

Since Dr. Volta Hall’s talk to the 
mothers at the last annual meeting 
was so thoroughly enjoyed, it was 
decided to ask him to address an 
evening meeting in March. 

Delicious refreshments were en- 
joyed by the Board after the close 
of the business meeting. 


CITIZENSHIP DAY AT 
NOONAN-WASHINGTON SCHOOLS 


Citizenship Day was appropriate- 
ly observed at the Noonan and 
Washington schools recently, when 
the pupils of Grades II through VI 
gathered in their respective assem- 
bly halls to present special pro- 
grams. Citizenship Day in our 
schools is sponsored by the State 
Department of Education to en- 
courage an understanding and ap- 
preciation of the privileges and 
responsibilities of citizenship in a 
democracy. 

The program at the Noonan 
School, with Joseph Butare as the 
announcer, was as follows: 

Salute to the Flag 
Singing of “America” 

Grade VI — Explanation of why we 
celebrate Citizenship Day, our 
Rights and Duties under the Con- 
stitution 

Grade II — Foreigners Can Be 
Citizens, Too 

Grade III — An Original Song 
Grade IV — A Good Citizen’s Code 
Grade V — Original Stories, fol- 
lowed by a Group of Patriotic 
Songs 

Singing of “America the Beautiful” 
A similar program was presented 
at the Washington School.

FUMBLES PAVED WAY TO 
WINNER’S SCORES 

An alert, spirited Concord team 
cashed in on its two scoring oppor- 
tunities Inst Saturday afternoon, 
converting two deep field Winches- 
ter fumbles into touchdowns thnt 
gave the Patriots a 13-0 victory 
over the Indians in the first foot- 
haU game between the two schools 
since 1939. 

Concord deserved to win. Con- 
siderably outweighed by Winches- 
ter, it played with a lot of spirit 
and seemed much further along 
than the Indians, whose big line- 
men were continually outchnrgcd 
by the lighter Maroon nnd Gold. 

For all its edge Concord showed 
nothing like a sustained offense, 
nnd had it not been for a coUple of 
local errors the game might well 
have ended in a scoreless stalemate. 
Neither team really threatened on 
its own throughout the game, 
though Winchester early in the 
game did reach the Concord 12. 

Concord made five first downs to 
three for Winchester nnd had a 
rushing edge, 100 to 57. The Patri- 
ots completed one of seven passes 
for nine yards, last 35 yards in 
penalties and fumbled twice, recov- 
ering once. 

Winchester completed two of 10 
passes for 18 yards, lost 45 yards 
to the officials and fumbled five 
times, recovering twice. The 
second half of the game was very 
even statistically with Winchester 
making two first downs to Con- 
cord’s one and rushing for 39 yards 
to 27 for the Patriots. Winchester 
completed one short pass out of 
four tries the second half while 
Concord threw only one aerial 
which fell incomplete. Concord 
lost 35 yards from scrimmage 
with Winchester losing 23. 

The Indians lost a great chance 
to force the breaks by driving Con- 
cord hack deep in its own territory 
right at the start of the game when 
Dave Pratt fumbled a towering 
punt in the midst of a circle of 
maroon jedseys, Concord recover- 
ing on Winchester’s 47. 

The big Winchester line was 
stopping Concord dead at this 
phase of the going, and Magoon 
liad to kick, Bcllino making a nice 
20 yard runback which was nulli- 
fied by a fifteen yard clipping 
penalty. 

Bellino had to kick and a good 
runback by the Concord safety was 
also spoiled by a clipping penalty, 
the Patriots being forced back to 
their 40. Pratt pulled down 
Dougherty on an attempted sweep 
for a two yard gain. IDattilo mur- 
dered a sweep the other way for an 
eight yard loss and O’Brien hauled 
down Magoon away hack on the 
Concord 21. Magoon kicked short 
and outside at the Concord 30. 

Here Winchester made its only 
serious threat, Murphy bucking for 
short yardage and Pratt hitting 
O’Brien with a pass for a first 
down at the 15. 

Bellino was dumped for a two 
yard loss on a pitchout, Murphy 
got back three on a buck and a pass 
was grounded. On fourth down 
Bellino was stopped at the 12 on a 
sweep and Concord took over. 

The Patriots proceeded to rack 
up three first downs, advancing 
from their 15 to the Winchester 34, 
before an offside penalty and some 
great line play by Jim Cusack 
forced them to kick. 

Magoon’s kick was run back 
nicely by Bellino to the 35, hut an- 
other clipping penalty, forced the 
Indians away hack to the one yard 
line. 

Lindsey replaced Pratt at quar- 
terback and Haggerty picked up 
four yards. With every one look- 
ing for a kick, a pitchout to Hag- 
gerty was called and over-eager 
Bobby hobbled the hall which roll- 
ed behind him into the end zone 
where it was eagerly pounced upon 
by Concord’s Boh Downey. Boh 
Amundsen squarely blocked the try 
for point-after by placement. 

Winchester had a chance shortly 
afterward when Mantini recovered 
a Concord fumble at the Patriots 
35, hut Pratt stumbled and fell be- 
hind three man interference on 
what looked like a promising sweep

after picking up only three, and 
Murphy bucked for the same yard- 
age before Concord intercepted a 
pass at its 20. 

A fifteen yard holding penalty 
stopped Concord and on the last 
play of the half, Capt. Riordan in- 
tercepted a Bouchard forward to 
hull and drive his way to the Con- 
cord 27, nearly getting away. 

Winchester started well the 
second half, Pratt running the kick- 
off from the goal line to the 15 and 
Haggerty and Bellino making first 
down at the 25. Haggerty added 
three, hut a pass over center was 
blocked and on the next play Hag- 
gerty again fumbled, Concord re- 
covering on the Indians’ 20. 

Cullinane broke through for a 
first down at the 10, being tackled 
by Bellino. Bouchard squirmed 
through to the two and in two 
bucks Bob Davidson went over. De- 
Ruzzo added the extra point. 

From then until the final whistle 
it was even Stephen with Winches- 
ter having slightly the better of 
what going there was. Several 
times the Indians looked like they 
might get going, but each time, a 
fumble, or penalty slowed their 
war-path pait down to a walk. 

Cusack and Hennessey played 
well in the center of the line and 
it didn’t help too much when the

going with an elbow injury. Dat-

tackling at the ends, and behind 
the line Haggerty, Bellino, Pratt,

At a recent all day conference 
of top officials of the American 
Motorists Insurance Company at 
the Hotel Statler in Boston Rep. 
Henry E. Keenan of Arlington 
stated that the “biggest increase in 
fatal traffic accidents during the 
past four years has occurred on the 
open highway where more and more 
motorists are losing control of their 
vehicles and plunging off the road." 
Figures were cited to show that 
out-of-control accidents increased 
more than 40 percent since 1948, in 
that year there being approximate- 
ly 7,700 fatalities of this type while 
the total last year rose to 10,800 
fatalities, an increase of 3,100. Rep. 
Keenan claims what the Star has 
long contented that excessive speed 
is the major cause of these ac- 
cidents, though drowsiness and out- 
right fatigue from long driving are 
also important factors. The answer 
would seem to be don’t drive 80 
just because your car will do it, 
and don’t drive when you are sleepy 
or over-tired. The real answer of 
course, is not to make cars that 
will reach the terrific speeds at- 
tained hy modern cars, because 
with traffic constantly on the in- 
crease such speeds can he used in 
very few places. They aren’t safe 
to use anywhere! However, as 
long as curs are built capable of 
doing 75 or 80 or 100 miles an hour 
there will always be adventurous 
spirits who will try to attain these 
speeds. That is human nature. The 
only solution is cars that will not 
go so fast! 


However you may feel about 
raising the railroad tracks through 
town to eliminate the grade cross- 
ing for the benefit of the motorists, 
and the Star takes a dim view of 
the plan (with the exception of the 
diversionary highway through the 
Skillings estate), the Selectmen 
have done well to limit the coming 
special town meeting to discussing 
the elimination plans and costs. 
These items should furnish suffi- 
cient material for the considera- 
tion of any one town meeting. 
Those who have furthered the over- 
head, including the town fathers 
and state officials, undoubtedly feel 
they have worked for the perma- 
nent betterment of Winchester. You 
cannot quarrel with the “perma- 
nence" of their plan, once we get 
the great wall through town, but 
the “betterment" may still be open 
to debate! The Star, for one, would 
like to see the diversionary high- 
way given a try before raising an 
eyesore through our Center at a 
cost of many millions. 


LETTER OF COMMENDATION 


Editor of the Star: 

It is always a pleasure to bring 
to the attention of the Town in- 
stances wherein our young men are

BOAT CLUB NEWS 


That “Volunteer" in the box on 
this page — this time it means for 
even ns little as three hours a 
month and in a place that’s critically 
important to the whole community 
the Winchester Hospital. All 
private hospitals must depend to 
some extent on the willingness of 
the town folk to contribute time or 
money. This appeal is for your 
time; it’s worth money to your hos- 
pital — much more than you may 
have guessed. Now don’t turn the 
page! Maybe you've read this be- 
fore, but maybe too you just didn’t 
realize we were talking to you. 
Why, you’re the one we’ve been 
waiting for all ulong if you can 
just manage one free morning or 
afternoon a month to give to your 
hospital. 

Now here’s a phone number. It’s 
Winchester 6-1912 and rings Mrs. 
James B. Harlow who can tell you 
how to get in touch with the chair- 
men of the various volunteer ser- 
vices. (If there’s no answer, call 
Mrs. Richard Carons nt Winches- 
ter 6-1357.) Right now help is 
needed particularly in these three 
ways — working in the hospital 
coffee shop, taking care of the pa- 
tients’ flowers, and mending hos- 
pital linen. The shop is so new and 
clean you can’t help but enjoy be- 
ing there. You’ll even be taught 
how to make sodas and sundaes 
along with waiting on customers 
and can become quite professional 
in no time. As to caring for pa- 
tients’ flowers — the upkeep here 
is time-consuming for the nurses 
but real fun and easy enough if you 
feel your artistic talent is limited 
to changing water and cutting off 
stems. And the mending — it’s a 
fine art with some of you ladies, 
and oh, what the hospital would 
give to have a few more hands at 
this work. Sewing is done in neigh- 
borhood groups for the sake of con- 
venience and in good company over 
a cup of coffee just for fun. 

Now don’t delay! Call that num- 
ber, Winchester 6-1912, or Win- 
chester 6-1357, and start out the 
year helping your hospital. There’s 
real satisfaction in doing a job 
that's really needed. Here’s your 
chance! Volunteer! 


"JOHNNY GOES 
TO THE HOSPITAL" 


The Star received this week, with 
the compliments of the author, a 
pamphlet, entitled “Johnny Goes to 
the Hospital”, written for the staff 
of the Children’s Medical Center in 
Boston by Josephine Abbott Sever 
of Lewis road, whom older res- 
idents of Winchester perhaps know 
better as the former Mrs. T. Graf- 
ton Abbott. 

The pamphlet prepares young 
children for their first hospitaliz- 
ation by informing both child and 
parents what is in store for the 
youngster through the visit to a 
hospital of a little boy named 
i Johnny. 

’ Johnny goes to a hospital with 
■ a stomach ache, and experiences 
the preparation necessary to an 
operation, learning that at the 
worst being hospitalized is not 
terrifying, but much of the time 
can be fun. The pamphlet is clever- 
ly illustrated by Mary Stevens and 
prepared under the editorial direc- 
tion of Sydney S. Gellis, M. D. 

Mrs. Sever, through her personal 
and professional experience is well 
qualified to write the pamphlet. 
Herself a mother of six children 
and grandmother of eleven, she was 
chosen Massachusetts State Mother 
of 1947. 

She holds degrees from both 
Smith and Radcliffe and as an ac- 
credited psychologist was educa- 
tional consultant of the American 
Social Hygiene Association and 
consultant in Parent Education in 
the Division of Child Hygiene, 
Massachusetts State Department of 
Public Health. 

Mrs. Sever was for many years 
on the staff of the Judge Baker 
Guidance Center in Boston and this 
year marks her fifth as Director of 
Public Relations on the Children’s 
Hospital and the Children’s Med- 
ical Center in Boston. 


Under the provisions of the Zon- 
ing By-Laws, ns amended, as ap- 
plied to general residence districts, 
the removal of earth products, in- 
cluding gravel, may he authorized 
by the Board of Appeals, except 
when permitted ns an accessary 
use, if its permission is obtained in 
accordance with the procedure and 
conditions set forth in Section 8 of 
the By-Laws, which provides that 
no permission shall he granted un- 
less the Board shall find that the 
proposed use will not adversely 
affect the health or safety of per- 
sons living in the neighborhood or 
be injurious to the neighborhood or 
detrimental to the public welfare. 
It is also provided that if permis- 
sion is granted, the Board shall 
attach to it such conditions and 
limitations as to manner and dur- 
ation of use, as in its opinion are 
necessary to insure conformity with 
the spirit and intent of the by-laws. 

The Board of Appeals held a 
hearing on the Fitzgerald peti- 
tion on August 11, at which all 
members of the Board were 
present. Nicholas II., and James 
J. Fitzgerald represented the Fitz- 
gerald Fuel Company and Nicholas 
Fitzgerald spoke in favor of the 
petition. 

Present and either speaking or 
being recorded in opposition were 
Patrick Gallagher, 87 Cross street, 
Arthur J. Hewis, 91 Swanton street, 
Carlton Clogston, 3G Forest street, 
Fletcher Oakes, 29 Forest street, 
Patrick Allen, 266 Cross street, 
Mrs. Charles C. Carr, 31 Forest 
street, Hattie E. Snow, 39 Forest 
street, Ruth E. Enstrom, 4 Holton 
street, John Hall, 105 Cross street, 
Angelo Bruno, 121 Loring avenue, 
Anthony Bonsignor, 119 Loring 
avenue, Lorenee M. Woodside, 42 
Lebanon street and Alice Winn, 22 
Stone avenue. Letters opposing 
the application were received from 
Roderick and Albert MacDonnell, 
21 Forest street, Charles C. Carr, 
31 Forest street, and Lillian W. 
Snyder, 59 Highland avenue. The 
hearing was lively and personal- 
ities were not spared. Some of the 
objection to granting the petition 
stemmed from the Company’s pro- 
posal to remove some old growth 
trees from the land. 

All the members of the Board 
of Appeals viewed the premises in 
question and after taking the mat- 
ter under consideration for some 
time the Board reached the unani- 
mous decision to grant permission 
to the Fitzgerald Fuel Company to 
remove • gravel and other earth 
products from its lot in the general 
residence zone, with the following 
restrictions. 

1. The lot in the general resi- 
dence district shall be graded to 
the abutting sidewalk level of For- 
est street. No excavation shall be 
made below such level. 

2. The banks between the peti- 
tioner’s property and adjacent prop- 
erty shall be graded to a slope of 
not more than 45 degrees, or such 
lesser degree as may be necessary 
to support the adjoining property. 

3. Both the petitioner’s lots, in- 
cluding hanks shall be graded to 
reasonably smooth surfaces and 
shall he covered with a layer of 
soil having an average depth of not 
less than 3 inches, and suitable for 
the growth of vegetation. 

4. All surfaces shall be seeded 
for a growth of vegetation ade- 
quate to cover them. 

5. All grading herein authorized 
and the covering of all surfaces 
shall be completed before October 
10, 1953. 

It was the unanimous opinion of 
the Board of Appeals that the pro- 
posed use, subject to the provided 
restrictions and limitations, will 
not adversely affect the health or 
safety of persons living in the 
neighborhood of such use or be in- 
jurious to the neighborhood or he 
detrimental to the public welfare.

SLOW DOWN AND LIVE" 


Success of the “Slow Down and 
Live" campaign waged in the 
eleven states of the Northeastern 
region was reported today by 
Regisistrar of Motor Vehicles, Ru- 
dolph F. King, Massachusetts mem- 
ber of the Co-ordinating Commit- 
tee. 

Instead of the expected seasonal 
bulge in traffic fatalities during the 
three-month summer period, there 
was a 3‘Z, drop in the number of 
deaths as compared to the 1952 toll. 
This means that 41 fewer persons 
were killed during June, July and 
August, despite the 6 r /r increase in 
travel volume which set an all-time 
summer record for the Northeast 
region. 

This safety performance was 
achieved because of the splendid 
cooperation of motorists and pedes- 
trians with the enforcement and 
control officers who concentrated 
their activities on the reduction of 
speed as a deterrent to accidents. 

“During the June, July and 
August campaign, several million 
“Slow Down and Live" pamphlets 
were distributed in the participat- 
ing states — 390,000 of which were 
passed out in Massachusetts," said 
Registrar King, “and the saving of 
41 lives from traffic mishaps in the 
eleven-state area is proof that the 
slogan was well chosen." 


WINCHESTER HOSPITAL NOTES 


A forty-hour week was put into 
operation for hospital employees on 
September 28th, 1953. Because the 
hospital operates seven duys a 
week, twenty-four hours a day, it 
was not an easy matter to rear- 
range schedules. However, muny 
new employees, including nurses, 
have been engaged in the last few 
weeks, and because of them the 
transition has been effected very 
smoothly. The hospital is glad to 
bring its weekly hours in line with 
general practice.

FIRE 

PREVENTION] 
“WEEK 



Make a thorough check of 
your home. Inspect and clean 
your heating system, correct 
faulty wiring, clean out rubbish 
such as old newspapers and 
oily rags, and remove gasoline 
or other volatile liquids from 
the house. Follow these and 
other simple fire prevention 
rules regularly . The “ounce of 
precaution" proverb is never 
more true when it comes to the 
need of better fire prevention.

The allness of God, good, and the con- 
sequent unreality of whatever iB unlike 
God will be the theme at Christian Science 
services Sunday. 

The Lesson-Sermon entitled "Unreality’’ 
includes the nccount from the Bible of 
Christ Jesus’ healing of the man with a 
withered hand. It concludes with the fol- 
lowing verse: 

"Ami looking round about upon them all. 
he said unto the mnn. Stretch forth thy 
hnnd. And he did so: nnd his hand W’as 
restored whole ns the other" (Luke 6:10). 

Among the passages that will be read 
from "Science nnd Health with Key to the 
Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy will be: 

"Denial of the possibility of Christian 
healing robs Christianity of the very ele- 
ment. which gave It divine force and its 
astonishing nnd unequalled success in the 
first century" (134:17). 

The Golden Text is from I Timothy: 

"Charge them that are rich in this world, 
that they he not highminded, nor trust In 
uncertain riches, but in the living Cod. who 
giveth us richly all things to enjoy" (6:17).

HELD AS HOSTAGE 
IN ATTEMPTED PRISON BREAK 


Albert M. Thompson of 16 Gar- 
field avenue, assistant deputy war- 
den at the State Prison in Charles- 
town, was held as a hostage for a 
short while Monday afternoon by 
five convicts attempting to break 
jail. 

The attempt was unsuccessful 
and no one was hurt. Mr. Thomp- 
son said he was notified at 2:46 by 
a telephone operator at the prison 
that some prisoners were missing 
from their work benches, and after 
telling the operator to alert the en- 
tire prison personnel, he went in 
search of them. 

The convicts had hidden in the 
old underwear shop of the prison, 
and surprised Mr. Thompson after 
he had gotten too far into the shop 
to withdraw. There were five of 
them and they had a sharpened 
screw-driver and a heavy steel bar 
with which they enforced their 
command to Mr. Thompson to keep 
quiet and he would not be hurt. 

Mr. Thompson tried to dissuade 
the convicts from their break at- 
tempt, but they paid little atten- 
tion to him. They did him no harm 
and did not harm a second guard, 
who also entered the shop and was 
taken prisoner by the quintet. 

Finally a third guard strolled in 
and he wus followed by a group of 
officers to whom the convicts culm- 
ly surrenderd. Mr. Thompson said 
he and his fellow guard huddled 
with the convicts for perhaps half 
an hour, during which “every one 
had his say!” 

MISS GLOVER SHOWERED 


Mrs. Robert Joyce of 13 Webster 
street gave a shower recently at 
her home for Miss Nancy Glover, 
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry 
Glover of 1G Webster street, whose 
marriage to Arthur LaMonica of 
East Boston took place Thursday 
October 1.

PAINTINGS BY 
EUROPEAN CHILDREN 


The Winchester Art Association 
will bring a collection of paintings 
by European children to the Public 
Library gallery for its first show- 
ing of the season. This exhibition, 
which promises to be of unusual in- 
terest not only because of the 
talent of the artists but because of 
its internaional character, will be 
opened at the first meeting of the 
Association on Tuesday, October 6, 
at 8 p. m. and will be on view until 
October 21. 

Adelaide Pittaway Sproul, who is 
art director at the Shady Hill 
School in Cambridge, will be the 
speaker at this meeting. Her live- 
ly interest and experience in this 
field make her a most appropriate 
attraction to appear in connection 
with this remarkable exhibit. 

Following the children’s show 
and before the exhibition of paint- 
ings of Maud and Patrick Morgan, 
opening on November 3, the Asso- 
ciation hopes to have a brief show- 
ing of the summer work of its 
members. All are invited to bring 
drawings and paintings to the 
Library by October 14 in order that 
these may be put up as soon as the 
current show is taken down. This 
special showing is an added attrac- 
tion to the usual schedule, and all 
are urged to contribute and to en 
joy it. 

The Association is planning a 
varied program of speakers and ex- 
hibitions for the year in addition to 
the classes under the direction of 
Miss Harriette Smith which are to 
be offered to children as well as to 
adult members. Either new or old 
residents of Winchester who are in- 
terested in art are cordially invited 
to consult Mr. Fred E. Abbe, mem- 
bership chairman, or Mr. Kenneth 
Hall, treasurer, if they are inter- 
ested in joining the Association.

Natick are the parents of a third 
son, James Edward, born Septem- 
ber 30, at the Newton-Wellesley 
Hospital. Mrs. Fulton is the for- 
mer Katharine Hall, daughter of

Winslow road. 


WINCHESTER HOSPITAL 
AIDE CLASS 


DAMAGE AT BACON S MILL 


Last Thursday shortly after 6 
o’clock Police Headquarters was 
notified that after a sound of break- 
ing glass, boys had been seen run- 
ning from the old Bacon Felt Mill 
in Grove place. 

Officer John McHugh went to in- 
vestigate and on Canterbury road 
picked up three out-of-town boys 
who admitted having been at the 
mill and breaking glass there. 
They were taken to Police Head- 
quarters and questioned by Lt. Ed- 
ward O’Connell. 

As a result of this preliminary 
investigation Sgt. Edward F. Bow- 
ler and Officers McHugh and Doug- 
las Martell rounded up 24 boys, 
mostly from Medford and Medford 
Hillside, who when questioned at 
headquarters admitted entering the 
mill and breaking glass there. The 
names of nine more boys were se- 
cured as implicated. 

As soon as the owner of the mill 
can estimate the damage to the 
structure the parents of the boys 
responsible will be notified of the 
amounts they will have to pay. 


METCALF UNION 


Members of Metcalf Union, the 
high school fellowship at the Uni- 
tarian Church, will go to Cedar 
Hill, Waltham, Sunday afternoon, 
for a South Middlesex Federation 
meeting. The group will leave the 
church ut 2:30. 

The meeting will be held rain or 
shine and members are urged to 
wear picnic clothes. Games and 
recreation will he under the direc- 
tion of Louis Chiarmonte, council 
member. Dr. William Rice of Wel- 
lesley, noted for his work with 
young people, will speak on the 
subject, “Why Youth Groups?” An 
advisor-minister training session 
will complete the program. 

All members will take a box 
lunch, and tonic, ice cream and 
cookies will be served. 

Nearly fifty young people of high 
school age are members this year 
of Metcalf Union. A varied and in- 
teresting program is being planned. 


Miss Laura B. Rogers, R. N., di- 
rector of nursing at Winchester 
Hospital, reports that applications 
are coming in promptly for the hos- 
pital aide training class which com- 
mences October 19th. There are 
still vacancies, but it is advised 
that those wishing to join apply 
soon to the director of nursing, as 
the membership is limited to fif 
teen. 

The course consists of two weeks 
of class work, plus four weeks of 
supervised training on the floors. 
The students are paid while learn- 
ing and will be given full-time em- 
ployment upon graduation. The 
course is open to girls and women 
with two years or more of high 
school education. It is hoped that 
from this class several aides will be 
found who are qualified for further 
training as operating room techni- 
cians. 

These aides in their aqua uni 
forms and caps have become an im- 
portant nnd attractive group in the 
nursing department, and many pa- 
tients have commented on their 
value. They are making a definite 
and direct contribution to the hos- 
pital’s care of the sick.

PARISH PLAYERS TO HOLD 
TRYOUTS OCTOBER 5th 


The Parish Players will open 
their 28th year of activity Monday 
evening, October 5, with a dessert 
and coffee in Chidley Hall, First 
Congregational Church, followed 
by a brief meeting and try-outs for 
casting the falT play* “The Impor- 
tance of Being Earnest”. Notices 
of the dessert and try-outs have 
been sent to Parish Players mem- 
bers, but newcomers are most cor- 
dially invited to the dessert and 
the try-outs that evenings. 

The play takes place November 
19, 20 and 21, with the Thursday 
evening performance benefitting 
the Forum, for expenses of their 
Spring Conference. 

Three new board members have 
been elected to the Parish Players: 
Mrs. F. Milne Blanchard, Dr. Rob- 
ert G. Millican, and Miss Marjorie 
McGaw. Last Wednesday evening 
the new members were welcomed 
at a dessert preceding the first 
board meeting, held at the home 
of Mr. and Mrs. J. Waldo Bond on 
Mason street. Mr. Harlan F. 
Grant, the Players’ director, was 
also invited to the meeting to dis- 
cuss proposed plays for the season, 
as was Mrs. Grant, make-up artist 
for the Players. 

Mrs. George E. Connor is the 


newly elected chairman of the 
board for 1953-54, with Mrs. J. 
Waldo Bond, treasurer; Mrs. John 
B. Wills, secretary; Mr. Robert P. 
Blake, play reading chairman. 


METHODIST MISSION 
AND VISITATION 

The Crawford Memorial Meth- 
odist Church is now in the midst 
of preparation for a Preaching Mis- 
sion October 11th through the 16th. 
Special services will be held on 
Sunday morning and then Tuesday, 
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 
evenings at 8 p. m. The whole pur- 
pose of the program is in seeking 
to reactivate the members of the 
church in the Holy Habits of Chris- 
tian living. Dr. Otis Maxfield of 
Springfield will be the guest speak- 
er. Bishop John Wesley Lord has 
stated that “failure to observe 
Spiritual disciplines in our lives 
weakens our Christian witness be- 
fore the community and the world.” 

In a world of speedy living, one 
thing should be a must in 
every man’s life — his holy habits. 
Prayer, family devotions, grace at 
meal time, following Christian 
principles in all our actions, church 
attendance, supporting the church- 
es sacrificially out of the material 
blessings which come from God’s 
hands — these and other habits be- 
come an important antidote to the 
corrosive forces of modern life. 
When we get too busy to carry out 
the philosophy of life which we be- 
lieve in, then we are too busy. 

So the Preaching Mission will bi 
centered in these things as related 
to our home, business and social 
life. 

Covenants must be made by the 
members of the church and it is= 
hoped that, from the renewing of 
our covenants, there will come a 
new spiritual surge which will not 
only affect the church, but the com- 
munity as well. 

Included in the program will be 
a special emphasis in church at- 
tendance for ten weeks following 
the Mission. 

Dr. Maxfield, formerly with the 
Pastoral Counseling Center in Bos- 
ton, will be on hand for private 
counseling, wherever needed.

COOKS' KITCHEN TOUR 


An invitation to the Cooks’ Tour 
of six Winchester Kitchens, to be 
open from two to five on Thurs- 
day, October fifteenth, has been 
extended to homemakers in Win- 
chester by the local Mount Holyoke 
Club. 

Mrs. Richard Sawyer is Ticket 
Cheirmnn for this scholarship 
benefit. 

The six homes to be opened offer 
a wide variety of interest ranging 
from oldest to newest in Winches- 
ter. The kitchens vary from large 
to small, from Early American to 
Modern. 

The home of Mrs. George E. Con- 
nor, 403 Main street, which was 
built in 1740 and remodelled in 
1042, is the former Black Horse 
Tavern Black Smith Shop. One of 
the oldest homes in Winchester, its 
charmingly remodelled kitchen is 
in keeping with its early origin. 

In the home of Mrs. J. Norton 
Kidder at 18 Brooks street will be 
seen n newly remodelled All Elec- 
tric kitchen, glamorized by color, 
truly a picture-book kitchen. 

At 15 Lnkeview road, where the 
efficient All-Purpose kitchen has 
been remodelled, Mrs. Joseph Dol- 
ben will be hostess to Mrs. James 
Milligan of the Herb Lore Shop in 
Lexington. Mrs. Milligan will talk 
nformally about herbs and their 
uses, and will display her many at- 
tractive herb creations. 

Mrs. Robert M. Stone will show 
the All Electric kitchen in her 1953 
Cape Cod home at 10 Wood lane, 
a new road off Fernway. The de- 
signer of this unusually artistic 
and personalized kitchen was Rob- 
ert Minot, Associate Architect with 
Royal Barry Wills. 

Another modern home kitchen 
will be on view at the home of Mrs. 
Harold Lewis at 43 Emerson road. 
Jerome Bailey Foster was the ar- 
chitect for this All Pine, All Elec- 
tric kitchen designed around a 
functional work plan. 

At 29 Woodsidc road, Mr. Wnl- 
don B. Hersey will exhibit his col- 
lection of antique kitchen imple- 
ments. Mr. and Mrs. Hersey re- 
modelled their Family Activity 
kitchen last year. Here, the use 
of modern design adds interest to 
the Early American atmosphere 
created by Architect Jerome Bailey 
Foster.

PATENT FOR WEAVER 


Eastman A. Weaver of 326 Main 
street was the recipient on Septem- 
ber 15, 1953, of U. S. patent No. 
2,051,939, entitled 'Apparatus For 
Measuring The Contents Of Lnige 
Tanks”. 

This invention pertains to nn im- 
proved gauge for measuring the 
contents of large tanks such as are 
used for the storage of gasoline, 
liquid fuel and the like. These 
tanks are provided with floating 
roofs or covers in order to limit the 
escape of the volatile contents. It 
should be noted also that it is cus- 
tomary to maintain a layer of 
water on the tank floor, which is 
seldom perfectly tight, because 
such water takes care of seepage 
and collects sludge which may have 
settled to the bottom. 

Two types of gauges have been 
in common use for measuring the 
contents of the foregoing tanks. In 
one of them, a float, with a pulley 
nnd line assembly, is employed to 
indicate the top level of the liquid; 
and, in the other, provision is made 
for a pressure gauge that is con- 
nected to piping near the bottom of 
the tank. However, according to 
Mr. Weaver, although the latter 
method gives a correction for the 
temperature nnd density of the 
liquid, nevertheless, neither of the 
processes makes adjustments for 
the temperature of the tank walls, 
the gaseous pressure over the con- 
tents, or the layer of water on the 
bottom. 

To overcome these limitations 
and inaccuracies of the prior prac- 
tice, Mr. Weaver has devised a 
novel apparatus which, in its essen- 
tials, comprises a fluid-tight en- 
closure or "pick-up” with a defor- 
mable member therein that effects 
variations in the electrical charac- 
teristics of a circuit to thus provide 
the desired reading. Because of its 
location within the tank and the 
provision of a flexible tube that ex- 
tends to the upper vapor space, this 
"pick - up” device automatically 
makes corrections for the usual er- 
rors due to the above-mentioned 
factors. It is claimed also that the 
arrangement of this invention is 
highly accurate in its results, effi- 
cient and reliable in operation, and 
easy to check, adjust, repair and 
replace. 

This patent has been assigned to 
Comstock and Westcott, Inc., Cam- 
bridge, Mass. 


Mr. and Mrs. Ralph R. Meigs of 
Hancock street are back in town 
after driving their daughter, Jen- 
nifer to Providence, R. I., where 
she enrolled on September 20, in 
the Rhode Island School of Design. 
After leaving their daughter at the 
school, Mr. and Mrs. Mqigs drove 
on to Storrs, Conn., for a week’s 
vacation.

NEEDLEWORK GUILD 

1 

It is in the spirit of service that 
the Needlework Guild of America, 
through its National Headquarters 
in Philadelphia, has announced the 
week of October 4th to 10th as 
National Membership Week. Dur- 
ing that week in the approximately 
C’M) cities and towns across the 
country, where this Charitable Or- 
ganization carries on its vital work, 
Needlework Guild Branches will en- 
deavor to interest more people to 
become members. 

The basis of membership is one 
of the unique features of the 
Needlework Guild. Membership 
consists in giving at least two new 
articles, once a year, usually in the 
fall. Kach Guild Branch collects 
new articles and distributes them 
to local needy families, Institutions 
and Welfnrc Agencies in its own 
Community. 

Needlework Guild’s annual as- 
sistance helps many hospitals, or- 
phanages, schools, visiting nurses, 
missions, Red Cross Chapters and 
social service workers, to provide 
for the needy in their care. With 
spiraling maintenance costs, many 
institutions would find it impossible 
to provide the physical comfort and 
psychological boost which warm, 
new clothing gives. 

The Needlework Guild is the only 
charitable organization affiliated 
with the American Red Cross, with 
which it has cooperated in many 
emergencies and disasters. It also 
has close ties with the Camp Fire 
Girls, Girl Scouts, General Fcder- j 
ation of Women’s Clubs and many 
other outstanding women and j 
youth groups. The Guild is non- 
sectarian; its members represent 
all races, creeds and colors, in all 
walks of life. Membership is open I 
to all in this "Charity that Helps | 
other Charities”. 

What does it all add up to? In 
1952 the Guild distributed approxi- 
mately one and a quarter million 
garments. 

For further information please 
get in touch with: Mrs. Wayne B. 
Thompson, president, 3 Crescent 
road; or Mrs. Ben R. Schneider, 
secretary, 21 Winthrop street. 


DISCUSSION GROUP AT LIBRARY 


A weekly discussion group on 
"World Politics” will start in Win- 
chester at the Public Library next 
Wednesday, October 7, under the 
auspices of the American Foun- 
dation for Political Education. 

Running ten weeks, and designed 
primarily to develop each indiv- 
idual’s own informed opinion on 
political affairs, the series will be 
based on selected readings from 
the world's major political thinkers, 
and led informally by two trained 
leaders. 

What causes war? How can it 
be prevented? Can we have both 
freedom and political security? 
What should we expect from our 
American foreign policy? These 
are some of the questions to be ex- 
plored. 

The program was first developed 
by the American Foundation for 
Political Education in Chicago six 
years ago. Now nation-wide and 
underwritten by the Fundfor Adult 
Education, established by the Ford 
Foundation, it is administered in 
eastern Massachusetts by the 
Greater Boston World Politics 
Committee and the United Council 
on World Affairs, under the spon- 
l sorship of the World Peace Foun- 
dation and Boston University. 

Membership is open to the gen- 
eral public, and there are no edu- 
cational prerequisites, but for the 
sake of good general discussion 
each group must he limited to 32. 
Further information on the pro- 
gram can be supplied by William 
Trainor, Jr., at the Office of the 
United Council on World Affairs, 
355A Boylston street, Boston 14, 
COpley 7-6075. 


SOCIAL SERVICE GUILD 


The fall meeting of the Social 
Service Guild of the First Congre- 
gational Church will be held next 
Tuesday, October 6th, in Chidley 
Hall. A delicious luncheon will be 
served at one o’clock, followed by 
the regular meeting at two o’clock. 
Mrs. Clarence R. Wickerson, Dir- 
ector, will preside, and the worship 
service will be conducted by Miss 
Grace W. Pound, 

The speaker of the afternoon 
will be Mrs. Amy Powell of the 
Family Society of Greater Boston. 
Mrs. Powell is head of the depart- 
ment of older people. She will 
speak on "The Second Forty 
Years”. 

A cordial invitation is extended 
to all the women of the church and 
their friends. 

For reservation for luncheon 
tickets, please call Mrs. Clarence 
R. Wickerson, Winchester 6- 
0744-M, or Mrs. Daniel P. Morse, 
Winchester 6-1530. 


Mr. George L. Connor of Pros-

member at a meeting of Precinct 
3 held Monday evening to replace 
Harris Richardson, Jr., who has re- 
signed.

Mrs. Warren Hunt. Mrs. Andon is 
teaching the class in Nursery and

cializing in psychological testing of 
children. For many years Mrs. 
Andon has been head of the pre-

School at Old South Church. It is 
a privilege to have the benefit of 
her instruction nnd experience. 

Mrs. Warren Hunt leads the class 
in primary department methods

teachers are finding fresh inspir- 
ation and workable ideas for use in 
their own Church classes. Mrs. 
Hunt is a graduate of Wheelock 
College. Her husband is rector of 
St. John’s Episcopal Church in 
Jamaica Plain and she is Super-

ing the needs and problems of their 
boys and girls.

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS 

A first-hand report on the Win- 
chester school building program 
will be the subject of the opening 
general meeting of the League of 
Women Voters, Wednesday, Octo- 
ber 7th, at the home of Mrs. How- 
ard Chidley, Myopia Hill. Speak- 
ers will be Mr. William J. Speers, 
Jr., chairman of the building com- 
mittee for the Junior and Senior 
High Schools, Mr. Joseph W. But- 
ler, Jr., chairman of the Parkhurst 
building committee, and Mr. Harry 
V. Gilson, Superintendent of 
Schools. 

The school building program is 
one of the community problems in 
which the League has maintained 
a continuing concern for some 
years. Any woman who is inter- 
ested in learning more about this 
and other kinds of responsible par- 
ticipation in government is invited 
to call the League’s membership 
chairman, Mrs. Thomas M. Hennes- 
sey, at Winchester 6-2828. 

The first League Board meeting 
of the year was held on September 
23, at the home of Mrs. Leonard 
Mead. Many League members at- 
tended the state-wide Fall Confer- 
ence at Worcester on September 
30. Mrs. William W. Davies, pres- 
ident of the League conducted 
the part of the conference on public 
relations. 

An orientation meeting, designed 
to acquaint new and prospective 
members with League activities 
past and present, was held on Mon- 
day evening, September 28, at the 
home of Mrs. Wilbert E. Under- 
wood, Ravenscroft road. 


Bob Varey, in his “Ramblings” 
sports column in last Friday’s Wo- 
burn Times picked three out of 
four, liking Concord over Winches- 
ter, Amesbury over Marblehead 
and Wakefield over Danvers. He 
picked Winthrop to beat Swamp- 
scott by a big score, and might have 
had four for four, except that Win- 
throp was playing Cambridge Latin 
instead of Swampscott, and lost! 
Still, how many of the experts pick 
three out of four. Nice going, Bob!

handsome gavel, which all Forum

gram to a close.

MYSTIC STAFF COOK-OUT 


The Mystic School staff and 
guests: Mrs. Forte, Virginia 

French, Tom McLean, Dick Raack, 
Ed. Geary, and Harold Dover, went 
to Lynn Beach Tuesday, the 22nd, 
for a supper cook-out. It was clear, 
cool and just right for cooking and 
eating hot dogs, hamburgers, fried 
onions, tossed and potato salads, 
cake and delicious hot coffee. 
Gladys Woods and Margaret Milli- 
can organized and did the cooking 
with the help of the men-folks as 
well as others. 

After eating there were two 
games of horseshoes, which finished 
by moonlight. That full moon com- 
ing up over the ocean was very 
beautiful. 

This was the first “fun get-to- 
gether” of the school year. Several 
more plans for good times during 
the year are under way. It is a 
pleasant way to relax and get to 
know one another outside of school.

ber since its formation, is very ac- 
tive and during the last year, 
problems and policies of libraries 
throughout the Commonwealth 
have been carefully studied. 

Twice during the past year, 
President Eisenhower (in his Dart- 
mouth Speech and in his letter to 
the American Library Association) 
has cited the challenge and oppor- 
tunity which the free public library

arc becoming more and ifiore ac- 
tively aware of their opportunities

METHODIST 

SPIRITUAL LIFE MISSION 


The Crawford Memorial Method- 
ist Church is making final plans for 
its Spiritual Life Mission, which be- 
gins next Tuesday evening at 8 
p. m. Services will also be held 
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 
at the same hour and the final ser- 
vice will take place the following 
Sunday, which is being designated 
as Family Sunday. The Mission is 
for the purpose of deepening the 
Christian life experience. 

The church feels its responsibi- 
lity in nurturing the Christian life 
and this special emphasis is de- 
signed to help the church in this 
work with the active, inactive, and 
casual members. 

It has been said that we must 
form spiritual habits or our souls 
will die. The observance of Holy 
Habits in one’s life has become a 
necessity, if one is to survive the 
corrosive forces of our times. Fath- 
ers and mothers should not fail to 
see the tremendous value in train- 
ing the child to develop Holy Ha- 
bits, especially with juvenile delin- 
quency at a new high. 

Members of the church and 
friends of the community interested 
in these special meetings are wel- 
come to attend. 

Special stress is being placed 
upon family devotions, grace be- 
fore meals, prayer life, church life 
and other important habits of the 
Christian life. 

Discussions will follow each ser- 
vice and Rev. Maxfield will be avail- 
able for personal interviews or 
counseling.

year, Mrs. Reynolds sends the fol- 
lowing message to its members and 
to the friends of the Republican 
Party: 

“People are prone to be lax be- 
tween elections, but may we remind 
you what a task it was to get the 
elephant on his feet and moving 
for 1952. Don’t let us all lapse 
into our typical apathy again. 

This club is a working organiz- 
ation, educationally and financially. 
It is for your benefit. It is to have 
meetings that keep the Winchester 
women informed so that they can 
be an accurate source of intelligent 
information on the activities of the 
Republican Administration, on both 
State and National levels. By 
knowing the facts and aims of our 
Republican leaders, the meetings 
ran better promote the interests of 
the party.”

HARRIERS EDGE WOBURN 
27 TO 28 


The traditional clash between 
I Winchester and Woburn cross 
I country teams Inst Friday resulted 
in a torrid race with the Red and 
Black edging Woburn by the nar- 
rowest margin in recent years. 

The locals traveled to Woburn to 
race an always dangerous Woburn 
team. The long haul started with 
37 runners breaking away to a fast 
start on the long and rugged Wo- 
burn course. 

The three top Orange and Black 
men, Glenville, McDonald and 
Dineen, took over the lead at the 
start and gradually pulled out well 
ahead at the midway mark. 

After the second half of the race 
began Lou Farrell and Captain 
John Becker began to challenge the 
leading trio and on the long down 
hill drop moved ahead to the one 
and two positions and proceeded to 
increase their lead to a substantial 
margin. 

In the la9t half mile Lou opened 
up, despite the fact he was still 
taped up from an injury incurred 
a week ago, and came on to win in 
the fastest time ever run on the 
Woburn course, 15m 24s. Becker 
closed fast for a strong second but 
then Woburn runners took the next 
four spots and the race was in 
doubt until a strong finish by 
Borggaard, Bob Becker and Hank 
Morgan in 7th, 8th and 9th positions 
brought victory to Winchester. 

The JV team showed excellent 
balance as they swept the first five 
places to score a 15 to 44 victory. 
Charlie Govostes landed the num- 
ber one spot. 

An informal race preceded the 
main event in which several fresh- 
man runners from each school took 
part. The race was won by a Wo- 
burn runner but several Winches- 
ter boys showed promise for the 
future led by Dauphinais who fin- 
ished in 3rd place.

WINCHESTER AT WMTHROP 

Winchester High journeys to 
Winthrop Saturday for its annual 
football game with Winthrop High 
School, commencing at the unholy 
hour of 1:30. Local fans will do 
well to take off betimes, if 
they want to arrive at the Beach 
City in time to enjoy the thrill of 
the kickoff wih F. M. Raymie Hay- 
ward, who holds strong views about 
being present and decently seated 
when the pigskin soars aloft at the 
opening whistle. 

Winchester ought to be an even 
money choice to win this one, after 
the Indians’ showing against 
Watertown last week-end, b u t 
thinking back to Concord, it is still 
well to remember that this year’s 
team is very green nnd as such un- 
predictable. The boys will have to 
improve on their Concord showing 
to beat any one, but as they played 
against Watertown, mistakes, nnd 
all, there arc no teams remaining 
on the schedule that should be odds- 
on favorites to scalp the Indians. 

Winthrop isn’t as strong as last 
year, nnd it is just as well, for the 
team that ran up 28 points on Win- 
chester in a losing game cause in 
1952 would be too good for this 
year’s eleven at this stage of its 
development. Winchester played 
its best ball of the season against 
Winthrop last year. 

The Beach Towners have lost 
both their games to date, to Cam- 
bridge Latin, 13-6, and to powerful 
Amesbury, 28-6. 

Coach Knowlton will probably 
field the same team that started 
against Watertown, and is by no 
means holding Winthrop cheaply. 
Winchester has generally had tho, 
dickens of a scrap with Winthrop, 
even though winning a majority of 
its games from the boys by the sea- 
shore. This year’s contest should 
be no exception. 

Don’t forget that starting hour, 
1:30. That’s right, 1:30!

WINCHESTER TIED WATERTOWN 
13-13 

BALL ON VISITORS ONF. YARD 
LINE AS GAME ENDED 


Winchester tied Watertown, 13- 
13, last Saturday afternoon as some 
3.0C0 delighted or stunned parti- 
sans of the two teams saw the In- 
dians play the vaunted conquerors 
of Class A Brockton into the ground 
and have the ball at the visitors 
one yard line, first and goal, as 
time ran out. 

The Indians well could have won 
the game, provided the plays se- 
lected by the second-guesscrs went 
all right at the end of both halves 
of a gruelling contest played in 90 
degree heat. Many criticized Win- 
chester for not taking to the air at 
once when they had the ball just 
outside the Watertown eleven, 
second down, with only inches need- 
ed for a first down. 

Watertown had its defenses 
jammed to stop the expected buck, 
and a decently executed pass into 
the end zone could hardly have 
failed. After the game Quarter- 
back Dave Pratt said he called for 
the pass on second down, but a 
fumble in the snapback from cen- 
ter prevented the play and he then 
went for the first down, Murphy 
just bucking for the necessary 
inches. 

At this point Coach Knowlton 
sent in Lindsey, a fast runner, for 
a pitchout left. The speedy colored 
boy nearly made it, being tackled 
at the Watertown one. Just one 
good block would have gotten him 
into pay dirt and meant the ball 
game. 

Again at the end of the first half 
the Indians put on a thrilling goal 
line stand after Joe Bellino saved 
a sure-fire touchdown with the div- 
ing clutch that just spilled Gergo- 
dian from behind, after the speedy 
Watertown co-captain had sped 
from the Winchester 49 down the 
field past every one. 

Gergodian sprawled to earth in- 
side the Winchester 10, and from 
there the Scarlet in three tries 
reached the two. Big Frank Basile 
tried to buck for the touchdown, 
but the Winchester line smothered 
the try and the Indians took over 
just outside the one yard line. 

Pratt broke through on a sneak 
for five, but the eagle eye of Ref- 
eree Hawkes detected a hack il- 
legally in motion on the play and 
the bull went back to less than a 
yard from the goal line. Murphy 
got about a foot and on second 
down Pratt called for a kick, Bel- 
lino getting away a short boot that 
Basile ran back less than five yards 
to the Winchester 20. 

With time running out, Hill hit 
Basile with a pass in the right flat, 
the receiver being wrestled outside 
by Pratt at the Winchester three, 
stopping the clock. Once again 
Hill faded and passed, this time to 
LoPrete who made the catch in the 
end zone with no one near him. 
Mastrangelo’s try for the extra 
point from placement just snuck 
over. 

That tied the game and many 
fans critizised the Indian strategy 
of kicking on second down, claim- 
ing that with only 28 seconds to 
play they should have rushed at 
least three times in an attempt to 
run out the half before giving up 
the ball. Of course the poor kick

from the end zone helps make this 
strategy look even better. 

Winchester made nine first downs 
to eight for Watertown, rushing 
for 166 yards to 221 for the Scarlet. 
The Indians completed two of six 
passes for 62 yards and a touch- 
down while Watertown made two 
of eight passes good, also including 
a successful touchdown pass. The 
visitors were penalized once for 
five yards and fumbled once. Win- 
chester lost 30 yards in very costly 
penalties and recovered its only 
fumble. 

The Indians showed questionable 
judgment toward the end of the 
third quarter when Bellino got off 
a kick from the Watertown 39 into 
the end zone. The Scarlet was off- 
side on the play, but Winchester 
elected to let the kick stand and 
the ball went in play at the Water- 
town 20, the Scarlet advancing to 
its 43. 

Here Hill attempted a sneak left, 
but was forced back toward his goal 
line where he fumbled as he was

was recovered by Winchester at the 
Watertown 29. Linesman Wenner 
gave the recovery to the Indians, 
but Referee Hawkes over ruled him 
and gave the ball to Watertown, 
claiming the Scarlet player’s knee 
hit the ground while he had pos- 
session of the ball. 

Watertown kicked to Bellino who 
got back from his own 30 to the 
Watertown 46. Murphy bucked for 
a yard and O’Brien added another 
on an end around play. Bellino 
then drove to the Watertown 35 for 
the first down and after Haggerty 
had been stopped, hit off tackle for 
5. Then on a pitchout Bellino real- 
ly banged outside and down the 
side lines, being forced out of 
bounds at the Watertown 4. 

Murphy picked up a yard or two, 
but a clear Watertown offside was 
called by two of the officials. Once 
again Referee Hawkes overruled 
his fellow officials’ decision and 
penalized Winchester for drawing 
Watertown off side. 

This put the ball back on the 
nine, first and goal. Bellino picked 
‘ up two and then big Mike Murphy 
on a veer buck left powered over 
for the touchdown. Rotundi kicked 
the goal from placement with a 
high kick right through there, 
Lindsey holding. 

Watertown’s equalizer came just 
at the half as told above, and with 
the resumption of play in the third 
quarter both teams made first 
downs before Watertown had to 
kick. 

Bellino ran the kick back to bis 
22 and three plays later got away 
from his 25 to the 40 and first down. 
Haggerty picked up less than a 
yard and Bellino added only two 
before Pratt faded and from the 
midst of a flock of Watertown de- 
fenders miraculously arched off a 
pass that Dattilo grabbed away 
from a Watertown back at the 
Scarlet 35 and converted into a 
! touchtown, sprinting down the 
j Winchester sideline. Rotundi miss- 
i ed the conversion, 
j Winchester’s jubilation was short 
lived. Basile took Riordan’s kick-

off from his five to the Watertown 
42, and on the next play Gergodian 
on a sweep left, got away behind 
good blocking around the Indians’ 
right Hank. Reversing his field 
prettily, the little Scarlet speedster 
pulled away from several tacklers 
and once in the open easily outran 
every one to the goal line. 

With the score tied the try for 
the extra point by Mastrangelo was 
all important, and it was blocked 
squarely by Captain Riordan, who 
broke through the big Scarlet line 
all alone to make the save. 

What may have been a turning 
point in the game came early in the 
final quarter, when Winchester, 
continuing a drive that commenced 
before the teams changed goals 
after the Watertown score in the 
third quarter, advanced from its 35 
to the Watertown 44. 

Murphy picked up four, Bellino 
failed to gain and a screen pass, 
that properly executed could have 
gone all the way, just failed to 
make first down. With less than a 
yard necessary for first down Pratt 
was stopped on a sneak and Water- 
town took over, the placing of the 
ball deciding a very close decision. 

The Scarlet had to kick and 
Winchester started from its 32. 
Bellino made a first down in two 
tries but then with two minutes to 
go, had to kick and got away a 
beauty from midfield outside at the 
Watertown five. 

Hill sneaked for three and then 
Basile got out to the 30. Here Hill, 
trying for the win, took to the air 
and Captain Riordan intercepted his 
pass, getting back to the Water- 
town 21, and nearly going all the 
way. 

Bellino drove through to just out- 
side the eleven, inches short of first 
down, setting the stage for the 
possible touchdown pass that the 
Indians didn’t try. The summary:

loss to the port of New York alone 
was estimated at a million dolldrs

ienced; laborers who would like to

support their families, didn’t dare 
to cross the picket lines. Travelers

The Selectmen’s announcement of 
the special town meeting to con- 
sider the appropriation of the 
$190,000 as the town’s share of the 
damages incurred by the construc- 
tion of the overhead railroad tracks 
through town and the diversionary 
highway through the Skillings es- 
tate, has posed the question of what 
happens if the town, either at the 
duly called meeting, or by referen- 
dum after the meeting, refuses to 
appropriate this money. The Star 
usked Chairman Greer of the Se- 
lectmen and he frankly said that 
he did not know. The problem 
then, he believes, would become the 
State’s, and though Mr. Greer felt 
that in view of action taken in con- 
nection with the construction of 
State highways, the Common- 
wealth would have the authority to 
proceed with the construction in 
Winchester, he refused a predic- 
tion of what its action would be if 
Winchester should now indicate it 
does not want the overhead. There 
is no doubt that some of those who 
have favored the great wall 
through Winchester are now not so 
sure they want it! 


IH APPRECIATION 


Consitution they promulgated liber- 
ty and freedom, guaranteed to all. 
The Consitution and the Bill of 
Rights were the priceless gifts to 
the people' from the minds of 
patriots. How far have we de- 
parted from the precepts and wis- 
dom of the effulgent beacon they 
raised for us, have our leaders be- 
come cowards unworthy of their 
heritage ? 

“Give me liberty or give me 
death,” said Patrick Henry. His 
was the spirit of the patriots of 
’76. Ill-equipped, ragged, and half- 
starved, they never faltered, 
fought on to the glorious victory 
of Yorktown, giving us the bless- 
ings of liberty and freedom. Shall 
we let them down? As affairs are 
proceeding today, we may not long 
continue to sing with the old-time 
fervor, “My country ’tis of thee, 
sweet land of liberty.”

express my appreciation for the 
wonderful luncheon at my home, 
prepared by the Winchester Home- 
fronters, that greeted us when my 
son, Lt. Myer, was returned re- 
cently from Korea. Everything 
was so beautifully and completely 
served that it will always be a 
great pleasure to me to recall the 
thoughtfulness that went into it 
and the generosity of the many 
merchants and friends who added 
so much to the happiness of Allan’s 
return. 

My family join me in thanking 
you all for the bountiful repast and 
lovely floral decorations. There 
was not a thing for us to do but 
relax, eat 'and have a wonderful

always associate with your kind- 
ness.

FLOWERS APPRECIATED 


Editor of the Star: 

May I share, by means of your 
column, a letter which I have re- 
cent] y received ? Winchester 
flowers contributed to the Fruit and 
Flower Mission this summer were 
distributed through the South End 
House and the Norfolk House Cen- 
tre in Boston. The director of the 
Children’s Program at Norfolk 
House writes in part — 

“I have delivered the flowers my- 
self this summer with the eager 
help of some of our children, and 
have been amazed at the pleasure 
one bouquet can give to an old per- 
son, convalescent, or a mother in 
our neighborhood. I might add too 
that the children on our playground 
ask at 6 minute intervals on Tues- 
days, “Are the flowers here yet” 
and go proudly off the playground, 
sometimes bearing only three or 
four petunias. So thank you, we 
hope you’ll continue to lie ‘‘our back 
yard gardens.” 

This letter is especially intended 
as an individual thanks to each per- 
son who has contributed so gen- 
erously to the work of the Flower 
Mission during this past season. I 
have expressed my gratitude to the 
weekly chairmen. Miss Hattie 
Snow and Mr. Charles Forester 
have fatihfully contributed flowers 
each week. The Baggage Master 
at the Station has been equally 
faithful in his handling of the 
hampers. 

Despite the dry gardens, we have 
had many other people who have 
experienced the lift that an early 
morning jaunt to the station with 
a small bouquot can give to one’s 


Editor of the Star: 

In the October 2nd issue of the 
Winchester Star, the Selectmen 
have given notice of a Public Hear- 
ing on October 15 to discuss the 
land-taking on account of the pro- 
posed Grade Crossing elimination. 
This Public Hearing precedes the 
Special Town Meeting called for 
October 22 to vote on this item. 

This article of October 2 dis- 
closed the estimated cost of the 
railroad project plus the cost to the 
Town of Winchester for its part 
(land-taking in the amount of 
$190,000. 

The Selectmen also state that 
later a Town Meeting is to be held 
on the school construction project 
which no doubt will call for a siz- 
able appropriation. These two 
projects would boost our tax rate \ 
to a point as yet not known. Edu- 
cation and school buildings are more 
important than the inconvenience 
of delay at the present railroad 
crossing. Schools should come 
first. 

It is hoped that careful consider- 
ation will be given by all tax-pay- 
ers and it is very important that 
they attend this hearing to be held 
Thursday evening, October 15, at 
7:45 o’clock at the Town Hall to 
learn what the over-all cost will be. 
While the estimated cost of the 
railroad project is $6,000,000 it is 
doubtful if a bid can be obtained 
within this amount. In any event, 
the raising of the tracks is an ill- 
conceived project and at a cost to 
the State and the Town that is not 
justified. 


from the bow is the main super- 
structure the top deck of which is 
the Chart Room and Bridge. Im- 
mediately below this is the Boat 
Deck. In the middle of this are 
the Captain’s quarters consisting 
of Office, large Lounge and Cabin 
and Bath. On either side of the 
Captain’s quarters are two en- 
closed verandahs immediately un- 
der the open Bridge. A life boat on 
either side still leaves plenty of 
open deck space. 

Below the Boat Deck forward are 
three fair sized rooms. A Smoker, 
Lounge and Dining Room, the 
latter seating six in all. Imme- 
diately aft of the Dining Saloon 
is the Owner’s Suite which we oc- 
cupy and the Guest Room, both 
with private bathrooms complete. 
(You see this ship was not meant 
to carry passengers but the owner 
had built into it quarters in which 
he and his family could travel as on 
their private yacht.) On the other 
side of this deck are cabins for the 
senior officers, each with bath. 

On the main deck below are more 
cabins, rooms for the officers, an- 
other for the crew and the Officers’ 
Lounge. Near the stern on this 
same deck is *a deck house where 
lives the crew. Every man has his 
own individual cabin. There’s a 
bunk in each one, of course, and in 
addition a chair and desk and 
ample lockers for the men’s better 
clothes. (A separate locker room 
is provided for their working 
clothes.) There’s two rooms here 
with showers, etc. There’s a laun- 
dry with electric washing machine, 
irons, etc. which the men can use 
whenever they want. And there is 
a game and reading room for them. 
There they play cards and chess 
and enter Radio Chess Tourna- 
ments with other ships. Do you 
see now why the crew seems a 
j happy lot of men ? 

Yesterday I went below decks 
with the Chief Engineer to see the 
Engine Room because the Captain 
and Chief Engineer, having seen 
this ship grow from the keel up, 
are immensely proud of it as they 
have every right to be. 

The ship is driven by Diesel 
engine of seven cylinders. Each 
cylinder is about 25-inch bore with 
50-inch stroke. The maximum 


speed of the ship is about 15 knots. 
And that is enough for cargo ships 
because while a few can do up to 
20 knots, the North Atlantic is such 
that it is not often wise to try to 
go so fast. 

Well, the Engine Room is a mar- 
vel of planning. Here, too, of 
course, are the electric generators 
which have to be ample to supply

LINCOLN SCHOOL HEWS 


The Mothers’ Association of Lin- 
coln School had its Fall meeting of 
the year on Wednesday, September 
30, in the school auditorium. Each 
of the teachers was introduced to 
the group by their principal, Miss 
Cunningham, who also gave a short 
talk on the extreme importance of 
parent-teacher cooperation for chil- 
dren in the early grades. Our new 
Superintendent of Schools, Harry 
V. Gilson, was given a hearty wel- 
come on his initial visit to the 
group. 

Mrs. Kenneth Cullen, President! 
of the Lincoln School Mothers’ As- j 
sociation presided over the meet- 
ing that followed where prelimin- 1 
ary plans for the annual Hallo- 
we’en Frolic were discussed. She ! 
introduce her Board Members as 
the following:

Nominating. Mr*. Paul O’Neil 

After the meeting refreshments 
were served by the social commit- 
tee while Mr. Gilson, the teachers 
and mothers had a chance to chat 
informally, in what was accepted 
by all to have been a most success- 
ful first meeting of the year. 


ing at once. There’s a 
supplying heat for the ship and hot 
fresh water for the baths. There 
are condensers and oil filters and 
air compressors and a multitude of 
the auxiliary equipment all so 
placed that the ship is kept on an 
even keel, each one readily acces- 
sible so that if necessary repairs 
could be made at sea. 

The Galley is on the main deck. 
Immediately below is the store 
room where the food is kept in 
lockers and refrigerators. Not a 
single bit of space in this ship is 
wasted. The Galley (kitchen) 
would delight any housekeeper. 
Looking aft and therefore pro- 
tected from spray, it has four 
large windows over the counter 
where food is prepared. Ordinary 
cooking is done on a large old 
burner stove. The oven is electric. 
And here again is every needed 


electric facility for mixing, paring 
potatoes, etc. 

To add to the beauty of the 
cabins and general rooms of the 
ship is the cabinet work. Instead 
of painted steel partitions, the 
walls are panelled in mahogany 
nnd Circassian walnut. The work- 
manship is of the best and the 
furniture is uphosltered in fabrics 
made on Swedish hand looms. It 
just couldn’t be better on the Queen 
Mary. 

And now about what we do 
aboard. 

First of all, meals. The Captain, 
Chief Engineer nnd we three pas- 
sengers take meals together in the 
Dining Room with a special 
steward to wait table. The Cap- 
tain suggested the following rou- 
tinc. 

Coffee at 7 to 7:30 (in your cabin 
if you wanted it), breakfast nt 
9:30, afternoon tea at 2:30 nnd din- 
ner at 5:30. We could have had it 
different if we wanted it but that 
seemed a good plan. Each meal 
lasts an hour to an hour-and-a-half 
because they all begin with Smor- 
gasbord and then a main course 
which is different each meal. Rut 
the time passes quickly for these 
officers have been over much of the 
globe, their English is perfect nnd 
their tales of experiences are in- 
teresting and full of new things 
which we are hearing for the first 
time. 

Son after leaving port the Cap- 
tain said “You may go on the 
bridge whenever you wish”. So 
we have the complete run of the 
ship from top to main deck. The 
weather for the most part, even 
though it is February, has been 
mild enough to spend much time on 
deck. We’ve had a couple of days 
when the roll was pretty had at 
times but mostly it has been rea- 
sonably calm and no one has been 
uncomfortable. 

One more reason why we take 
freighters is this. When we booked 
passage, it was from New York to 
Genoa direct with no stops. As 
can always be expected, we were a 
couple of days late in sailing but 
when we boarded the ship we 
learned that we are stopping at 
Oran in Algeria. Perhaps when we 
get there we’ll find some additional 
stops before we reach Genoa. 

You see, it’s a sort of vagabond 
voyage. It’s like having your own 
yacht almost with the responsibil- 
ity of ownership. The latter, how- 
ever, has its compensations also 
apparently. We learn that this 
ship cost in Sweden about 1,500,000 
— American! It’s been on the sea 
but 10 months and it has already 
pretty well paid for itself! Not a 
bad return for some 1 responsibility. 


110 West 35.26 North 

I want to tell you some more 
about this ship and the crew and 
the cruise. Except for the second 
nnd third days (this is the tenth 
day and tomorrow early we should 
he going through the Straits of Gi- 
braltar) the weather has been com- 
fortably warm and the sea unbe- 
lievably smooth. Yesterday is was 
glassy and almost looked as if oil 
had been poured on it to keep it 
quiet. We’ve seen porpoises dis- 
porting alongside and twice we saw 
turtles swimming alongside, trying 
desperately to get further from the 
ship’s side. 

Saturday night the Captain and 
his brother put on a moving picture 
show of Swedish scenes with sound, 
followed by pictures they had taken 
of life aboard ship and pictures of 
their homes nnd families. Inci- 
dentally, they and the crew will 
probably not get home for another 
year. But while we were at dinner 
yesterday, the radio man came to 
the dining room to summon the 
Captain and his brother, the Chief 
Engineer, to the Radio Room. “I 
have your family on the telephone 
for you now, sir”. Every other 
day they talk with those from 
whom they are separated. 

Last night after dinner, just be- 
fore and after the change of watch, 
they showed the films to the mem- 
bers of the crew who gathered in 
the lounge. One picture which in- 
terested them mightily was a foot- 
ball game between their own crew 
and that of another Swedish 
freighter when both were at Balti- 
more. There is a regular Soccer 
League to which all the Swedish 
ships belong. Each ship has its 
distinctive uniform and they are 
very proud of their teams. There 
are also tournaments for Ping 
Pong and Chess and in the latter 
this ship stands next to the top. 

The Officers are all proud of their 
crew. The Captain refers to them 
as “Good Boys all”. Yesterday the 
Chief Officer who speaks beautiful 
English asked me “Does Peter 
speak English to you?” (Peter is 
the Saloon Steward about 21 years 
old.) I answered that he spoke 
little but seemed to understand 
pretty well. ‘‘He should speak 
English to you”, he said, “I am 
teaching him English”. Then I 
learned that the Chief is holding 
regular classes for the crew in 
English. 

These boys all s?gn on Tor at 
least a year and if you were on 
deck this morning you could see 


what a wonderful training they got. 

The crew, including officers, 
numbers 32. Except for leaving 
port and entering port nnd in bad 
weather the ship is steered by an 
automatic pilot. That means that 
a normal watch in good weather 
consists of only four men. A mate 
and one man on the bridge, an en- 
gineer, and motor man. There arc 
three watches so that leaves about 
10 to 20 men who work an eight- 
hour day hut no work on Sundnys. 

Well, today they are mostly on 
dock. Some are chipping paint, 
other are using electric brushes to 
clean the rust off while others 
sweep very carefully before they 
begin to paint. Upon the bridge 
just now the carpenter and his 
helper are putting in some cabinet 
work. On the boat deck the elec- 
trician is doing a welding job while 
two others are puttering over an 
engine room ventilator, a sort of 
steel shutter to prevent the intake 
of rain or spray. The Saloon nnd 
Cabin steward is up on deck dry 
cleaning the floor rugs. Everyone 
seems to have his job and knows 
what is expected of him. 

A couple of days ago we sailed 
through the Azores. We sighted 
the island of Fayal about 4 p. m. 
3500 feet high, it was topped in 
clouds. Then the following morn- 
ing we came in sight of the island 
San Miguel. Somewhere between 
the two about midnight the engines 
stopped. Just a little something 
didn’t sound right to the Chief En- 
gineer so they stopped the engines. 
In a couple of hours a minor part 
had been made and installed and 
everything was running smoothly 
again. 

The A 7 .ores are interesting. They 
cover a much larger area than I 
realized. Nearly 250,000 people 
live on them. All of volcanic ori- 
gin, they really stand up. San 
Miguel has cliffs on the north side 
at least that must rise from 400 
to 600 feet out of the sea. There 
on a slanting plateau we could see 
villages all in white which seemed 
to be \ to IVj miles apart. But in 
between were deep ravines so that 
I think it would be fairly arduous 
to travel from one to another. 
Above the cliffs and extending in- 
land the land seemed to be terraced 
to where the timber began. This 
seemed to run clear to the top. 

In the early morning sunlight, 
the grey of the cliffs, the deep blue 
of the ocean hacked up by the light 
green of the fields and the shadows 
in the ravines spotted with the 
clusters of white houses made a 
beautiful sight. 

Mediterranean Sea 

We arc now through the Straits 
of Gibraltar. Early this morning 
we first came in sight of the Spa- 
nish coast as we passed Cape Tra- 
falgar where Lord Nelson won 
everlasting fame. On the other 
side we could see the North African 
coast. Both coasts are rather high 
and as we got further east and in 
sight of Gibraltar, the highlands in 
southern Spain the mountains rose 
to about 3500 feet. Viewed from 
the strait which here is not much 
over 7 miles wide they loomed up 
very impressively and right oppo- 
site on the African coast there were 
places where the cliffs must have 
been at least 750 feet high. 

The weather was pretty good, the

sea smooth. We were within 2 
miles of Gibraltar itself as we 
passed it but not from the side 
from which the usual view is shown. 
That we hope to see ns we swing 
around on our trip in Spain. Now 
we are out in open sea again nnd 
will see land no more until we 
reach Oran in the morning. There 
1 will try to mail this.

’’Are Sin. Disensc, and Death Real?’* is 
the challenging subject of the Lesson-Ser- 
mon at Christian Science services Sunday. 

Among selections to be rend from the 
Bible will be vers a from the 21st chapter 
of Revelation, including tin* following 
pnsnnge : 

“And God shnll wipe nwny all tears from 
their eyes ; nnd there shall be no more 
death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither 
shnll there he any more pain: for the for- 
mer things arc passed away” (verse 4>. 

From "Science and Health with Key to 
the Scriptures” by Mary linker Eddy the 
following explanatory parage will he read: 

"This is Scriptural authority for con- 
cluding thnt such a recognition of being is, 
nnd has been, possible to men in this 
present state of existence — thnt we ran 
become conscious, here nnd now. of a ces- 
sation of death, sorrow, and pain" (573:23- 
27 >. 

The Golden Test is from Psalms: 

"God be merciful unto us, nnd bless us ; 
nnd enuse his face to shine upon us ; that 
thy way mny be known upon earth, thy 
suving health among all nations” (67:1,2).

Although for the Inst eight years 
Korea has been a land divided, until 
hnlf a century ago it was one of 
the world’s most independent, 
homogeneous and stable nations. 

When the industrial north was 
split from the agricultural south by 
the 38th-parallel division in 1945, 
Korea’s economic life line - — ex- 
change of power, lumber, minerals 
and paper from the north for 
south-grown rice — was severed. 
Since that time, neither region has 
been able to benefit from its re- 
sources. 

A narrow mountainous penin- 
sula, Korea stretches 660 miles 
south of the Manchurian border be- 
tween the Yellow Sea and the 
Japan Sea to within 110 miles of 
Kyushu, Japan’s southernmost 
island. The country covers 85,250 
square miles, about one and one 
half times the size of Florida, 
which it roughly resembles in 
shape, says the National Geogra- 
phic Society. 

Rich In Power, Minerals 

Before World War II, Korean 
industry — concentrated mainly in 
the north — was larger than that 
of either Mexico or Turkey. Its 
hydroelectric potential was estim- 
ated at 5 million kilowatts, more 
than the 1937 electrical output of 
either Italy or France. 

The land is known to hold highly 
strategic mineral reserves, largest 
in the Far East outside Manchuria. 
Fifteen years ago Korea produced 
about one-third of the world’s 
graphite. Gold production ran as 
high ns $50 million a year. Coal 
reserves are well over 1 Ms billion 
tons, and the iron ore reserve is 
estimated at more than a billion 
tons. 

But despite its industrial poten- 
tial, four-fifths of Korea’s people 
are farmers, committed to rice 
agriculture on the fertile mountain 
slopes. In 1940, the nation was the 
world’s fourth largest rice pro- 
ducer. 

Korea also ranked third in the 
world in commercial fishing in 1939. 
Some 75 kinds of edible fish are 
found along its 11,000-mile coast- 
line, where warm and cold currents 
meet. The country has 10 major 
all-weather ports, 29 secondary 
ones, and 139 other off-shore an- 
chorages. 

Ancient Heritage 

Korea’s legendary history goes 
back about 4,000 years. Its inde- 
pendent kingdoms were well known 
to the Chinese 3,000 years ago. 
From an early base of imported 
Chinese culture, the Koreans devel- 


oped an individual civilization with 
a separate language. Nicknamed 
the "Irish of the Orient” because 
of their spirited, independent na- 
ture, they have been engaged in a 
tragic struggle for freedom, unity 
and independence for half a cen- 
tury. 

A "hermit” nation during most 
of the 19th century when communi- 
cation with the rest of the world 
was discouraged, the country was 
claimed as a protectorate by the 
Japanese in 1905. Five years later 
it was annexed into the Japanese 
Empire, and its name changed to 
Chosen, which means, ironically, 
“Land of the Morning Calm.” 

In 1919 Korean nationalists 
staged a "passive revolution.” A 
republic-in-exile was established 
under the presidency of Dr. Syng- 
man Rheo. In 1948, the Rhee gov- 
ernment was recognized by the 
United Nations, although the 
northern half remained under Rus- 
sian domination. 

In 1950, Korea’s population was 
just under 30 million, ranking 12th 
in the world, with two-thirds of 
the populace in the area south of 
the 38th parallel. 

During the war, an estimated 1 
million in the southern zone were 
killed and another million perma- 
nently injured. North Korea is re- 
ported to have lost over 1% mil- 
lion. 

According to the Korean dele- 
gation to the United Nations, at 
least 1,200 of the nation’s 5,000 
villages have been wiped out, nnd 
52 — all but 3 — of the major 
cities critically damaged. The 
homeless and refugees in South 
Korea alone may number 8 million. 


A city of parks and palaces 
where 40 years ago was only a tiny 
fishing village on a pestilential 
swamp, Casablanca is one of the 
fastest growing cities in North 
Africa, the National Geographic 
Society reports. Capitalizing on a 
man-made harbor, the Moroccan 
metropolis is now estimated at 
more than half a million inhabi- 
tants. American ex-GI’s are 
among the flood of business men 
who have come to Casablanca since 
World War II to establish new en- 
terprises in an ancient land.

Until the atomic era, uranium 
was merely a byproduct of radium 
nnd- vanadium miqes, useful for 
coloring glass, pottery, nnd arti- 
ficial teeth. 


Seashore sand nt Rcppu in Jnpnn 
is black, hot to the touch, nnd gives 
off sulphur fumes. Thousands of 
people go there to lie for hours, 
even days, covered by the pulverise 
ed volcanic debris, which they hope 
will cure their ailments, the Na- 
tional Geographic Society says. 


Trior to June, 1950, when the 
war began, Korea ranked twelfth 
among conntries of the world in 
population, with some 30 million 
inhabitants, the National Geogra-

No one should expect

handling you risk the lives 
of your family as well as 
the destruction of your 
home and the loss of valu-

Sensible property 
owners do two things. 
They make fire prevention 
a day-by-day habit. They 
protect what they have 
from financial loss by in- 
suring against the peril of

METCALF UNION 


The first regular meeting of Met- 
calf Union, the high school fellow- 
ship at the Unitarian Church, will 
be held Sunday evening at 7 o'clock 
at the church. 

Highlight of the first meeting 
will be reports from delegates who 
attended the Summer conference at 
Star Island. Plans for the current 
year will be discussed, with em- 
phasis on programs, social activ- 
ities and a community project. 

The adult leader of the group, 
Mr. Herbert Black, will welcome 
the members, new and old, and will 
discuss the aims and ideals of the 
group. A period of fun and recrea- 
tion will follow the business ses- 
sion, with a worship service at the 
close of the meeting. 

Metcalf Union begins the new 
year of activities with real enthu- 
siasm for its own local program 
plus the activities of the South 
Middlesex Federation of Liberal 
Religious Youth. 


The Massachusetts Federation is 
having an Antiques Information

These meetings arc very inter- 
esting, and are illustrated with 
pieces from the collection. The 
Museum of the Otis House, where 
the meeting is held, has many ex- 
hibits which are well worth seeing. 

The group usually eats together 
in some convenient and well-known 
restaurant, and on Thursday after- 
noon a pilgrimage will be made to 
the Old North Church. 

The Bowdoln bus from Charles 
street stops at the Harrison Grey 
House, or it is convenient to the 
North Station.

son. During her travels in Europe 
this past summer, Mrs. Cart was

held their first meeting of the year 
on Sunday afternoon, October 4. 

At this time the following officers 
were elected: President, Douglas 
Gowdy; Vice-President, Sheryll 
McNeill; Secretary, Marion Pratt; 
Treasurer, Barbara Clark. 

Adults who will help with the

WINCHESTER CHILDREN 
REPRESENTED 


Four paintings by Winchester 
boys and girls are included in the 
very interesting collection on view 
at the Library until October 19. 
This group of self-portraits is part 
of a collection submitted by chil- 
dren of 57 countries at the invita- 
tion of the International Youth 
Library of Munich. Various sec- 
tions of the results are now on tour 
throughout the world. 

Adelaide Pittaway Sproul of 
Shady Hill School, Cambridge, 
pointed out that the paintings 
showed a remarkable similarity in 
technique as well as a universal 
quality; and that except in a few 
cases the paintings were not ap- 
parently much conditioned by their 
country of origin. 

The corner cases in the gallery 
were charmingly arranged by Mrs. 
Gretchen H. West who created an 
autumn mood and used a humorous 
approach to things children enjoy. 

At its opening meeting, members 
of the Winchester Art Association 
were reminded to bring examples 
of their work to the Library Gal- 
lery on October 16 for a Members’ 
Show to be exhibited from October 
19 to 28. 

Refreshments were served by 
Mrs. Richard Wyman as hostess 
and her committee which included 
Mrs. Fred Abbe, Mrs. Charles Ab- 
bott, Mrs. Blanche Barnard and 
Mrs. Waldo Lyon.

WINCHESTER HOMEFRONTERS 


TAG DAY 

Mrs. Charles E. Flynn, Chair- 
man. Mrs. Alexander DiPietro and 
Mrs. Sidney A. Burr Co-Chairmen, 
report a total of $342.90 collected 
on Tag Day. However, we have 
hoys in the service here and abroad 
to whom we would like to send a 
representative gift. All our boxes 
were delivered last year with the 
exception of one, which was re- 
turned and delivered to his home. 

We still linve Tag Day boxes out 
in the stores and if you have not 
yet given, won’t you become a 
“Homefronter” by dropping n 
donation in one of these or by send- 
ing to Mr. Ralph Hatch our treas- 
urer at the Winchester Savings 
Bank? 

We feel particularly grateful for 
the beautiful day we had for Tag 
Day, to the Winchester Star, the 
Chief of Police and police, the 
Board of Selectmen and their office, 
and Mr. Grindle, of the High School, 
for their co-operation. Also, the 
stores who have permitted us to 
place our boxes there. 

Mrs. Augliera and Mrs. Myers, 
mothers of our repatriated prison- 
ers of war, boosted our morale by 
collecting for two hours in the 
afternoon. 

Mrs. Piccolo, 73 years old, work- 
ed from 8:30 a. m. until 5:30 p. m. 
and collected $46.00. Her enthu- 
siasm was an inspiration to us all.

THURSDAY 


Mrs. James Milligan of the Herb 
Dote Shop in Lexington will he 
present in Winchester on Thurs- 
day, October 15, from 2-5 p. m. at 
th»* home of Mrs. Joseph Dolben at

Tour. 

Mrs. R. A. Sawyer, Winchester 
fi-0528-R, and Maty Spaulding’s I

art, and dedicated to herb growing 
and herb usage as a way of life, 
Mrs. Milligan makes an appealing 
presentation of her tasty tricks 
and quaint gifts. 

Mrs. Milligan learned her trade, 
the cultivation of herbs, their uses 
and symbolism, by working in the 
old Bedford fields with the aging 
Yankee farmer, Mrs. Dutton. She 


demonstrates the use of herbs in 
jelly, candy, vinegars, vegetables, 
pomanders, nnd in making many at- 
tractive gifts.

On tlu* KLM Super Constella- 
tion flight from Neu York Satur- 
day, J. F. McGrath, Jr., of the Me 
grnth Travel Service, Woburn, left 
for a five-weeks four of Europe. 
He is a delegate to the Internation- 
al Congress of the American Soci- 
ety of Travel Agents being held in 
Rome the end of October. 

His first stop in Europe will be 
made in Amsterdam, and from Am- 
sterdam he will plane to Berlin, 
where for a week he will visit the 
Western Sector ami also cross over 
into the Eastern Sector behind tlu 
Iron Curtain, which sector is a part 
of Berlin proper. 

He and several other travel 
agents have been invited by the 
Yugoslavian government to make 
a two- weeks tour of this interesting 
country so that they may encour- 
age American travelers to visit 
there. Before World War 1, the 
country which is now Yugoslavia 
was six countries, Slovenia, Croa- 
tia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Herzego- 
vina and Serbia. After World War 
I, these countries were all incor- 
porated into Yugoslavia, and until 
recently, when the United States 
resumed diplomatic relations with 
Yugoslavia, they were behind the 
Iron Curtain as satellites of Rus- 
sia. It is exceptionally interesting 
there, with many of the customs 
of the old countries, and reflects 
the civilizations of many of the 
Mediterranean countries such as 
Egypt, Turkey, Greece and the Ro- 
man Empire. 

Besides the overland tour in 
Yugoslavia, the delegation will 
take one of the Dalmatian coastline 
steamers which call at many of the 
seashore resorts in this section. The 
group will be entertained by the 
Yugoslavian Tourist Bureau, a gov- 
ernment organization, and will 
meet Tito, who is at the present 
time ruler of Yugoslavia. 

After two weeks in Yugoslavia, 
Mr. McGrath will proceed to Rome

He will then fly from Rome to

PRESIDENTS' CLUS 


The first meeting of the fall 
season of the Eighth District Pres- 
idents’ Club was held recently in 
the Congregational Church, North 
Reading, with the Upland Women’s 
Club as the hostess club. 

Mrs. Harold H. Given of Win- 
chester, the president of the Eighth 
District Presidents’ Club, welcomed 1 street, Melrose Highlands, January 
the members and Mrs. A. Chesley 29, 1954.

zine, and, of special interest, she 
appealed for 0,000 filled utility 
hags which will he given to vete-

The past presidents of the Eighth 
District Presidents’ Club, who were 
presented with corsages which were 
made by Mrs. Harry Sparks, were 
seated at a table together. They 
were Mrs. John Montgomery, Mrs. 
II . Stanley Kinsley, Mrs. Walter 
T. Carver, Mrs. Walter K. Free- 
man and Mrs. D. Talmadge Erb. 

Mrs. Chandler Eaton spoke on 
“The Art of Stencilling,” giving the 
history of stencilling, which dates 
as far back as the cave dwellers 
and came into vogue in 1800. Mrs. 
Eaton demonstrated stencilling and 
also displayed various stencilled 
articles. 

The mid-winter meeting will be 
held at Corinthian Hall, Franklin

MURIEL GETS A WRITE UP 

Winchester readers of last Sun- 
day’s Boston Globe were interested 
in Jo Anne Robbins’ special article 
on Mrs. J. Stanley Barnes of Ginn 
road, Muriel to all who know her 
and the first woman ever to be ap- 
pointed deputy insurance commis- 
sioner of Massachusetts. 

Much of the information in the 
article is familiar to readers of the 
Star, who were, however, interested 
in what Mrs. Barnes’ new job with 
the state is. She is one of five dep- 
uty commissioners nnd heads the 
Policy Approval Division handling 
life, health and accident forms ap- 
proving policies written in com- 
pliance with the statute. 

It was also interesting to learn 
she embarked in business through 
answering a Globe want ad 12 
years ago during the serious ill- 
ness of her husband. She is today 
well known in insurance circles, 
having her own business as well as 
acting as a special agent (again the 
first woman to hold the job) for 
one of the large insurance compa- 
nies, traveling through the state 
contacting insurance brokers and 
agents. 

Mrs. Barnes studied dramatic art 
and stage presentation at New 
England Conservatory and has been 
active in local and state Republican 
circles as well as in the activities 
of the Civil Defense. She likes sail- 
ing, fishing and flying, and it was 
news to us that she had taken up 
a plane, though she hasn’t yet 
landed one. Her knowledge of sea- 
manship, learned from her father, 
enabled her to be of real value to 
sister passengers on a beleaguered 
yacht forced back from Nantucket 
to Falmouth Harbor by a severe 
storm.

UNITED CHURCH CANVASS 

A very enthusiastic and well-at- 
tended meeting of the committee 
handling this project met at the 
office of the First Congregational 
Church last Thursday to discuss 
their plans for the third annual 
United Church Canvass campaign. 

A spirit of Christian comrade- 
ship in our community is especially 
strong among us this year, since 
we are joined by the Church of the 
Epiphany as a seventh member, 
and more especially since II of the 
7 ministers of our United group 
are new to Winchester this year. 

Sunday, November 15, is Loyalty 
Sunday, and on or before that date 
you will be asked to make your 
1!>54 church pledge. As a United 
Canvass group, our objective is to 
combine our strength so as to do a 
more effective job than could bo 
done by each church working sep- 
arately. 

Our needs and opportunities are 
greater this year than ever before, 
and church members are urged to 
support this movement.

“A haze on the far horizon 
The infinite, tender sky, 

The rich tints of the cornfields, 
The wild geese sailing high ; 
And all over the uplands and

The charm of the goldenrod; 
Some of us call it autumn, 
Others call it God.”

S pecial Favorite of the Ladies ! 


When a Cadillac comes into the service of a family 
that has never owned one before, it is — quite natu- 
rally— a source of great pride and happiness to the 
entire family group. 

But we have noticed, through the years, that the 
car is a very special favorite with the ladies . For, 
most assuredly, a Cadillac does some very wonderful 
and extraordinary things for a lady. 

First of all, she looks her loveliest when she is 
seated behind its wheel. Every time she takes to the 
highway, she finds herself the focal point in a per- 
fectly gorgeous picture. 

And she feels just as wonderful as she looks. 

The car’s deep, luxurious cushions cradle her in 
magnificent comfort throughout the longest journey. 
The great responsiveness of the quiet, powerful engine 
gives her a marvelous sense of command. The car 
steers and brakes and drives with such miraculous 
ease that she actually rests and relaxes as she rides. 


Of course, there are a great many other satisfac- 
tions which a lady finds in a new Cadillac car. 

There is, for instance, her delight at seeing her 
family surrounded with every comfort and safeguard 
known to the science of motor car design. And there 
is the deep and rewarding sense of fulfillment which 
comes with ownership of such a prized and sought- 
after possession. Fven parked in her driveway, the 
car is a tribute to her good taste and judgment . . . 
and a wonderful complement to the beauty and 
graciousness of her home. 

To any gentleman reeiding this advertisement— 
we would like to make a suggestion: 

Some day soon— when the sky is bright and the 
time is right— ask your lady if she wouldn’t like to 
take a ride in a 1953 Cadillac. 

We think we know what the answer will be — and 
we’ll be happy to sec you, indeed.

The Senior Forum of the First 
Congregational Church will hold 
their first Chapel Service of the 
year this Sunday, October 11. at 
9:30 a. m. at which time the grpup 
will have the privilege of hearing 
Dr. Alford Carleton, President of 
Aleppo College, Syria. The chap- 
lain will he Harold McKinley, Jr., 
assisted by William Ross. Ushers 
will be Stephen Marshall nnd Kich- 
ard Thompson, and acting as dea- 
cons will he Kendall Cleaves and 
John Merritt. 

Dr. Cnrleton was bom in Albany, 
N. Y., and educated at Obcrlin Col- 
lege nnd Hartford Theological 
Seminary. He first enlisted under 
the American Board for Foreign 
Missions in 1930. serving in Turkey 
before going to Syria where he has 
been President of Aleppo College 
since 1937. Dr. Carleton’s contacts 
have reached far beyond office and 
classroom walls, and it is reported 
that there are probably very few 
Americans who have a firmer and 
more balanced grasp of the econ- 
omic, political and social situations

A record crowd of about 95 peo- 
ple had a completely good time at 
the Snipe Dinner Sunday night. 
Each year enthusiasm for snipe 
racing just about doubles — and 
this summer there were twenty- 
four registered boats in the snipe 
fleet with no less than a dozen 
turning out for each race. After 
a yummy turkey dinner with all the 
fixin’s, skillfully cooked by the 
Broders, the meeting was taken 
over by Carl Freyer, captain of this 
year’s fleet. He introduced the 
other fleet officers: Pete Redding, 
first mate, who is going into the 
Army October 21: and Jim New- 
man, purser. Also at the head 
table were Commodore Fitzpatrick 
from the Medford Boat Club and 
the other Medford fleet officers. 
Much credit was also extended to 
Bol) Huggins, chairman of the Win- 
chester race committee, who has 
done all the point tallying this sea- 
son. 

Announced as fleet officers for 
next summer were Walter Redding, 
captain; Bob Hall, first mate; and 
Jim Snow, purser. 

Jim Snow, long-standing snipe 
sailor, handed out the trophies. Top 
honors in the Junior Point Score 
Series went to Tom Legere. His 
close competition, in order, includ- 
ed Windy Freyer, Peter Mont- 
miny, John Day, and Peter Freyer. 

Tom Legere again carried away 
top honors in the Series A of the 
Point Score Races. A close second 
was Jim Newman, with Bob Hug- 
gins third. Jim Newman was vic- 
tor in Series B, with Carl Freyer 
second, and Bob Anderson third. 
In Series C, Dawson Blamire col- 
lected the trophy for first place, 
with Bart Sullivan second, and 
John Duy third. 

Bob Huggins, winner of the 
whole point score series, was re- 
cipient of the George Jones Trophy. 
He claims the secret of his success 
is the excellent crewing of his wife. 
Jim Newman was the runner-up, 
with Tom Legere in third place. 

Winners of the Directors’ Handi- 
cap Trophy Series were Bob Ander- 
son, Spike Larson, and Dawson 
Blamire, respectively. 

A plaque made by George Jones 


was presented to Jim Snow, who 
earned first place in the Alden 
Sherman Trophy Series, which end- 
ed last weekend. Darla Hall, Dann 
Lewis, and Bob Anderson claimed 
second, third, and fourth places 
respectively. 

Mementoes of the snipe fleet 
were received by the three faithful 
race judges, Ann Blamire, Stan 
Gardiner, and Boh Hall. 

Dave Reynolds of Medford Boat 
Club presented the Medford-Win- 
chester Interclub Cup to Carl 
Freyer, captain of the fleet, and 
vowed that Medford would give 
Winchester a good fight next year. 

The three female skippers of the 
snipe fleet, Barbara Fitts, Letty 
Harmon, and Darla Hall, were 
thoroughly teased in a skit made 
up of Carl Freyer, Arthur Schmidt, 
and Leonard Mead. All of the script 
was cleverly written by Carl 
Freyer. 

Excellent colored movies of sail- 
ing, swimming, and clambakes 
which occurred during the summer 
were shown by Bob Hall, who real- 
ly knows how to take pictures.

WHITE SPOT RESTAURANT DESTROYED BY FIRE 


Photo by Bernio Murvin 


A fire broke out in the cellar of 
the famous dining place, The White 
Spot, at Four Corners, Woburn, on 
Sunday afternoon, October 11th, at 
about 4 p. m. 

There were about fifty patrons 
seated at tables at the time. They 
accepted the announcement of “fire” 
and ventured to vacate. Suddenly 
the flames leaped through the inlets 
of the air-conditioning system and 
billows of smoke reared from the 
basement stairs. 

Then there was mild panic and 
the patrons fled, some leaving their 
wraps and handbags. The employ- 
ees of the White Spot. who were on 
duty were obliged to leave the 
building in their working attire, 
leaving their belongings behind. 

The spectacular blaze caused a 
general alarm summoning fire- 
fighters, apparatus and police from 
surrounding towns, Winchester be- 
ing among those responding. 

The White Spot has been a fa- 
vorite eating place for many Win- 
chester people for the past twenty- 
eight years. 

The owner, Mr. Francis “Nick” 
Chase, who lives at 54 Salisbury 
street, plans to rebuild.

vantage point.

leaders. Mrs. W. B. Hersey will 
continue to work with the older 
girls, and Mrs. Vivian White, Mrs. 
William Darou and Miss Joy Web- 
ber and their girls are enthusias- 
tically planning for a trip abroad 
next summer. 

Many Scout and Brownie troops 
have already started their fall 
meetings. Some are without lead- 
ership, and anyone w'ho is interest- 
ed in helping in a troop is urged to 
contact Mrs. Thomas Hill, organ- 
ization chairman for the Winches- 
ter Girl Scout Council. 

The Winchester Girl Scouts ex- 
tended their sincere congratula- 
tions to the United Nations, who

dially invited to attend a meeting

powered a rugged Winthrop team 
by the one-sided score of 31 to 6 at 
Miller Field, in Winthrop, before a 
crowd of two thousand thriU-seck- 
ers, who, in spite of the score, got 
their money’s worth of thrills from 
long touchdown runs, last-ditch 
tackles which saved touchdowns, 
goal-line stands, and a gecond half 
starred by twenty forward passes, 
eleven of which were completed by 
Winthrop’s TardifT and one of 
which resulted in a touchdown for 
Winchester. 

In spite of the score, from the 
spectator’s point of view the game 
was a real thriller. Actually Win- 
throp out-ranked Winchester in 
first downs, 15 to 13, although 
many of the 13 were made at the 
expense of the Winchester Seconds 
and Thirds, who played a good 
part of the game and who were 
better offensively than defensively. 
TardifT, of Winthrop, thrilled the 
crowd in the second half by uncork- 
ing a highly effective passing 
game, completing eleven passes out 
of eighteen tries, only one of which 
was intercepted. Perhaps if Win- 
throp had taken to the air earlier 
in the game, the result might have 
been different. However, Winches- 
ter has two good passers in Pratt 
and Lindsey, neither of whom was

forced to resort to passing, with 
the ground game clicking consis- 
tently throughout the contest. 

Tnkin the opening kickoff on the 
23 yard line, Mick Murphy lugged 
the ball to the 33, and then drove 
through center for four yards more 
on first down. On the second play 
of the game, Joe Bellino, taking a 
pitchout from Dave Pratt and be- 
hind some perfect blocking by Mur- 
phy swept 63 yards for a touch- 
down. From that point on Win- 
chester controlled the game, al- 
though* Donovan of Winthrop found 
holes through both guards for 
drive after drive of ten or twelve 
yards until he was removed from 
the game finally, a tired and 
shaken player. Winchester won’t 
meet any better ball carrier of the 
line-bucking type than Mr. Don- 
ovan of Winthrop. 

For Winchester, Joe Bellino 
played the type of game which has 
been prophesied for him from the 
start of the season, reeling off two 
long touchdown runs of 63 and 57 
yards respectively behind fine 
blocking, and other runs of 29, 23, 
and 16 yards, two of which were 
stopped by last-minute tackles to 
prevent his going all the way. Mike 
Murphy played his best game so 
far and in addition to throwing 
decisive blocks for Bellino and 
Haggerty revealed surprising abil- 
ity on two or three end sweeps 
which could have scored touch- 
downs if Mike had been able to put 
on speed after shaking off a couple 
of tacklers. Dave Rotundi, playing 
at fullback for half the game, was 
outstanding on backing up the line 
and reeled off one run of 53 yards. 
His kick-offs, however, were per- 
haps his most spectacular contribu- 
tion, consistently reaching the 
Winthrop safety man near the goal 
line. It would be impossible to 
identify all the boys who played 
good football against Winthrop. 
Roth Lindsey and Ross, replacing 
Pratt as quarterback, handled their 
jobs with efficiency and Ross twice 
ran hack punts for long yardage, 
while Lindsey scored on a fine dash 
around end and passed for another 
score to O’Brien with a well execut- 
ed jump pass over the line. 

The quarter-backing of both 


teams was outstanding in clever 
handling of the hall and in decep- 
tion. Captain John Riordnn, hack- 
ing up the line for Winchester, was 
in the Winthrop hnckfield all after- 
noon and on one occasion saved a 
scoring threat by throwing the 
dangerous Mr. Donovan for a three 
yard loss on the Winchester three 
yard line. 

Those who watched Winchester 
at Concord in the first gnme of the 
season wouldn’t recognize the 
smoothly working, hard - hitting 
aggregation which represents the 
Red and Rlack today. Without any 
question they have found them- 
selves and beginning with the stop- 
ping of the highly touted Water- 
town steam-roller, they served no- 
tice that they are again on the war- 
path and playing for keeps. Right 
now, their most dangerous future 
opponents appear to be Melrose and 
Wakefield. Melrose looks ns if 
they had once again risen from de- 
feat to become nn outstanding foot- 
ball team, trouncing Malden last 
week 26 to 6! And Wnkefield has 
yet to taste defeat. This doesn’t 
mean that Winchester is overlook- 
ing the game next week at Stone- 
ham. Not by any means, because 
for the past several years it has 
been Stoneham, regardless of their 
previous record, that has given 
Winchester one of the toughest 
games of the season. So it’s on to 
Stoneham next Saturday. 


Winchester won the toss and 
elected to receive, Winthrop choos- 
ing to kick with the wind. The 
kickoff went to Mike Murphy on 
Winchester’s 23 yard line and 
Murph carried back to the 33. 
Murphy made four yards through 
left guard on the first play from 
scrimmage and on the next play, 
Bellino took a pass out from Pratt 
and behind some fine blocking by 
Murphy skirted right end and went 
63 yards for the touchdown. On 
the try for point after, the pass 
was high and Lindsey ran for the 
far comer and scored the extra 
point easily. 

Winchester kicked off to Gaynor 
on the Winthrop 32, who ran it 
hack to the 45. TardifT made 4 
through tackle. Donovan drove for

3 through center. An incomplete 
pass was nearly intercepted by 
Murphy. On 4th down, Donovan on 
a delayed pass drove through cen- 
ter to the Winchester 48 for a 1st 
down. Bellino stopped a wide end 
run for no gain and on second down 
Streeter was thrown for an 8 yard 
loss. Donovan made 1 yard 
through center and on the punt 
Winchester was off-side. On the 
second attempt Donovan punted to 
the Winchester 10, where the hall 
hit the ground in the midst of three 
Winthrop forwards, hut Bellino 
snatched the hall and carried to the 
39, with one man between him and 
another score. 

Haggerty made 4 through tackle, 
but a 15 yard penalty put the hall 
hack to the 34. Murphy made 9 
through right tackle to the 43. On 
third down Bellino duplicated the 
run he made on the second play of 
this game, with the same good 
blocking, going 67 yards around 
right end for the touchdown. The 
try for point after was wide. 

Riordan kicked off to Donovan 
on his 30 and the big fullback drove 
back to the Winchester 40 yard 
line. TardifT passed to Streeter for 
7 yards. Streeter made five more 
through left tackle for a first down 
on Winchester’s 28. Donovan bull- 
ed through center for 9 yards and 
Streeter made a first down on Win- 
chester’s 14 yard line. From a 
spread formation TardifT passed to 
Donovan for 4 yards to the 10. 
Donovan mudo four through center 
to the six. In two bucks at the 
center of the line Donovan made a 
first down on the four yard line. 

On the next play Riordan threw 
Donovan for a 3 yard loss. Streeter 
made 1 yard through center and 
the quarter ended with Winthrop on 
Winchester’s 5 yard line, third 
down and goal to go. Streeter 
made 1 through center and then on 
4th down Donovan scored. The try 
for point after was blocked and 
Winchester led 13 to 6. 

Winthrop kicked off to O’Brien 
who was stopped in his tracks on j 
the 37 yard line. Murphy swept 
right end for 29 yards shaking off 
several tacklers and all but getting 
into the clear. With the ball on 
Winthrop’s 35, Haggerty swept, 
left end for 18 yards to the 17. 
Bellino whirled through inside 
tackle for 9 yards to the 8 and 
Murphy skirted left end for a first 
down on the 3. A back in motion 
on the next play placed the ball on 
the 8, but Murphy on the next play 
scored easily. One again the try 
for point after went wide and Win- 
chester led by the score of 19 to 6. 

With the second team replacing 
the varsity, Rotundi kicked to Don- 
ovan on the 10 and made the tackle 
on the 19 yard line. Winthrop 
fumbled on a spread formation play 
and Winchester recovered on the 
20. McLaughlin made 13 on an 
end run for first down on the 7. 
Morgan was stopped at the line of 
scrimmage, but on 2nd down Lind- 
sey scampered round right end for 
a touchdown. A poor pass pre- 
vented the point after. Score: 
Winchester 25, Winthrop 6. 

Rotundi kicked to Streeter on the 
goal line and he drove back to the 
25. Donovan made 2 on a lino buck. 
TardifT passed to Streeter for a 
first down on the 36. An incom- 
plete pass and two line bucks made 
only 3 yards. On 4th down Win- 
trop punted to Ross on Winches- 


ter’s 20 and with good blocking 
ahead of him Ross lugged it to the 
Winthrop 29. On the play a 15 
yard penalty on Winthrop placed 
the hall on the 14. On the next 
play Winthrop recovered n fumble 
on the 13. 

In 4 plays Winthrop rolled up 
three first downs against the scrubs 
to the Winchester 42. An incom- 
plete pass combined with a 15 yard 
penalty on Winchester for rough- 
ness put the hall on the 27. Don- 
ovan ploughed through the center 
of the line to the 15 and the half 
ended with Winthrop threatening. 
Score: Winchester 26, Winthrop 6. 

Rotundi kicked off to Connolly at 
the 12 and he ran the kick hack to I 
the 33. Donovan made 9 through letf 
guard. TardifT made 3 for first 
down on the 45. TardifT was held 
for no gain hut on second down 
Donovan drove 19 yards to Win- 
chester’s 40. On the same play 
Donovan was held to 1 yard. Tar- 
diff made 1 to the 38. TardifT pass- 
ed to Streeter for a first down on 
the 39. Again TardifT passed to 
Donovan on the 25. An incomplete 
pass was followed by two attempts 
by Donovan to make a first down 
through the center of the line and 
Winchester took over on the 20. 

On first down Rotundi on a quick 
opening got into the clear and ran 
53 yards to the Winthrop 27. Hag- 
gerty made 4 and Winchester 
Seconds came hack into the game. 
McLaughlin was thrown for a 7 
yard loss. An incomplete pass was 
followed by a bad pass on 4th down 
which drove McLaughlin hack to 
the 41, where he managed to fall 
on the loose ball. With Winthrop 
taking over Coach Knowlton sent 
in the varsity to relieve the Seconds 
and Streeter was held for no gain, 
hut a 15 yard penalty on Winches- 
ter put the ball on the 49. After 
an incomplete pass, Winchester in- 
tercepted the next attempt through 
the air and took the ball on their 30 
yard line. Rotundi drove for a first 
down on the 42, Haggerty made 1. 
Bellino carried to the 4 for a first 
down. On the next play Winthrop 
recovered a fumble on the 5. In 
three plays, with Donovan out of 
the lineup Winthrop lost 3 yards 
and the quarter ended with Win- 
throp in possession of the ball, 4th

15. Rimhack picked up 2 yards.

got back to Winthrop’s 32 before 
being downed. Donovan made 3 to 
the 35. TardifT passed to Streeter 
to the 44 and a first down. TardifT 
passed again to McDonald for an- 
other first down on Winchester’s 45. 
A pass to Donovan netted 3 yards 
and another to McDonald put the 
ball on the 37. Donovan drove for a 
first down on the 34. An incomplete 
pass was followed by two success- 
ful short passes totaling 9 yards 
and Donovan failed to make the 
one yard needed for a first down. 

Bellino made 8 yards to the 33 
and Winthrop was penalized five 
yards for off-side. Pratt made 3 
on a quarter-back end run. Bel- 
lino made 5 through tackle. Pratt 
tried a long pass but the ball was 
over the head of the receiver and

hit Bellino with a beautiful pass 
on Winthrop’s 32. Bellino was hurt 
on the play and had to leave the 
game. On second down, Lindsey, 
who had replaced Pratt hit O’Brien 
with a jump pass over the line and 
O’Brien raced the rest of the dis-

RECEIVES PATENT 


Lloyd R. McIntosh of Winches- 
ter, Mass., was the recipient on 
September 22, 1963, of U. S. Patent 
No. 2,663,207, entitled “Filament 
Emission Electrode and Method Of 
Minimizing Filament Stresses 
Therein”. 

In many applications of X-ray 
and cathode-ray tubes, in which 
streams of electrons are emitted 
from a cathode, it is desirable to 
have such electrons come from a 
point source. This may be accom- 
plished by bending the filament, 
which constitutes the cathode, into 
a hairpin shape so that when an 
electric current flows through it, 
nearly all of the electrons, emitted 
thereby, originate from or at the 
very small area of the apex of the 
filament. 

These filaments are preferably of 
tungsten and in the order of one- 
hundredth of an inch thick; and 
they expand and contract each time 
they are heated to emission tem- 
perature and then cooled. Conse- 
quently, they are subjected to 
stresses which may cause them to 
break at any point along their 
length. 

To cope with this situation and 
provide an improvement over the 
prior practice, Mr. McIntosh has 
discovered that this tendency to 
breakage may he reduced very sub- 
stantially by farming a loop pre- 
ferably in each arm of the filament 
and desirably very close to the 
apex thereof. Best results may he 
obtained by locating each loop at a 
distance of not more than one- 
eighth of an inch from the apex 
and constructing it with an inside 
diameter of forty to sixty thou- 
sandths of an inch. 

It should be noted also that, as 
another advantageous feature of 
his invention, Mr. McIntosh pro- 
vides a means to prevent jarring of 
the filament and to prevent molten 
glass from appearing on it when 
glass is used in the parts or con- 
nections between the load-in wires 
and the filament itself. 

This patent lias been assigned to 
High Voltage Engineering Corpor- 
ation, Cambridge, Mass.

brought forth many interesting 
comments. Among the most heart- 
ening are those from men and wo- 
men who have a particular feeling 
of warmth and friendship toward 
the library because of the part it 
has played in the development of 
their own lives and their business 
or professional careers. 

Many of these people are well 
known to us, and we are proud that 
this library has contributed to their 
intellectual well-being and to their 
success. However, throughout this 
city, the commonwealth, and the 
nation there must he many others 
who have found the Boston Public 
Library a source of inspiration and 
help. 

It occurs to us that as pail of the 
observance of the 100th anniver- 
sary of this country’s first great 
circulating library an “alumni as- 
sociation” might he formed. For , r ^ A ... 
this purpose we have particularly . • f ^ • Auxiliary 3 1 19 will hold

Winchester 6-0213 Evenings Winchester 6-1963 


Last Friday the local runners 
entertained Revere in the only 
home meet of the yenr. The Rod 
and Black won by a score of 20 to 
44 with Lou Farrell racing to a new 
course record in the fast time of 
16:36 which smashed the old record, 
also held by Farrell, by 12 seconds. 

The visitors, strengthened by the 
addition of two runners not with 
the squad in their early races, offer- 
ed only fair opposition to the home 
cluU. The race got off to a fast 
start and at the halfway point Lou 
had only about a 35 yard lead on 
Zani of Revere with John Becker 
in third about 10 yards hack. In 
the second half of the race the Win- 
chester runners really poured on 
the speed as Farrell crossed the 
line in record time while Captain 
Becker moved into second to finish 
20 seconds behind Lou nnd record 
his best time for the course. Zani 
of the visitors pulled into third and 
Dick Borggaard, running his best 
race to date, finished a strong 
fourth. Veteran Hank Morgan 
took 6th despite a tough chest 
cramp and Larry Tullberg, steadily 
improving Sophomore, was the last 
Winchester scorer in 7th. 

Other local runners showed real 
improvement in their time for the 
rugged two and one half mile 
course. These were Bob Becker in 
8th, Boh Smith in 10th, John Mc- 
Carthy, 14th and Bert Kneeland, 
16th. It should he noted that these 
runners are all Sophomores.

BADMINTON CLUB OPENS SEASON 

The badminton season was ush- 
ered in very successfully this week 
with sizeable and highly enthusi- 
astic turnouts Tuesday and Thurs- 
day evenings at the high school 
g.vm. 

All three courts were kept busy 
from the starting time of 7:30 p.m. 
and for the major portion of the 
evening, os the players, regulars 
and newcomers, joined together to 
launch the new season happily. 

President Larry Palmer ‘ was 
pleased at the appearance of so 
many new faces and wishes to re- 
mind others interested in this fine 
sport they are welcome to join the 
Badminton Club. There is no obli- 
gation for the first visit. 


S. 0. I. BOWLING LEAGUE 

Off we go again with plenty of 
new faces in the line up. The 
tranquil hoys of Soft Ball fnme 
and the usual old timers got off on 
schedule, on a swing shift system 
of 7 to 9 p. m. nnd 9 to 11 p. m. at 
the Swanton Street Alleys. 

We have some very good howlers 
this year and it should be very in- 
teresting to see who will finish on 
top for high average. I wish to 
mention some of the “dignitaries” 
nnd “Men of World Fnme” who are 
howling this year. 

We have Snraco M. D., “Mingy” 
Frongillo, “Ben” Gillotti, “Chick” 
Vespucci, “Moose” Bellino, “Hokic” 
John “C” Bertolucci, Joe Tofuri, 
and Richie Riga just to mention a 
few. 

Opening night, Wednesday, Oc- 
tober 7, many of the boys got off 
to a good jump, with many dnrk 
horses setting the pace for the 
champs. 

Below are the five top howlers of 


the evening:

BOY SCOUTS TO DISTRIBUTE 
RED FEATHER LEAFLETS 


Boy Scouts of the Fellsland 
Council will distribute 7,000 Red 
Feather leaflets in Winchester, 
starting Saturday, October 17. 
Titled “Boston, Dogpatch and Li’l 
Abner,” the hook has cartoons 
donated this year for the Red 
Feather Campaign by A1 Capp. The 
hack of the leaflet includes a spe- 
cial message from Winchester 
Campaign Chairman, Arthur W. 
Pratt. 

Volunteer solicitors will begin to 
call at homes for the Greater Bos- 
ton United Red Feather Campaign 
.Sunday, November 1. 


High Triple went to M. J. Snraco 
with a 316 and High Single went 
to “Carlo” Bertolucci with a 124. 

We were told only one complaint 
was issued to the Assistant Com- 
missioner of Bowling Randy, the 
Head Boss being “Bull Dozer” 
Frongillo who takes care of the 
real trouble. 

“The Gypsy” was there again 
for the quarters for chances on 
Bowling night as usual. The 
chances were gone in a flash and 
the winner was announced and 
guess who? Lucky “Chick” Ves- 
pucci again. 

In closing, we were led to be- 
livc the gentlemen that were howl- 
ing could not be heard on the out- 
side of the sound proof building!

CLOSING SESSION 
OF COMMUNITY SCHOOL 

The final session of Winchester’s 
Community School of Christian 
Education will he held next Mon- 
day evening, October 19, in the 
First Baptist Church at 7:45. All 
interested persons will want to at- 
tend the wind-up of this excellent 
series of classes. 

In the Nursery and Kindergarten 
class, Mrs. Andon is planning to 
demonstrate and discuss worship 
and music as used with the very 
youngest children. 

Mrs. Hunt, in the class for teach- 
ers of Primary children is planning 
to take up the important matter of 
parent-teacher relationships, and 
worship. Summaries of the other 
sessions will conclude this course. 

Activities for Juniors — various 
types of creative activities such as 
writing of psalms and stories, 
hand-work and the use of pictures 
— will he described in Miss Boyd’s 
class on methods with Juniors. 

Miss Strieker, teacher of the 
class for Junior High methods, asks 
that each person bring a copy of 
the text book be is now using in bis 
Church School and a general dis- 
cussion of teaching materials will 
he hold. 

Rev. Edmund Nutting and Dr. 
Barbara Kimball will be complet- 
ing their excellent series in the two 
courses: Church School Planning; 
and Parents and the Teen-ager. 
The school has been fortunate to 
have these very able lenders and en- 
thusiastic reports are heard of the 
values gained from these courses. 

Dr. Forgey closes his remarkable 
and inspirational “portraits” of 
Jesus with his talk on “A Portrait 
in Oils”, namely the Gospel accord- 
ing to St. John. The Gospel of St. 
Mark, to Dr. Forgey, is a “Candid 
Camera” view of Jesus, the gospel 
of the present. The Gospel accord- 
ing to St. Matthew is the “Family 
Album” picture, the gospel of the 
past. St. Luke gives us a “Posed 
Photograph”, a carefully selected 
picture of the life of the Master, 
and the gospel of the future. St. 
John has the artistry of an oil 
painting, and is called the gospel of 
eternity. Through these “por- 
traits”,’ Dr. Forgey has clarified 
our understanding, challenged our 
thinking, and inspired our living, 
both as parents and teachers.

with tributes of praise nnd ap- 

E lauae last Friday evening when a 
irge number of parents and friends 
of St. Mary’s CYO gathered to 
honor the championship teams of 
the parish. 

The junior baseball team, which 
captured top honors in the Middle- 
sex District, was presented with 
fancy blue and gold jackets with a 
championship emblem on the front. 
Manager Bill Cruwys introduced 
the members of the squad as they 
came to the front of the hall to 
receive their awards. 

Next in the parade of champions 
came the girla’ swimming team, 
which won the Archdiocesnn Tro- 
phy, the Archbishop Cushing Cup, 
for the second year in a row. A1 Mc- 
Dougall managed both the swim- 
ming teams and the girls’ softball 
team. Kach of the mermaids was 
presented with an individual trophy 
with her name engraved on it. 

Fr. Manion addressed the gather- 
ing and congratulated the winners 
on their success, at the same time 
encouraging them to continue their 
enthusiastic spirit in taking such 
an active part in parish affairs.

MISS MEZZACAPPA IN PLAY

dramatic society, Pen, Paint and 
Pretzels and last year won first

WINCHESTER MORNINGS 
FIRST LECTURE 

Speaking at the first Winchester 
Morning on October 8th, Mr. John 
Allan May of the Christian Science 
Monitor said we have reached a 
critical, perhaps an historical mo- 
ment of modern times. 

Discussing the conflict between 
Russia and the Western World, he 
outlined what he considered the 
strength and weakness of the Rus- 
sian empire. Russia’s strength 
lies in its possession of the hydro- 
gen bomb. Despite the tendency of 
the press to ridicule the ability of 
Russian scientists, evidence indi- 
cates that they have succeeded in 
producing a hydrogen bomb nnd 
have commenced to stockpile 
atomic weapons. Recently there 
have been many signs of growing 
weakness and insecurity within the 
Soviet empire. On the death of 
Stalin, there was no man of like 
stature to replace him. Added 
evidence of dissatisfaction within 
the state is suggested by such in- 
cidents as the disappearance of 
Beria, whom Mr. May referred to 
as “an international flying saucer,” 
the escape from behind the iron 
curtain of Polish and North Korean 
flyers, disturbances throughout the 
satellite colonies, and the uprising 
in Eastern Germany. 

Mr. May feels that the time is 
now ripe, while there are still 
people living in the Soviet empire 
who are able to remember what 
freedom means, for all freedom 
loving people to take the initiative 
in the struggle against Commu- 
nism. He believes, as Winston 
Churchill has suggested, that the 
West should take steps to call a 
conference to # negotiate assurances 
between Russia and the Western 
Allies. While Russia might be 
anxious to avoid such a showdown, 
Mr. May feels that it will help the 
allied cause, and restore the West’s 
dwindling prestige in the Asiatic 
countries. On the whole he felt 
that the western powers were mov- 
ing in the right direction. 

In closing, Mr. May, an English- 
man, stressed that the American 
alliance is of the utmost impor- 
tance to the British, and urged that 
we do not mistake their divergence 
of opinion for criticism. He reiter- 
ated that our strongest weapon is 
love of freedom, and that we must 
show it all over the world. 

The second of the Mornings se- 
ries, sponsored by the Winchester 
Wellesley Club, will take place on 
Thursday, October 29th, when Mr. 
Carl Wood, Jr., will give a program 
of American Folksongs.

MINIMUM RATE FOR 

Coin Telephone Calls 


First Increase in 70 Years 


Effective on Wednesday, October 14th, the minimum rate for calls from 
New England Telephone Company coin telephones in Massachusetts became 
10ff, in accordance with authorization by the Department of Public Utilities. 
This is the first increase in the minimum rate in Massachusetts’ coin 
telephone history . Only calls within the present btf. calling area will be 
affected by the change. C .alls that are a dime today will continue to be a dime. 
Thus, the new 10^ calling area will include both the present 5 $ and 10(J areas. 




Costs of Providing Service 
Up Sharply 

The costs of providing telephone 
service have increased sharply dur- 
ing the past few years. Since higher 
schedules of telephone rates have 
been found necessary to meet these 
higher costs, it seems only fair that 
users of coin telephone service 
should bear their share of the 
increase. 

Most Coin Telephones 
Have 101 Rate 

A l(ty initial rate is already effec- 


tive or authorized for 83% of Bell 
System coin telephones. Applica- 
tions have been filed for an addi- 
tional 6%. 

Please Read The 
Instruction Cards > 

At each dial coin telephone, you 
will find instruction cards showing 
exactly how to call from that tele- 
phone, and a list of the outside lo- 
calities that may be reached by 
dialing. 

If the receiver is replaced after a 
single nickel >has been inserted , the 
coin will be returned.

Qualit y Proves It! 


Performance Proves It! 


IVicc IVmesIt ! 


Be hard to please when you compare auto- 
mobiles— and you will be pleased with 
Pontiac. Quality shows up in Pontiac wher- 
ever you look: In size — with its lonfc, road- 
leveling 122-inch wheelbase . . . unmatched 
at the price! In beauty — with smart Silver 
Streak styling and surprising luxury. In 
the unseen quality of engine and chassis- 
features that are revealed in the long, 
economical life Pontiac cars always deliver. 


This one’s easy! Simply come in and drive a 
Pontiac. You'll feel the eager response of America’s 
best-proved high-compression engine. You’ll see 
how Pontiac’s power reserve supplies all the pep 
you’ll ever need and provides a velvety smoothness 
that makes highway driving a pleasure. With 
Pontiac dependability, you can go on and on like 
this— with an absolute minimum of service. So 
don’t settle for less than the pleasure of Pontiac 
performance when it costs so little! 


Pontiac offers you all of this extra value 
at a price just a few dollars above the 
smallest, Unvest -priced cars! And when 
it comes to resale value, Pontiac ranks 
with the leaders year-in and year-out. 
That’s our final reason why, dollar for 
dollar, you can’t beat a Pontiac. Now 
come in and give quality, performance 
and price a chance to prove that 
Pontiac’s the best buy —for you, too!

GEORGE WASHINGTON 
DADS’ CLUB 


LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS 

Winchester’s prospective Senior 
High School was advertised for 
contractors’ bids on October 8, Mr. 
William J. Speers, Jr., chairman of 
the school building committee told 
members of the League of Women 
Voters at their opening meeting on 
October 7. Emphasizing that there 
has been no material change in the 
plans as they were presented to 
Town Meeting last spring, Mr. 
Speers reported that bids will be 
opened on November 5 and that the 
special Town Meeting on the school 
appropriation will probably be held 
the week of November 9. 

With the building plans as they 
are and have been, the committee 
estimates that a portion of the 
structure can be ready in time for 
the opening of school in September 
1954. Mr. Speers explained further 
that plans for remodeling the old 
high school building must be de- 
layed until completion of the new 
High School. 

The League also heard Mr. 
Joseph W. Butler, Jr., chairman of 
the Parkhurst school building com- 
mittee, who reported that his com- 
mittee lias not reached a decision 
between building a new school or 
adding to the present one. Mr. 
Butler emphasized the need of more 
than temporary relief, since the 
rate of population growth in the 
area served by the Parkhurst 
school shows that seven additional 
j rooms would be almost full as early 
as 1961. 

Mr. Harry V. Gilson, new super- 
intendent of schools, paid tribute to 
the chairmen of the school commit- 
tee and of the building committees. 
He pointed out that it would be im- 
possible to buy the hours of devoted 
service of the quality that these 
citizens have given. 

Mrs. William W. Davies presided 
over the meeting which was held at 
the home of Mrs. Howard Chidley. 
Mrs. Wilbert E. Underwood pre- 
sented the proposed revision of by- 
laws, designed to bring the Win- 
chester League up-to-date to con- 
form with the national League of 
Women Voters procedure. 

Mrs. Howard Aiken, vice-pres- 
ident in charge of unit meeting, an- 
nounced the following times and 
places for the League’s small dis- 
cussion groups.

WINCHESTER RED FEATHER 
CAMPAIGN WELL UNDER WAY 


BUTTERS APPOINTED 
CADDY COUNSELOR 


Arthur E. Butters, head of the 
mathematics department of the 
Winchester High School and long- 
time member of the Winchester 
Country Club, has been appointed 
the first official counselor to the 
Francis Ouimet caddy scholars, 
sponsored by the Massachusetts 
Golf Association. The appointment 
was announced by T. Edmund Gar- 
rity of Winchester, president of the 
scholarship foundation, at the an- 
nual directors' meeting held at the 
Weston Golf Club last week. 

The Massachusetts association, 
composed of 12,000 members, is 
the second largest group of its kind 
in the United States. It contributed 
more than $14,000 this year to en- 
able caddies to attend colleges of 
their choice. The first recipients of 
these scholarships graduated from 
college last June; and, at present, 
the association is aiding 70 boys in 
college, 22 of them freshmen. 
Grants are made for one year at 
a time, renewals being dependent 
upon demonstrated success, but so 
far there has never been a failure. 

Last summer Mr. Butters assist- 
ed in interviewing candidates for 
this year’s scholarships, all of 
whom had been screened by a com- 
mittee headed by Dean Rollins of 
the Harvard Business School. As 
counselor to the caddy scholars, 
Mr. Butters will contact every one 
of the first-year class to discuss 
marks and financial problems. He 
will also be available for consulta- 
tion with upper classlnen. 


HOWARD APPOINTED MANAGER 
OF TRUCKING CONCERN 

Mr. Paul W. Howard, who joined 
Hartford Despatch & Warehouse 
Company in April 1940, has been 
appointed Manager of the Com- 
pany’s Boston Terminal at 28 Trav- 
is street, Allston, effective October 
1st. 

Hartford Despatch & Warehouse 
Company operates regular truck- 
ing service between Boston and 
Southern New England points. The 
Company has public warehouses at 
Springfield, Hartford and Bridge- 
port and is also a member of Allied 
Van Lines, Inc. 

Mr. Howard lives at 6 Blind 
Bridge street, with his wife and 
two children. He is a member of 
the Traffic Club of New England. 
He served 3 V*» years in the U. S. 
Navy during World War II. 


MARINE HERO'S 
FUNERAL MONDAY 


The 1954 Winchester Red Feath- 
er Campaign is well under way, ac- 
cording to Mr. Arthur W. Pratt, 
Winchester Campaign Chairman. 
There are approximately 050 Win- 
chester people volunteering their 
time and effort in the various 
phases of this United Community 
| Drive. On October 17, advance so- 
licitation workers started their 
tasks; retail solicitation will start I 
on October 29; and the big residen- j 
tial drive in Winchester will com- 
mence on October 31 and will con- 
tinue through November 8. 

Winchester’s quota this year is 
$59,800, which is 6 r /c higher than 
the amount raised last year. This 
quota is based on actual require- 
ments of the 300 agencies includ- 
ing the U. S. O. which are support- 
ed by the Community Chest. If it 
is not met, the participating or- 
ganizations are handicapped in 
their operations. "If we are to 
maintain the health and social 
levels of our community, we must 
meet these modest goals,” said Mr. 
Pratt. Winchester agencies which 
receive direct financial aid from 
Red Feather are the Boy Scouts, 
the Girl Scouts, the Winchester 
Hospital, the District Nursing As- 
sociation, the Home for the Aged, 
and the St. Vincent dc Paul So- 
ciety. 

The Winchester Hospital, the 
Girl Scouts, and the District Nurs- 
ing Association will have window 
displays in Filene’s and Hevey’s in 
the center during the last two 
weeks of the campaign. 

Much credit for helping start the 
campaign so successfully goes to 
the local Boy Scout Troop who de- 
voted many hours last week end 
to the work of distributing Red 
Feather leaflets to Winchester res- 
idents. They will continue to dis- 
tribute this literature during the 
coming week end.

joyed.

The funeral of Lt. Robert G. 
Herlihy, USMC., son of Command- 
er John E. Herlihy, USX, retired, 
and Mrs. Herlihy, of Hillside ave- 
nue, will be held Monday morn- 
ning, October 20, from the Mal- 
luhy Funeral Home in Fitch- 
burg, with a solemn requiem high 
mass at St. Bernard’s Church, 
Fitchburg, at 10 o’clock. 

Lt. Herlihy was killed in action 
in Korea, July 20, 1953. lie had 
arrived in Korea only ten days pre- 
vious, and moved into the front 
lines with the First Marino Div- 
ision shortly after his arrival. On 
the last day of battle he was guard- 
ing eleven of his wounded Marines 
when he saw communist troops ap- 
proaching. 

Taking two of his men, Lt. Her- 
lihy intrepidly advanced to attack 
the red soldiers, and was killed pro. 
tecting his own wounded men. He 
has been recommended for the Sil- 
ver Cross, third highest military 
decoration. 

Lt. Herlihy was born December 
17, 1930, in the Symmes Arlington 
Hospital, while his parents were 
living in Winchester. Ilis father, 
for many years a member of the 
Navy Dental Corps, was assigned 
to various naval bases and Lt. Her- 
lihy’s early education was secured 
in several preparatory schools in 
continental United States. 

He was graduated from Bulkley 
High School in New London, Conn., 
in 1948, and went to the University 
of Notre Dame, from which he was 
graduated in the class of 1952. 

While at Notre Dame he enlisted 
in the Marines, and attended Pla- 
toon Leaders School at Quantico, 
receiving his lieutenant’s commis- 
sion at the time he was graduated 
from Notre Dame. 

After further training at Quan- 
tico, he was transferred to Camp 
Pendleton in California, where in 
May, 1953, he was ordered to join 
the First Marine Division in Korea. 

Lt. Herlihy’s parents are former 
residents of Fitchburg. His father, 
after retiring from the Navy, was 
assistant director of Dental Health 
for the Massachusetts State De- 
partment of Public Health. 

Besides his parents, Lt. Herlihy 
is survived by a brother, John E. 
Herlihy, a graduate of Notre Dame 
in the class of 1945 and a former 
lieutenant in the United States 
Navy. Now living in New York, 
he is advertising manager of the 
Foreign Editions of News Week 
Magazine. 


OVERPASS HEARING 
WELL ATTENDED 

Last Thursday evening, a large 
number of taxpayers attended the 
meeting at the High School audi- 
torium to see slides of the proposed 
grade crossing elimination and by- 
pass, and to ask questions about 
the plun and its cost. Don S. Greer 
of the Board of Selectmen present- 
! ed the slides and explanation of 
them, and Philip Wadsworth pre- 
sided. The meeting had been called 
by the Selectmen and Planning 
Board — it was not a legislative 
hearing nor a protest meeting — 
and notices had been sent to nearly 
200 people affected by the project 
so that they might attend this 
meeting. 

There were seven slides, dia- 
grams, and more are planned for 
the town meeting this week. The 
state will pay the cost of this ele- 
vating the railroad tracks, estim- 
ated at $6 million (including the 
by-pass from Washington street, 
across the Skillings estate, to up- 
per Main street) and the town’s 
share will be about $190,000 to be 
taken from the Excess and Defi- 
ciency Fund. 

The audience last Thursday 
night was about evenly divided be- 
tween the men and women who 
favored the elimination of the 
crossing by means of the overhead 
tracks, and those who felt the 
project to be a serious detriment 
to the town. Many of the listeners 
were property owners near the 
project, and were frankly worried 
about its effect on their homes, on 
valuations, and had many questions 
to ask about it. Mr. Charles Rich- 
ardson and Mr. Edward Barker of 
the Worcester Company were pres- 
ent to answer questions. They ex- 
plained that the upheaval in Win- 
chester Square, for this project, 
would last about a year and a half. 
The State has spent over $100,000 
in preliminary studies on this plan. 

Since the early discussion on the 
overpass, there arc plans for the 
by-pass, on which surveyors have 
been working those past months. A 
good many taxpayers in the au- 
dience wondered if the by-pass 
could be used if the tracks were 
not raised. Mr. John Lathrop ask- 
ed the question, and felt that the 
by-pass would relieve the center of 
much "through traffic” and might 
be tried first. 

Mrs. Alonzo Woodside asked what 
the cost of this by-pass would be 
apart from the over-all project, 
and was told that the by-pass con- 
struction was estimated at $750,000.

PARENTS TO SEE SAMPLE ROOM 
AT W.H.S. OPEN HOUSE 


CURLERS TO HAVE RINK 

The Winchester Curlers are 
about to realize their 25-year old 
ambition, to have their own en- 
closed artificial ice. Soon there 
will be many bull-sessions amongst 
the older Curlers about "when-wo- 
used-to” shovel snow off of the 
pond, scrape down the ice and then 
buck the biting cold winds. All 
that will soon be changed. 

Work has started on a new Curl- 
ing Rink at the Winchester Coun- 
try Club. The building will be 
about 170x50 feet and will be built 
directly over the black-top foun- 
dation put in by the Curlers sev- 
eral years ago. They had hoped 
then that there would be enough 
natural ice if there were a shallow 
water-tight foundation for flood- 
ing. This did not work out, both 
because of the mild winters lately 
and the sun-effect on the ice. 

For the past two winters, The 
Country Club (Brookline) Curlers 
have kindly loaned their ice one 
night a week to a limited number 
of Winchester Curlers and this has 
greatly increased the interest of 
other members who have tried it 
once, or even watched it. Now the 
grand game of Curling will be 
available to all members. 

Many of the older Curlers have 
volunteered to act as instructors 
for any interested members. Curl- 
ing is perhaps one of the most 
amateur sports there is — there 
are just no Curling "Pros”. Curl- 
ing by the Ladies will also he en- 
couraged (there are many women 
Curlers at the Country Club and 
Nashua.) Comfortable seating will 
be afforded "behind the glass” for 
those wanting to watch. 

Funds for the construction have 
been raised largely amongst the 
Curling group. The club is also 
investing and the sport will be a 
club operation. The present fine 
restaurant and food at the club will 
undoubtedly be greatly helped over 
the usual dull winter months, if it 
works out at Winchester as it has 
at all other Country Clubs that 
have added Curling as a winter 
sport. 

There are no golf clubs, tennis 
racquets and such things to be 
bought for Curling. Simply add a 
sweater to your business clothes, 
wear rubbers or rubber- soled shoes 
and you are ready “to go” at an 
indoor Curling Rink. 

The Star will give frequent pro- 
gress reports on the building, new 
Curling members, committees and 
of course the game results. The 
ice is expected to be ready for oper- 
ation early in January and prob- 
ably can be kept up until early in 
April, thus assuring a good Curling 
season this winter.

Parents familiar with the routine 
will be on band promptly at 7:30 
p. m. for the brief home room 
period to meet the home room

well as to hear the latest bulletin 
regarding procedure. 

Following the home room period, 
parents will pass from class to

have already done on Thursday’s 
schedule. Those in the Wadleigh 
building will go to the High School

the Principal’s office, or Mr. Dem- 
sey and Miss Bernhoft in the Guid- 
ance office. 

Interesting displays in the li- 
brary and the art studio will be 
well worth seeing and will furnish 
an opportunity to visit all parts of 
the building. Many will take this 
opportunity to see the so-called 
sample room, number 13 on the first 
floor, which effectively shows the 
advantages of tile floor, sound re- 
sistant ceiling, modem lighting, 
new trends in school room decor- 
ation, and movable furniture. 
Room 13, renovated last year, 
serves as a sample of the complete 
renovation required for fitting out 
the present senior high school 
building in the event it is to he used 
as a junior high school. 


MONTHLY EVENING SERVICES 
PLANNED 


The church committee of the 
Second Congregational Church de- 
cided at its last meeting that there 
was a need for a Sunday evening 
service in their community. They 
felt that the many who had to 
work on Sunday would welcome 
this opportunity of attending a 
church service, even though it 
would be only once a month. There- 
fore, such a program will begin 
this Sunday at 7:30 p. m. 

The committee especially advised 
that the main emphasis be upon 
"informal fellowship” with a 15- 
minute "Song Service.” Thus, there 
will be an opportunity for the people 
to select their favorite songs. Mr. 
Skeirik, pastor, will give a brief 
message from the book of Deute- 
ronomy. This part of the service 
will conclude at 8:00 p. m. so that 
the remaining time can be used for 
personal fellowship and entertain- 
ment. This Sunday the entertain- 
ment will be presented by Mr. and 
Mrs. Frank Allen of West Med- 
ford. They will present color slides 
which they took on their trip to the 
following gardens: the Cyprus 

Gardens of Charleston, South 
Carolina, and West Haven, Flor- 
ida, and the Bellingrath Garden 
near Mobile, Alabama. 

If there is obvious support of 
such a program the church will 
continue it once a month through- 
out the year.

Last year, First Raptist’s an- 
nual fair was an outstanding suc- 
cess, and this season’s fair, to be 
held at the church on Saturday, 
November 21st, promises to be the 
biggest and best yet, with more in- 
teresting booths and displays and 
a wider variety of unusual and 
worthwhile items for sale. 

One of the outstanding attrac- 
tions of the coming Harvest Fair 
will be a Parcel Post Rooth featur- 
ing fascinating gifts from far- 
away places. Mailed back to Win- 
chester this summer by vacationing 
church members, the “surprise” 
packages, still in their unbroken 
parcel post wrappings, have travel- 
ed from many different parts of the 
country and even from foreign 
lands. 

Other colorful booths at the bap- 
tist Fair will feature children’s 
toys and gifts, food, aprons, grabs, 
dolls, candy, plants, scout handi- 
crafts, and jewelry. The popular 
“Up-The-Attic-Stairs” display of 
last year will he repeated again 
this season with an oven wider se- 
lection of “white elephants” and 
other old or unusual articles. The 
“General Store”, offering v just 
about everything but the kitchen 
sink, will ho another drawing card. 

Starting at 10 a. m. on November 
21st, and running all day and 
through the evening, the program 
will include a luncheon at noon and 
a real New England baked bean 
supper at 6:30. First Raptist’s 
members, who are now busily mak- 
ing and collecting the thousands of 
items for their booths, hope that 
their many Winchester friends will 
plan to “come to the fair” on No- 
vember 21st.

OclG-tf 


The annual fall meeting of the 
Friends of the Winchester Hospital

licious refreshments were served 
by Mrs. Maude Callahnm, Hospital- 
ity Chairman, and her committee. 
Pouring at the tea table were Mrs. 
Fulton Drown and Mrs. Howard A. 
Morrison.

has been purchased for the chil- 
dren’s ward by the Friends. Mrs.

Volunteer Services, spoke again of 
the ever-present need for volun- 
teers, and it is hoped that anyone 
who is interested in service to the 
hospital will call Mrs. R. Richard 
Carens at Winchester 6-1357. 

The highlight of the afternoon 
was a panel discussion on “Know

Mrs. E. D. Richmond, “The 
Nursing Staff”. 

Mrs. George A. Marks, “House

Rank, Clinical Pathology Labor 
atory, X-Ray”. 

Mrs. Joy Woolley, “Administra- 
tion”. 

The members of the panel had 
spent many hours in research and 
interviews with department heads 
and the result was an extremely in- 
teresting and informative picture 
of our hospital. At the conclusion 
of the discussion, Mrs. Charles 
Green of the Public Relations Com- 
mittee, Winchester Hospital Exe- 
cutive Roard, announced that small 
conducted tours of the hospital can 
be arranged. If you would like to

Mr. Harlan L. Paine, Jr., Hos- 
pital Administrator, spoke briefly 
and thanked the Friends for their 
latest gift to the hospital, the

ed the hospital’s appreciation for 
the work our organization has 
done.

HARRIERS DEFEAT 
MALDEN CATHOLIC 


On Monclny the high school har- 
riers, still smarting from a drub- 
bing at the hands of Wellesley last 
Friday, ran the Blue Jackets from 
Malden Catholic into the ground 
as they raced to an 18 to 45 victory 
at the Tufts college course. 

The Red and Rlack runners 
moved out quickly at the start of 
the ruce and at the mile mark pre- 
sented a solid block of runners 
broken only by Dunn of Malden 
Catholic running well in the third 

{ >osition. Farrell and Becker mov- 
ng easily built up a solid lead and 
coasted in one and two. In the 
last half mile Bob Becker and Dick 
Borggaard cut down Dunn’s lead 
and might have taken him if the 
race had been a bit longer. Charlie 
Govostes and Larry Tullberg took 
6th and 7th places to complete the 
■coring for Winchester. 

The W. H. S. varsity squad show- 


ed 100' \ improvement over their 
race against Wellesley and Everett 
| Vocational last Friday. They are 
now pointing toward the Pilgrim 
Division Championship meet to be 
held nt Essex Agricultural School, 
Danvers, on October 23rd. Wake- 
field and Wellesley rule as favorites 
but the Red and Black are hoping 
for one of their best days and they 
are planning to make a last ditch 
fight to retain their title. The in- 
dividual championship looks to he 
a three man fight between Schwarz 
of Wakefield, C hapin of Wellesley 
and Farrell of Winchester. Schwarz 
holds a victory over both this sea- 
son but both Chapin and Farrell 
are looking for the upset.

POSTER CONTEST 


Artists among the Sunday school 
members in Winchester’s Protes- 
tant churches are busy this week 
competing for honors in the poster 
contest. The posters are to publi- 
cize Sunday, November 15th, as 
“Loyalty Day” in the United 
Church Canvass, which will be the 
date when all church goers are con- 
tacted for support. 

The posters will be turned in on 
Sunday, October 25th, and after 
judging will be displayed in prom- 
inent show-windows around the 
town. Last year this contest arous- 
ed considerable rivalry among the 
participants and their productions 
evoked favorable comment from 
viewers. 

The winners will bo announced 
in next week’s Star. The theme for 
“Loyalty Day” is “Your Church — 
the greatest hope for the world.” 


We rolled into the second week 
of bowling. The enthusiasm the 
hoys are showing this year is in- 
comparable to any other year gone 
by. 

There were no complaints placed 
before the commissioner this week 
or to his assistant. 

There was a great shuffle of the 
top five bowlers this week as they 
fell by the wayside and five new 
names appear in the limelight. 

The standing of the five top 
bowlers is as follows: 

Average 

R. Riga, Jr. 105.8 

B. Tofuri 104.2 

F. DiMambro 104 

A. Fiore 99.7 

A. Tibaudo 99.2 

The high single, the high triple 
and the high average belongs to 
one man, R. Riga, Jr. 

There also was another record 
broken which should receive recog- 
nition. In looking through the 
records of years gone by, no other 
bowler equalled this record, let 
alone broke it. The “Boss” bowled 
174 for a three string total. 

The Wednesday night raffle went 
off on schedule. The winner was, 
for a change, our good friend 
“Arka” Amico. 

We are expecting a greater show 
of excitement and enthusiasm upon 
the return to his Alma Mater 
“of Wedding Bells Bob”. 

Sec you next week.

Serving Winchester for over 17 Years 



With their minds on Melrose and 
Wakefield, both looming up as im- 
mediate and dangerous threats, 
Winchester’s football team played 
well enough to win last Saturday 
at Stoneham, although out-scored 
in the second half by a scrappy 
Stoneham team sparked by a cool- 
headed quarterback in Saunders 
and a very elusive halfback in 
Lawrence, wearing No. 11 on his 
hlue jersey. 

If Winchester was playing under 
wraps in view of the coming game 
with Melrose this week, there may 
have been some excuse for being 
out-scored, if not out-played, by a 
lighter team during the second half 
of the game; for fumbling the ball 
on key plays; for several sloppy 
tackles; and for permitting young 
Mr. Lawrence, who weighed pos- 
sibly 145 pounds, to waltz through 
their guards and tackles for sev- 
eral important nine or ten-yard 
journeys before being stopped by 
the safety man; for being fooled 
by a delayed forward pass two or 
three times, on one of which only 
a flying interception by Bellino 
saved a touchdown. 

We don’t mean to imply that 
Winchester played a poor game of 
football from whistle to whistle. 
Actually there were several indiv- 
idual contributions worth record- 
ing and worth watching, such as 
excellent blocking on end runs, per- 
haps the best of which were fur- 
nished by Dattilo and Bellino; the 
recovery of four Stoneham fum- 
bles, two by Cullen and two by Dat- 
tilo; two interceptions of Stone- 
ham passes by Murphy and Bellino 
to stop dangerous drives; Mike 
Murphy’s lmttering-ram drives in- 
to the Stoneham hack-field (if Mike 
would learn to use a straight-arm 
against would-be tacklers, he could 
go all the way and also save wear 
and tear on his helmet). 

While each team racked up 13 
first downs, Winchester carried the 
ball by land 235 yards to Stone- 
ham’s 150. Out-weighed man for 
man in both line and back-field, 
Stoneham became air-minded, com- 
pleting six out of 8 passes for 
short distances, although missing 
on three long scoring attempts. 

While missing on three tries, 
Winchester completed three for 28 
yards, 9 yards, and 25 yards respec- 
tively against a total of only 38 
yards in six Stoneham aerials. 

The game was marred by nine 
fumbles, three by Winchester. 
Possibly the loose hall was the re- 


sult of hard tackling or hard-hit- 
ting line play. At any rate, the 
frequent fumbles added a spice of 
excitement to an otherwise often- 
times unexciting contest. 

Winchester’s forward line out- 
charged Stonehnm’s lighter line all 
afternoon, but, as in the Winthrop 
game of the previous week, delayed 
bucks frequently found big holes 
between guard and tackle for dan- 
gerous drives by Stoncham’s left 
halfback Lawrence, who was a hard 
man to keep bottled up. 

As the teams lined up for the 
second half, with the score 20 to 0 
in favor of Winchester, Stoneham 
executed an onside kick which they 
recovered on the Winchester 40 
yard line largely because the Win- 
chester end on that side of the field 
was slow to grasp the situation. 
From then on Stoneham drove 
steadily to a score. 

Winchester Seconds played more 
during the first half than in the 
second, largely due to the fact that 
Stoneham was inspired by its first 
score and was able to control the 
ball a large part of the time. 

The Red and Black should and 
will he up for the game this week 
at Melrose and will have to show a 
much more consistent and wide- 
awake defense than they showed 
against Stoneham. Melrose has 
one back that can go for the dis- 
tance when he gets into the clear, 
and the Wincheester line will he 
forced to drive into the Melrose 
backfield on every play to stop him. 

Stoneham won the toss and elect- 
ed to receive. Riordan kicked to 
Lawrence on the 20 and the run- 
back reached the 27 yard line. 
Saunders passed to Dixon on first 
down for eight yards. On the next 
play Dixon made three yards 
through left guard for a first down 
on the 35 yard line. Saunders made 
one at center and then passed to 
Dixon for seven more. On third 
down Dixon hit right tackle for two 
yards and a first down on the 48. 

Jimmy Cullen recovered a Stone- 
ham fumble of the next play and 
Winchester took over on Stone- 
ham’s 44. Murphy made a yard 
through tackle. Haggerty made 
another through guard. On third 
down Bellino whirled on a delayed 
buck to the 34 and a first down. 

Haggerty lost a yard at left end. 
Murphy made five through center. 
Murphy made one yard through 
right tackle. Pratt passed to 
O’Brien for a touchdown from the 
28 yard line. Riordan kicked the 
extra point. Score: Winchester 7, 
Stoneham 0. 

Riordan kicked to Dixon on the 
five and the Stoneham back ran the 
kickoff hack to the 22. On first 
down Saunders passed to Lawrence 
for six yards. Salera recovered a

the 10 and carried to the 31. Saun- 
ders passed to Dixon on the 37 for 
six yards. On second down Win- 
chester recovered a fumble on the

Rimbach made distance, but a 
clipping penalty put the hall back 
on the Stoneham 46, first down, 16 
to go. Lindsey on a quarter-back 
end run, reached the Stoneham 29 
for a first down. Rimbach drove 
off left tackle to the fifteen for an- 
other first down. On a long pass 
Lindsey overthrew his receiver and 
the half ended.

ART ASSOCIATION 
MEMBERS' SHOW 


The first meeting of the Noonan 
School chapter of the Junior Red 
Cross was hold recently, with the 
entire school in attendance. To 
open the program everyone joined 
in the Pledge of Allegiance and in 
the singing of the Star Spangled 
Banner. Reports were read by Sec- 
retary James Flaherty and Treas- 
urer Patricia Parino. 

Following these reports, ouch of 
the room representatives was heard 
from. Among these were Harry 
Lindmark, Mary Dooly, Kevin Col- 
lins, Alice Quigley, Kevin Cullen, 
Lorraine Dewar, Marilyn Walsh, 
Jean Lonigro, and Henry Cogan. 

One of the most interesting parts 
of the program was the talk by 
Ronald Chabot on the subject, 
“Why We Should Ciive to the Red 
Cross.” Ronald said, “We should 
| all be proud when we wear a lied 
(.'ross button, for it means that we 
have given something of ours to 
help others less fortunate than 
we are.” 

At the conclusion of the regular 
meeting, a program on Courtesy 
was presented, with each of the 
grades participating. William Hag- 
gerty was the master of ceremo- 
nies. Miss McAuley’s kindergart- 
ners presented 10 proofs that they 
are trying to be good citizens, while 
those in Mrs. Gunderson’s class 
told about the flag. Pupils in Mrs. 
Mead’s Grade I showed how they 
can be helpful around the building, 
and Mrs. Hancock’s first graders 
presented pictures and stories on 
“How We Can Make Our Room a 
Happy Place to Work and Play.” 
the upper grades 


As varied as the personalities in- 
cluded in the Winchester Art Asso- 
ciation are the abilities revealed in 
the exhibition now in the Library 
gallery. The traditional style is 
represented in all the usual ways 
except that none of the paintings 
is “stuffy”; in competent land ; Children from 
and seascapes, portraits, and ani- contributed original stories, songs, 
mal studies done in the meticulous and courtesy rules. An original 
manner usually associated with play, “Schoolroom Courtesy,” was 
Chinese or Persian artists. Sev- j performed by members of Grade 
oral members have contributed two 0. 
canvasses, in each case showing) 
versatility as to medium and sul>- j 
ject. 

Those paintings contemporary in 
style are in a considerable minority 
as to number but they concede mini stra tor of Winchester Hospi- 
nothing in the matter of capability, tal, has just attended a course con- 
Outstanding among these is the | ducted by the American College of 

Hospital Administrators in coope- 
ration with the Harvard Business 


Mr. Greer added that if the town 
voted for the plan set forth by the 
selectmen, and outlined in the war- 
rant for the meeting October 22, 
nnd if no referendum was asked 
for, the selectmen would he em- 
powered to continue negotiations 
with the State and the State would 
begin work immediately, starting 
first work clearing the Railroad 
area near Swanton street, and 
building temporary trestles. The 
Railroad would offer its materials 
needed, Western Union and signal- 
ling equipment would he moved, 
and by Spring, contracts for work 
would be awarded. The town is 
asked for $190,000 — a sum the 
Selectmen assured the audience 
would be a guaranteed figure. In 
the meantime, while the prelim- 
inary building is going on, traffic 
will have to be re-routed, and on 
this subject, help will he asked 
from the Traffic Department of the 
State. 

If the town does not vote to ac- 
cept the plan or appropriate the 
money requested, Mr. Greer made 
it clear that the state could go 
ahead with the plan, and assume 
the entire financial burden. 

Mr. H. G. Wagner asked if the 
selectmen could estimate the defi- 
nite loss in taxes that would incur 
through land-taking, and Mr. Greer 
said that would be brought up at 
town meeting. That was a ques- 
tion others in the audience had 
also planned to ask, feeling that the 
loss of taxable property, or any 
property depreciation, would lie 
felt by the town for years to come. 

Dr. Milton Quinn brought up a 
pertinent problem concerning sani 
tation and while he contributed 
some merriment to the meeting, 
underlying his wit was a definite 
question on the toilet facilities of 
the trains passing through Win- 
chester. Mr. A. J. Hewis brought 
up another pertinent point, on what 
plan the town has for any re-ar 
rangement or disruption of town 
services such as gas, light, wate 
fire, and this question was promis- 
ed an answer at a town meeting. 

The question was also asked why 
the overhead Railroad question was 
being taken up by the town meet- 
ing members before the question of 
the schools, and how, if sums are 
to be spent on the railroad, will 
there be sufficient funds to start 
much-needed work on the schools? 
On this question of funds for 
schools, Mr. Greer told the audience 
that school money would have to be 
raised by a bond issue. On this, 
there was a murmur among the 
parents in the audience, who hope 
to see schools started as the town’s 
No. 1 project. 


THE MALE ANIMAL" 


With football in the air and aca- 
demic freedom in the news, the 
Unitarian Players appropriately 
present “The Male Animal,” by 
James Thurbor and Elliott Nugent 
on November 13 and 14. 

This gay nnd winning comedy 
seems even more timely in its 
struggle of ultra-conservative cen- 
sorship against liberal education 
than when it was first presented by 
the group in 1941. This perhaps 
prompted its successful Broadway 
! revival of last season. As for the 
lighter vein, time has hardly al- 
tered our interest in the war be- 
tween the sexes, which Thurbor 
has here transported from his 
cartoons to the stage. 

Refereeing these two struggles 
as rehearsals progress is Dr. John 
It. Woodruff, co-director of the 
Tufts College Theatre and a resi- 
dent of Winchester. His able 
craftsmanship and active experi- 
ence in the theatre ofTcr new stimu- 
lus to the Players nnd their audi- 
ence. 

From his last role as the gum- 
chewing, fast- working reporter in 
"State of the Union,” . Bradford 
Darling now turns absent-minded 
professor as Tommy Turner, whose 
life goes placidly along until a dis- 
turbing ripple challenges his com- 
posure, jeopardizes the sanctity of 
liis home — and the reticent male 
is transformed into a beast, fight- 
ing for his mate. “The bull ele- 
phant in him is aroused.” The foot- 
hall-star alumnus causing this rip- 
ple is Joe Ferguson, played by 
Thornton Stearns, the earnest 
young juvenile of “Our Town.” At 
the apex of this triangle perches 
Ellen. Tommy’s pretty wife, play- 
ed by a newcomer to the group, 
Bettina Harrison. 

A similar triangle among the 
college students involves another 
newcomer, William S.vmes, us the 
intellectual Michael Barnes; Rob- 
ert McMasters, also in his first 
role, here as football-hero Wally 
Myers; and Diana Mansfield as 
Patricia Stanley. 

As the loud-mouthed Ed Keller 
will be Harry Wood, the genial Doe 
Gibbs of “Our Town,” and as Myr- 
tle Keller, Charlotte Burr. Profes- 
sor Robert D. Eddy of Tufts ap- 
pears as Dean Damon and Muriel 
Dantona as his wife. 

Cleota, the maid with more per- 
sonality than efficiency, will he 
Dorothy Abbott; and Bunny Blair 
appears as a snappy band major- 
ette.

WINCHESTER 

HOME AND GARDEN CLUB 

The Fall meeting of the Win- 
chester Home and Garden Club was 
hold at the home of Mrs. Wilfred 
McKenzie, 20 Ardley place on Wed- 
nesday afternoon, October 14th. 

Mr. Allan H. Wood, Jr., was the 
speaker, his subject being “Autumn 
Planting and Winter Care”. From 
his wide knowledge and experience 
he gave many valuable sugges- 
tions on the care of our gardens and 
explained that great care and wis- 
dom is needed in preparing them 
for the winter months. How to 
prevent the rabbits from eating the 
garden flowers and vegetables! 
Place coco-cola bottles flush with 
the ground near the flowers and 
vegetables, and Lo! Mr. Rabbit 
and even Mr. Woodchuck will not 
visit them. The air blowing across 
the open bottles, tho’ not audible 
to human ears is to Mr. Bunny 
and Mr. Woodchuck, a most mys- 
terious and terrifying noise. An- 
other helpful suggestion is to plant 
ones tulip blubs 8 to 14 inches 
deep, in so doing the bulbs will not 
have to be removed and will blos- 
som for several years. Following 
his lecture a question period was 
held and again Mr. Wood proved

REV. ROBERT II. LITTLE 


THE SENIOR FORUM

| Sunday of the month, Forum will 
this Sunday attend Church at 10:45

speak on “The Devil’s Double 
Talk”. Forum Chaplain will be 
President Harold McKinley, Jr.

Kendall Cleaves, Robert Crockett, 
David Cowing, William Jesdalc and

drew Robertson, William Ross and 
Dana Sawyer. All Forum mem- 
bers are reminded to check their 
attendance on the Tag Hoard in the 
Church Vestibule before they go 
to Church. 

At 5:30 p. m. Forum will gather 
for their evening’s program which 
will get ofT to a good start with a 
chance to meet a very special per- 
son in the Congregational Youth 
groups, — Boh Rasche who is the 
student head of the Pilgrim Fel- 
lowship for the State of Massachu- 
setts, and a student at Northeast- 
ern University. * Those who came 
to know Boh Rasche at summer 
conference are eagerly anticipating 
j the chance to renew his acquaint- 
ance, and are sure that all Forum 
members will also thoroughly en- 
joy the privilege of meeting him. 

At six o’clock supper will he 
served by Mrs. Ross Cunningham 
and her committee, Mrs. Robert 
Tonon, Mrs. Fenton Norris and 
Mrs. Richard Gould. 

At the supper. Forum will have 
another special guest, their 
friend Rev. Robert H. Little of the 
Dane Street Congregational Church 
in Beverly. Mr. Little has been a 
“must” on the young people’s pro- 
gram for several years and they 
again await with much interest his 
talk on “The Million Dollar Alibi”. 

Two very busy committee chair- 
men at this particular time are 
Dottie Pratt and Judy Roberts, 
who head up the Work Day for 
Christ activities scheduled for Oc- 
tober 30 and 31. On these two days 
members of Forum will work on a 
variety of jobs and donate their

Harlem Protestant Parish, Spanish- 
Speaking Churches in the South- 
west, National Leadership Train- 
ing Fund, and scholarships for 
youths in the Johannesburg Mission 
in Africa and the German Youth 
Training Center. They have set 
their goal at $300 and would wel- 
come the cooperation of members 
of the Church parish in furnishing 
jobs for this worth-while project.

PLYMOUTH DISPLAYING 
54 MODELS 

The new Plymouth for 1954 went 
on display throughout the United 
States on Friday, October 16, with 
the local display at Logan and 
Chrusz Motors, Inc., 7 Shore road. 

The now Plymouth may he seen 
here at Logan and Chrusz Motors 
Inc., 7 Shore road. 

“We are confident that people 
will like the new beauty of our 1954 
cars, says President John P. Mans- 
field of Plymouth. “We are abso- 
lutely ccrtnin that they are the 
most durable, best riding, best per- 
forming and roomiest cars that 
Plymouth has ever built.” 

Plymouth is using the link type 
of power steering. The hydraulic 
“muscle” is in the steering linkage. 
Plymouth officials say it is the most 
effective, compact and serviceable 
installation produced for cars in 
the low price field. It reduces 
steering effort up to 80 per cent, 
permits fingertip control in tight 
parking situations and promotes 
safe driving through lessening of 
driver fatigue and absorption of 
road shock. 

In its 1954 line, Plymouth offers 
three options in power drives. 

Hy-drive, a no-shift unit made up 
of a combination of torque conver- 
ter and three-speed transmission, 
was introduced during the 1953 
model year. It will be in volume 
production for 1954 models. The 
two other options are Synchro- 
Silent three- speed transmission 
and Synchro-Silent with Overdrive, 
which provides a fourth forward 
speed for cruising. Mansfield said 
more than half the Plymouths now 
being produced have either Hy- 
Drive or Overdrive. 


FALL MEETING 
OF WOMEN S COUNCIL 


The fall meeting of the Winches- 
ter Women’s Council was held in 
the Public Library October 16, the

COMMUNITY SCHOOL 
PAST AND FUTURE 


The quality of Christian educa- 
tion in Winchester’s Protestant 
Churches this year will he better 
because of the training received in 
the Community School of Christian 
Education which closed last Mon- j 
day. Approximately one hundred 
and fifteen were registered during 
the five weeks of clnsses, and many 
favorable comments have testified 
to the valuable help received. 

Thanks are due to all who aided 
the school, most particularly to 
Rev. Walter L. Bailey and the First 
Baptist Church for making avail- 
able its excellent facilities for the 
five evenings. To Rev. Lawrence 
F. Small, Dean of the school, much 
credit is duo for its direction and 
leadership. Mrs. Hugh J. Erskine 
provided the valuable stimulus of a 
well-stocked literature table of 
helpful hooks and pamphlets from 
the Public Library, and a biblio- 
graphy prepared by Miss Corinne 
Mead and her staff. 

Mrs. Warren P. Eldridge served 
as efficient secretary and registrar 
of the school, Mr. Benjamin Gowing 
as treasurer, and Mrs. NoYman J. 
Padelford as publicity chairman. 
All expenses of the school were 
cared for by the Protestant Minis- 
ters’ Association of Winchester and 
our gratitude for this generosity is 
very sincere. 

The planning committee which is 
made up of the ministers and repre- 
sentatives of each of the Protestant 
Churches of Winchester will hold 
a meeting on Friday evening, No- 
vember 6, to evaluate the results 
of the school just completed and 
begin to lay plans for next year’s 
school. Christian education is a 
continuing responsibility and an 
annual school for Church School 
teachers and others interested in 
Christian work with children is a 
necessary aspect of our program. 
Any suggestions for constructive 
improvement will he received glad- 
ly by anyone on the planning com- 
mittee. 


TUESDAY GROUP 


The first meeting of the Tues- 
day Group of the Church of the 
Epiphany was held on Tuesday, 
October 13th, at the home of Mrs. 
J. K. Colony. 

Mrs. Warren D Haley, Chairman 
of the Tuesday Group, presided at 
what proved to he a very interest- 
ing and lively business meeting. 
After the opening prayer, Mrs. 
Haley graciously welcomed all 
newcomers and asked them to 
stand so all could say “Hello” to 
them too. She then asked for the 
reports of the Secretary, Mrs. Ed- 
ward Morse, and of the Treasurer, 
Mrs. Robert Nycre. The following 
then spoke briefly: Mrs. Garrett 
Graves for Ways and Means, Mrs. 
William Hopkins for Program, Mrs. 
John Bird for Hospitality, and Mrs. 
Donald McLean for the Cradle Roll. 
In behalf of the Church Service 
League, Mrs. Gerald Hills asked 
for good used clothing to send 
overseas, Mrs. Donald Heath told 
of the number of surgical dressings 
made for the hospital every week 
and expressed hope that even more 
could he made, and finally Mrs. II. 
C. Fairfield asked everyone inter- 
ested to come to the Church on 
Tuesdays to sew. 

After more discussion of various 
Church projects including the Ba- 
zaar to he held on November 13th, 
the meeting was adjourned and de- 
licious tea was served by Mrs. Vir- 
ginia Dickey and her committee.

WINCHESTER 

WOMEN'S REPUBLICAN CLUB 

Beatrice Hancock Mullaney, Vice 
Chairman of the Republican State 
Committee, addressed the opening 
meeting of the Women’s Republican 
Club held Wednesday, October 14, 
at the Crawford Memorial Method- 
ist Church. 

Speaking on the topic, “It’s 
Worth the Cost”, she pointed out 
the terrific responsibility resting on 
he Republican party to maintain 
its position in the next Congress- 
ional campaign, the difficult “off” 
year for the party in power. We 
cannot he complaisant nor can wc 
become the minority again, she 
warned. We must keep Congress 
Republican so that President Eisen- 
hower’s program may he complet- 
ed. 

Referring to the recent success- 
ful Republican dinner in Boston, 
Mrs. Mullaney described the tre- 
mendous and gratifying response 
to this dinner ns the people’s recog- 
nition of good government. “I am 
convinced,” slu? continued, “that 
thinking people like very much 
what they are getting at state and 
national levels. Governor Herter 
recognizes the vital needs of our 
state. He is selling himself every 
day wherever he appears his poli- 
tical credo being, “I will do what is 
right regardless of whether it 
makes me popular.” He is getting 
increasing support from members 
of the opposition party, even in 
Boston, for the intelligent people 
are reached and impressed when 
they are getting good government.” 

Of great interest to all Republic- 
ans will he the school of politics 
which Lt. Gov. Sumner Whittier is 
currently setting up. There will he 
divisions of the school in ten areas 
of the commonwealth. Five meet- 
ings will he held with two lectures 
and a question period each night. 
Completed plans and details will be 
announced presently. All Republic- 
ans should enroll and learn what 
can he done to keep President 
Eisenhower and Governor Herter 
in office. 

Mrs. Mullaney also urged club 
members to watch for the date and 
to attend the regional federation 
conference of Republican women. 

Concluding her very stimulating 
talk, Mrs. Mullaney challenged her 
audience with this final thought, 
“Women, keep informed and defend 
your party. We must overcome 
the terrific apathy in this country 
and we cannot guard our freedom 
too closely.” 

Mrs. Robert Wood Reynolds, 
president of the club, presided at 
the meeting and introduced the 
guests of honor, Mrs. Sumner Whit- 
tier and Mrs. Robert P. Campbell. 
Tea followed the program with 
Mrs. Alonzo Woodside and Mrs. 
Campbell pouring and Mrs. Whit- 
tier cutting a birthday cake in 
honor of President Eisenhower’s 
birthday which fell on the same day 
as the club meeting.

HARRIERS SPLIT 
WITH WAKEFIELD 

Tuesday the local runners enter- 
tained Wakefield in two meets for 
underclassmen. The first race went 
to the visitors by a score of 24 to 
33 and the second was won by the 
Red and Black by n count of 28 to 
29. 

Both races were well contested 
and it gave the freshmen nnd 
sophomores some fine running ex- 
perience. The first race saw 12 
runners leave the start. The first 
half mile found Moccia nnd Kerr in 
the lead followed closely by Bob 
Dnuphinais of Winchester. At the 
half way post Boh took over the 
top spot and continued to widen his 
margin to win by 150 yards in the 
excellent time of 19:27. Binding in 
4th and Bates, 7th also finished well 
and show promise for the future. 

Eighteen harriers ran the second 
race and this event soon settled in- 
to a red hot duel between Roger 
Maloney of Wakefield and Bob 
Becker of the home team. Run- 
ning almost stride for stride in the 
first mile it wasn’t until the half- 
way point that Boh managed to 
open a five yard margin over his 
opponent. From there to the fin- 
ish the distance remained the same, 
Maloney tried to sprint the last 300 
yards hut Boh held his own and 
added a few extra yards to win by 
3 seconds. Wakefield took second, 
third and fourth position hut Mc- 
Carthy, Franson, and Knecland 
grabbed the 5, 6 and 7 spots and 
Stratton pulled into 9th to sew lip 
the one point victory. Bob’s win- 
ning time was a very fast 17:24, 
his best effort this season.

CHANGE IN TELEPHONE RATES THE PARISIAN MARKET PLACE 


Massachusetts became the 39th 
state in the nntion to adopt a 10- 
ccnt minimum for calls made from 
coin box telephones Wednesday, Oc- 
tober 14th, when the new telephone 
rates approved by the Department 
of Public Utilities October 13th 
went into effect. This increase, plus 
certain increases in monthly base 
rates, complies with the September 
30th order of the DPU. 

Some Massachusetts coin box 
telephones were operating on 
the 10-ccnt minimum basis Wed- 
nesday, hut it may take three days 
to complete the changeover of all 
the 33,000 telephones in the com- 
monwealth, according to Hugh W. 
MacDonald, Massachusetts gene- 
ral manager of the telephone com- 
pany. 

“Telephone coin boxes thnt have 
been changed to a 10-ccnt opera- 
tion will carry signs stating that 
a dime or two nickels will be need- 
ed to complete a call,” Mr. Mac- 
donald explained. “If a telephone 
user drops only a nickel in a coin 
box after the change, he will not 
get dial tone or a response from the 
operator. In such a case, the tele- 
phone user can drop another nickel 
to complete his call, or he can hang 
up and his nickel will ho returned. 
Two nickels or a dime will he need- 
ed to complete a call after a coin 
box telephone has been changed.” 

Mr. Macdonald announced that 
although the telephone company is 
complying with the DPU’s order 
in filing these new rates and put- 
ting them into effect, it will appeal 
from the order to the Massachu- 
setts Supreme Court. He pointed 
out that in its order the DPU au- 
thorized the telephone company to 
collect less than half the additional 
revenues it requested nearly a year 
ago.

WINCHESTER 

DISTRICT NURSING ASSOCIATION 


The associate members of the 
Winchester District Nursing Asso- 
ciation met with the hoard on Fri- 
day, October 16th, to discuss the 
budget and plans for the coming 
year. Mrs. Holdsworth presented 
a very carefully worked-out budget 
which was discussed and voted. 

Miss Phyllis Tucker joined the 
staff of the W.D.N.A. on September 
25th, so that with a full comple- 
ment of nurses the Winchester 
District Nursing Association stands 
ready to be of service to any- 
one in the community who is un- 
der a doctor’s care and who needs 
the part-time services of a nurse. 

She will come into the home once 
a day or once a week to carry out 
any nursing procedure ordered by 
the doctor, and to help make the 
patient more comfortable. She will 
at the same time teach the family 
how to care for the patient more 
effectively. Where there is a new- 


born baby the nurse will show the 
mother how to bathe it, care for 
it and make the formula. In the 
field of health guidance she will 
advise on diets and nutrition and 
teach groups in nursing proced- 
ures. Mrs. Wiklund is currently 
teaching a Red Cross course in 
home nursing at the high school, 
and Girl Scout Troop No. 63 will 
visit the office in preparation for 
their Scout Health Badge. 

The staff of the W.D.N.A. are 
attending the series of eight con- 
ferences in Medford on the Home 
Accident Prevention Program. 
Mrs. Wiklund attended in June the 
convention of the National League 
for Nursing in Cleveland, Ohio. 
The theme of this conference was 
the need for concerted action to 
meet the nation’s nursing needs. 
Mrs. Wiklund recounted to the 
meeting the programs, exhibits and 
educational films as well as the in- 
dividual exchange of ideas with 
other nurses which add greatly to 
the understanding of nursing prob- 
lems and to the effectiveness of the 
public health nurse in the homo 
and in the community.

The winners came in with tails (lying 

During the past three weeks a lot of bureau drawers 
must have had a real cleaning out, for many people re- 
ported by mail, phone, or through their routenian that 
they had a wearable shirt which might qualify as a 
winner. 

TAP of Stonchani reported the oldest shirt, dated 4/28, 
and he will receive three new shirts. 

T F S of Woburn, 6/32, and we arc sending him two new 
shirts. 

C W S of Melrose, 8/32, will receive one new shirt. 

Our purpose in holding this contest was twofold: first, to 
bring to the attention of our regular customers the long 
life which every shirt may expect as a result of Wake- 
field Laundry’s careful methods; and secondly, to acquaint 
new and prospective customers with the high quality ser- 
vice they, too, will receive when they send their shirts 
to us.

from 7:50 until 11:40 p. m. Moder- 
ator Philip Wadsworth presided. 

In addition to appropriating the 
$190,000 the delegates voted to 
authorize the Selectmen, or the 
chairman of the Board of Selectmen 
to enter into definite agreements 
with the Commonwealth through 
its Department of Public Works, or 
with uny other parties in interest 
which will provide for the elimina- 
tion of the grade crossing in the 
center and the construction in con- 
nection therewith of a traffic by- 
pass for through traffic around the 
center. 

Chairman Greer of the Board of 
Selectmen spoke first, reviewing 
the history of the grade crossing 
controversy during the last 60 
years and describing briefly some 
of the plans, other than the over- 
head tracks plan which had been 
advocated for the crossing's elim- 
ination. Among those described 
were the Vinal Plan, the Redfern 
Plan, the Stone Arch Bridge Plan, 
the Bruddock-Symmes Plan, the 
Kellaway Plan and others. 

Continuing, Mr. Greer told how 
in 1945 a town meeting voted the 
Selectmen $2,500 to obtain tech- 
nical assistance in their study of 
the elimination problem and of the 
retaining of Col. Moore as advisor 
and consultant. At a hearing held 
in November, 1945, Mr. Greer said, 
a sense of the meeting vote showed 
430 in favor of eliminating the 
grade crossing by raising the 
tracks, seven for the Kellaway 
Plan and one for the Vinal Plan.

REFERENDUM PAPERS OUT 

Papers have been in circulation 
this week petitioning the Select- 
men for a referendum on the recent 
vote of the special town meeting 
appropriating $190,000 as the 
town’s share of the six million 
dollar project to eliminate the 
grade crossing in the center by 
raising the railroad tracks, and 
authorizing the Selectmen, or 
chairman of the Board of Select- 
men to enter into definite agree 
ments with the Commonwealth of 
Massachusetts through the Depart 
ment of Public Works, or with any 
other parties in interest which will 
provide for elimination in this way, 
and for the construction therewith 
of a traffic by-pass for through 
traffic around the center. 

Referendum papers were taken 
out by Arthur J. Hewis, Jr., and 
I.orence M. Woodside. The signa- 
tures of 250 registered voters are 
necessary on the petition which 
must be filed with the Board of 
Selectmen by 4:30 Thursday, Oc 
toher 29. 

If, after check by the registrars 
of voters, the signatures are found 
to be correct and the petition is in 
order, the Selectmen shall hold a 
meeting within ten days of the 
receipt of the petition and then 
shall set a date for the referendum 
which must be within 14 days of 
the Selectmen's meeting. A tenta- 
tive date of November 24 has beep 
set for the referendum with the 
word at the town hall being that it 
can not he held later than that. 

Presuming that the requisite 
number of signatures arc secured 
and the referendum is called, this 
will mark the second time a refer- 
; ondum has been held in connection 
: with the overhead crossing pro- 
I posal. 

At the 1952 town meeting the 
delegates voted 151 to 1 to approve 
the plan to eliminate the grade 
crossing by raising the tracks and 
to authorize the Selectmen to co- 
, operate in any way with state and 
county officials to bring about the 
i elimination. 

A referendum on this vote was 
held, and following a red hot cam- 
paign, those voting sustained the 
town meeting decision by a vote of 
3,120 to 1,744. 

This year’s town meeting vote 
appropriating the $190,000 for land 
damages and authorizing the Se- 
lectmen to make definite agree- 
ments in the matter of the elimin- 
ation was 143 in favor and 23 op- 
posed, with 16 not voting. 

Should the referendum vote 
again to sustain the vote of the 
town meeting delegates there is lit- 
tle doubt that the authorities can 
justifiably feel that a majority of 
the town sufficiently interested to 
vote on the matter, has approved 
the overhead tracks plan to elimin- 
ation. 

What the authorities will feel 
should the opponents of the elim- 
ination by raising the tracks prove 
successful in overthrowing the vote 
of the town meeting by referendum 
is a question. When asked about 
such a contingency in advance of 
the recent hearing and town meet- 
ing the Chairman of the Board of 
Selectmen quite frankly replied 
that be did not know. 

He felt that the town’s refusal 
to approve the overhead tracks 
plan and to appropriate the funds 
for land damages would put the 
entire matter up to the state, which 
he did not doubt under the law 
would, if it so desired, have the 
right to proceed with the project 
any way. 

The cost of the entire project of 
raising the tracks and providing 
the diversionary highway through 
the Skillings estate is set at six 
million dollars, but since it was 
stated at both the hearing and sub- 
sequent town meeting that the 
plans are not yet entirely complete 
and will he subject to change in the 
actual working phases of the job, 
it can he believed, especially by 
those who have doubted the wisdom 
of the project from the start, that 
the cost will exceed the figure 
named, perhaps by quite a sum. 

Especially have the State author- 
ities been busy with plans for the 
traffic bypass over the old Black 
Ball Portd area, and as late as the 
town meeting is was admitted that 
engineering decisions are still to be 
made before plans for this under- 
taking are in finished form. 


SPECIAL TOWN MEETINGS 

JI NIOK HIGH RKMODKLIM* 
ON NOVEMBER 12 DOCKET. 
TWELVE ARTICLES, INCH B- 
ING DARK IICRST SCHOOL 
ADDITION. NOVEMBER l« 


RED FEATHER HEADQUARTERS 
OPEN 


Close upon the heels of the spe- 
cial town meeting called to con- 
sider the abolition of the Grade 
Crossing in the Center, the Select- 
men have set the dates for two 
more special meetings, the first for 
Thursday, November 12, and the 
second for Monday, November 16. 

The first of the two meetings 
will consider exclusively the report 
of the Building Committee for 
Additional Facilities for the Senior 
and Junior High Schools and will 
determine whether the town will 
authorize the committee to proceed 
with its plans and specifications to 
remodel and enlarge the present 
junior high school to house a four 
year senior high school and will 
provide funds for the original 
equipment of such an enlarged 
building. 

In the event the meeting does so 
instruct the committee, it will he 
asked to appropriate money from 
the available funds in the Excess 
and Deficiency Account, authorize 
the appropriation and expenditure 
of all or any portion of the Sale of 
Town Property Account, and to 
authorize the borrowing of money 
and the issuance of obligations of 
the town therefor under any pro- 
vision of law. 

No mention is made in the war- 
rant for the November 12 meeting, 
or in fact in either of the two spe- 
cial meetings, to act upon the Com- 
mittee’s previously announced plan 
to remodel and renovate the present 
high school building to house a two- 
year junior high school. 

Twelve articles will he brought 
up for consideration by the Novem- 
ber 16 meeting, the first being to 
hear the report of the Lewis Park- 
hurst School Addition Building 
Committee and to see if the town 
will authorize the construction of a 
six-room addition to the Parkhurst 
School, further authorizing the 
Building Committee to proceed 
with such construction. 

If the Committee is authorized to 
proceed with this construction the 
meeting will be asked to appro- 
priate money from the available 
funds in the Excess and Deficiency 
Account and to authorize the bor- 
rowing of money und issuance of 
obligations of the town for such 
construction under any provision of 
law.

WINCHESTER COMMUNITY FUND 
DRIVE OPENS SUNDAY 


With its 1954 slogan of “How 
About A Lift” echoing through the 
town, some (550 volunteer workers 
will open Winchester’s 1954 Red 
Feather Campaign to raise $59,800. 
Doorbells will start to ring on Sun- 
day, November 1, and will continue 
throughout the week, ending Sun- 
day, November 8. 

Arthur W. Pratt, Winchester Red 
Feather chairman, appealed to all 
residents to give generously, lie 
said, “Remember, you help your 
own community when you give to 
the United Red Feather Campaign. 
Last year, 6 agencies in Winches- 
ter gave help to 2737 residents. In 
addition, over 1000 residents were 
served by Red Feather agencies 
located in other communities. 300 
Red Feather agencies, including 
those in Winchester, plus the Unit- 
ed Defense Fund, need your help.” 

The six Winchester Red Feather 
agencies arc: Winchester Home for 
the Aged, Winchester Society of 
St. Vincent de Paul, Winchester 
Girl Scouts, Winchester Boy Scouts, 
Winchester District Nursing As- 
sociation, and Winchester Hospi- 
tal. 

Your gift is a lift for all. 


15th REUNION 

FOR W.H.S. HASS OF 1938 

Last Saturday evening at the 
Hampshire House in Boston, the 
Winchester High School Class of 
1938 held its first reunion since 
leaving school, its 15th! More than 
125 gathered for this occasion,! 
some coming from as far as Wash- 
ington, D. C., for the event. 

Art and Loretta (Gaffney) John- 
son, as master and mistress of 
ceremonies, took charge of the pro- 
gram, introducing Dan Delorey, 
president of the class, who wel- 
comed the members of the class 
and guests. After reporting on 
members of the class who were de- 
ceased President Delorey returned 
the program to Art, who introduced 
the honored guests, Mrs. Robert 
Daly (Mary Mackedon) to whom 
the class yearbook was dedicated, 
coming all the way from Connec- 
ticut to join in the celebration; and 
Mr. Edward A. Bartlett, currently 
principal of the Wadleigh Building 
- and popular basketball coach at the 
High School. High School Prin- 
cipal and Mrs. Wade L. Grindlo 
were also invited to attend, but 
were unable to do so. 

Mrs. Daly expressed pleasure at 
being asked to join in the festiv- 
ities and told of happenings since 
'eaving the High School. 

Mr. Bartlett was then called 
upon and first expressed regrets 
from the Grindlcs at being unable 
to he present. He then gave a 
resume of the class activities in the 
field of athletics, which included 
the Thanksgiving football game 
\$th Woburn, which Winchester 
•ti by the largest score that has 
Ifcen made to date, 46-0. 

He listed the changes in the 
1 ool program, giving the new 
rses added to the curriculum 
ce 19"8, and also telling about 
tjie teachers who are still at 
the school, there being thirteen 
ii all. Mr. Bartlett expressed 
his thanks at being included in the ; 
reunion party, stating that this bad 
; hern hi first reunion with a class 
from Winchester High School, he 
too having started teaching at the 
school in the latter part of 1937. 

Gifts were presented to all the 
guests from the class and a special 
gift was presented to Mrs. Daly, a 
set of matched jewelry, made and 
designed by Miss Grace Irwin, a 
member of the class. A gift is to 
be presented to “Tommy” Parsons, 
a member of the Winchester Police 
Department who has been confined 
to the hospital with polio and could 
not bn present. 

Gifts were presented to members 
of the class coming the greatest 
distance, the longest married, most 
recently married, (six months) the 
most children, (seven); and for the 
most recently born baby (4 weeks). 

Dancing followed the singing of 
th* elusB song, which for future 
classes planning reunions, is not a 
class song at all and no explanation 
can he given as to why it is even 
listed as such. 

Everyone is now looking forward 
to the 25th reunion of the class, and 
even talking of having one for the 
20th, indicating what a good time 
i was had by all and saying a de- 
I served tribute to the committee in 
charge of arrangements. 

The members of the committee 
include; Dan Delorey, Genieva 
(Manning) Roop, “Rocky” DeTeso, 
“Gerry” Ficociello, “Lad” Millican,

Irwin, Alice (Kerrigan) Maguire,

jCaul) Woodard, Loretta and Art 
j Johnson and Jean (Tarbell) Hal 
verson.

The Annual Open House, spoil 
sored by the Winchester High 
School Parent-Faculty Association, 
wilf be held on Thursday evening, 
November 5, at the High School 
and the Wadleigh School. You as 
parents will play the role of stu- 
dents for the evening, and follow 
the regular piogiarft of your chil- 
dren through a school day. This 
will give you an opportunity to 
meet the teachers and learn from 
them firsthand, the aims and objec- 
tives of the courses your sons or 
daughters are taking. With a bet- 
ter understanding of the purposes 
underlying each of these subjects, 
you will be in a stronger position 
to cooperate with your children 
now and to plan more intelligently 
their choice of subjects in future 
years. 

Parents of students in commer- 
cial and practical arts courses are 
particularly urged to attend, for in 
this year of preparation for in- 
creasing facilities in the secondary 
schools, parents should see for 
themselves what is now provided, 
and note the many limitations. 

Because of the large number of 
parents expected, it will be im- 
possible for teachers to hold in- 
dividual conferences about indi- 
vidual students. However, we re- 
mind you that each teacher re- 
serves every Tuesday afternoon 
from 2:35 until 3:15 for confer- 
ences with parents. 

Now, for a few details. Find 
out the number of your child’s 
homeroom and try to be there 
promptly at 7:30 p. in. Also, get 
a copy of your child’s schedule for 
Thursday so that you will know 
where to go each period. 

Refreshments will lie served in 
the cafeteria and you may go there 
when a study period shows in the 
schedule. The study periods will 
also give you an opportunity to 
visit some of the special rooms of 
the school such us the auditorium, 
gymnasium, art room which is on 
the third floor, and library which is 
on the second floor. You are also 
invited to visit the Principal’s 
Office and the Guidance Office. 

We hope to see you licit* on No- 
vember 5 won’t you please come! 
Jf further information is desired, 
please call tin High School, Win- 
chester 6-0649, or Mr. MeCreery, 
you i President at WI 15-203(5. 


With today’s issue of the Woburn 
Daily Times Edward P. “Mack” i 
McKenzie of 24 Symmes road is re- 
tiring from the stall* of the paper 
after an association of 34 years 
as Winchester reporter and repre- 
sentative. Many will miss his col- 
umn in the Times and regret that 
the veteran reporter has finally 
yielded to the repeated urging of 
iiis family to take a well-earned 
rest after his years in harness. 

“Mack” joined the Times stalT 
back in 1919 when the late James 
D. Haggerty, father of the present 
incumbent, was editor. Previous to 
“Mack’s” taking over Winchester, 
Times correspondents had covered 
local news in so-so fashion, but it 
wasn’t long before the new report- 
er was making a full-time job of 
his coverage and through the years 
his column and special stories have 
come to he among the paper’s most 
popular features. 

Day in and day out, come rain 
or high wind, snow, tempest or 
stiffing heat, “Mack” has been eter- 
nally on the job, first at the Times 
office in the morning and back in 
the Center by eight o’clock ready 
to start nosing about for the day’s 
news. Seldom has it been that he 
hasn’t unearthed a good story or 
two during the day. 

Especially interested in sports, 
“Mack” is probably known to more 
old-line spoils characters than any- j 
one hereabouts. Always outspoken 
and fearless in his opinions, his 
prognostications of sports events, 
especially of the yearly Winches- 
tcr-Woburn football games, have 
been eagerly awaited by Times 
readers and have proved the basis 
of many hot arguments, pro and 
con. 

In the field of local politics few 
have been closer to the real picture 
than “Mack,” who has never hesi- 
tated to take a stand with or 
against local department heads, | 
however popular or unpopular they 
might be. “Mack’s” opinions have 
been eagerly sought by politicos 
and laymen alike in advance of lo- 
cal elections and he has been right 
in his predictions many more times 
than he lias been wrong. 

Everybody knows and has known 
“Mack.” Hundreds have talked 
with him daily, discussing or argu- 
ing town topics and finding him al- 
ways ready to defend his views or 
condemn their stand if he thought 
them wrong. 

Through the years he has run 
baseball teams and maintained or- 
der at Fourth of July children’s 
parties, judged doll carriage and 
costume parados, attended com- 
munion breakfasts at the town hall, 
political dinners at the Country 
Club and spaghetti feeds at the 
Sons of Italy clubhouse. A regular 
attendant at policemen’s and fire- 
men’s halls, as well as at local 
sports events, he yearly occupied 
his place at the town meeting press 
table, his running comments on the 
procedures and personalities of 
town meetings being both pene- 
trating and priceless. 

A lifelong resident of Winches- 
ter, “Mack” has always loved the 
town and worked for its best in- 
terests as he has seen them. He is 
something of an authority on old 
Winchester and his knowledge of 
the old families und historic spots 
about town is extensive. Often in 
his column he wrote interesting 
stories about old times or places 
when something occurred to recall 
them to his mind. Long a resident 
of tin* North End and as a young 
man for years a gardener on some 
of the finest places of the West 
Side, “Mack” has known them all, 
high and low, rich and poor, saint 
and sinner. 

Now at the age of 85 “Mack” is 
going to cover his typewriter after 
34 years of hatting out local news. 
Who would deny him the vacation 
lie can now enjoy. His yearly “one- 
day fishing trip” lias been a vaca- 
tion joke the Star has long enjoyed 
with him. He has always been eter- 
nally on the job. 

He deserves unlimited time to 
enjoy the sports events on TV and 
to pick up new Irish song and dance 
numbers. May lie live long to enjoy 
the fruits of labor well done and 
to do the things now that he wants 
to do without regard for making 
his paper’s deadline!

son spoke with appreciation of the 
loyal support he had received dur- 
ing the war years and during the 
construction program and stated

ty and support would he given to 
his successor in carrying on the 
work and meeting the problems 
of the years ahead.

pressing deep appreciation for the 
services of Harold B. Richmond,

tee and Alfred Denley of the Com- 
mittee in carrying through to com- 
pletion, at close to budget estim- 
ates, the construction program of 
the Hospital during a most difficult 
period which included national 
strikes, labor shortages and rising 
cost s. 

At tlic close of the meeting, Mr. 
Gilbert II. Hood, Jr., Vice-Pres- 
ident of the Hospital, voiced the 
appreciation of the members of the 
Hospital for the accomplishments 
and progress which have taken 
place under Mr. Kenerson’s leader- 
ship and offered the following reso- 
lution which was unanimously 
adopted: 

“Whereas, on the occasion of this 
annual meeting of the members of 
tlie Winchester Hospital, Edward 
II. Kenerson retires as its president 
after serving in that capacity since 
1943, and 

“Whereas, as a member of the 
Building Committee of the Hos- 
pital from 1923 to 1928, Vice-Pres- 
ident from 1939 to 1943 and Pres- 
ident from 1943 to 1953, lie has

FROM THE OFFICE OF 
COLLECTOR OF TAXES 


The General Laws of the Coni* 
momvoalth of Massachusetts, Sec- 
tion 57 of Chapter 59, provides 
that: 

“Interest shall be paid at the 
rate of four per cent per an- 
num on all real estate and per- 
sonal property taxes remain- 
ing unpaid after November 
first of the year in which they 
are payable.” 

November 1, 1953, falls on Sun- 
day. It is the opinion of the Com- 
missioner of Corporations and Tax- 
ation, that the Collectors of Mass- 
achusetts should accept payment 
of 1953 taxes on November 2, 1953,. 
without interest. It is to be under- 
stood that payments not received 
by the Collector until November 3, 
1953, are not to be accepted with- 
out required interest computed 
from October 1, 1953. 

Payments of 1953 taxes will be 
taken without interest in the event 
that payment either in the form 
of a check, money order or cash is 
in the Collector’s office before the 
regular closing hours, 4:30 P. M., 
on November 2, 1953.

tators with the information on each 
play. Ted Bartlett will be the broad-

WINCHESTER GARDEN CLUB 


At the beautiful home of Mrs. 
Roland V. Patrick the first meeting 
for the season of the Winchester 
Garden Club was held, the charm 
of the grounds and the spacious- 
ness of the looms providing a won- 
derful setting for the meeting. Des- 
sert was served before the meet- 
ing, Mrs. Edward V. French assist- 
ing the hostess, with Mrs. Norman 
M. Mitchell at the coffee urn. An 
exquisite arrangement of yellow 
roses, white grapes and ivy in a 
beautiful epergne in the center of 
the dining table attracted great 
admiration from the members of 
the club. 

Mrs. Samuel It. Kirkwood, pres- 
ident, conducted the business meet- 
ing with her usual charm, after 
which Mrs. Norman M. Mitchell, 
program chairman, announced the 
afternoon program, "Flowering 
Bulbs throughout the Year,” which 
was ably presented by the follow- 
ing club members: 

Mrs. Waldo V, Lyon took the 
subject of the earliest spring bulbs, 
beginning with the snow drops, il- 
lustrating her talk with pictures 
of the flowering bulbs; 

Mrs. Kirkwood, from her wide 
experience, supplied the names of 
many of the best varieties of tu- 
lips; 

Mrs. Mitchell spoke on the ever- 
fascinaiing subject of lilies; 

Mrs. John B. Wills brought inter- 
est to the subject of autumn flow- 
ering bulbs, such as the colchicums, 
which bring a late bloom to the 
garden; 

Mrs. William C. Ross, speak- 
ing of house plants raised from 
bulbs, brought several examples of 
these satisfactory plants to illus- 
trate her subject, including the cal- 
ladiuni, with its fascinating green 
and white leaves, the gloxinia, with 
its gorgeous blooms, and the dainty 
oxalis, in a new variety, with much 
larger leaves.

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1953 


W.H.S. CROSS COUNTRY 


Winchester High School’s cross 
country team traveler! to Danvers 
yesterday for the Divisional Meet 
held at Essex Agricultural School. 
Other members of the Pilgrim Di - 1 
vision included Wakefield, Woburn, 
Concord, Wellesley, Everett Voca- 
tional, and Revere. With the league 
competition at the halfway point, 
Wakefield leads with 1 wins and no 
losses. Wellesley, Woburn, ami 
Winchester , which was last year's 
title holder, appear to be about j 
equal in power, but Wakefield was 
the strong favorite. 

Outstanding in league competi- 
tion is Swartz of Wakefield, who is 
as yet unbeaten. Lou Farrell, who 
was Winchester’s freshman sen- 
sation last year, lost to Swartz 
when he had the misfortune to come 
up with a severe injury in the open- 
ing meet of the year. Lou expects 
to even the score before the season 
is over. 

Among the officers of the Middle- 
sex Cross Country League for this 
year are President Thomas A. 
Morse of Winchester, Vice-Presi- 
dent Carleton Seamons of Belmont, 
and Secretary-Treasurer Robert 
Gleason of Watertown. 

The climax of the league’s com- 
petition will come on October 31, 
when runners from both the Pil- 
grim and Pioneer divisions face 
the starter’s gun at Tufts College. 
The MCCL is one of the strongest 
leagues in the state, and close to 
300 boys participate in the varsity 
and junior varsity race each year. 
At the state meet last year three 
of the four classes were won by 
teams from Middlesex. Class A was 
won by Melrose, Class C by Wake- 
field, and Class I) by Winchester. 


BOWLING PARTY 

The next meeting of the First 
Congregational Church Young 
Adults Group will be a bowling 
party. The group will meet at Strike 
Lanes, 7 Winchester place, at 8 
o’clock on Friday evening, Novem- 
ber 6, for bowling, and will then 
go to one of the members’ homes 
for relaxation, music and refresh- 
ments. 

All young, unmarried people are 
cordially invited. A variety of in- 
teresting meetings have been ar- 
ranged for the fall and winter 
months.

HARRIERS LOSE TO WELLESLEY, 
DEFEAT EVERETT VOCATIONAL 

The local runners traveled to 
Wellesley last Friday, October Iff, | 
for a meet with the home club and 
also Everett Vocational. The Red 
and Black, running one of their 
poorest races, took a sound benting 
from Wellesley and just managed 
to edge Everett. 

The race saw 50 runners facing 
the starters gun. At the start the 
Wellesley team raced away to an 
early lead with Winchester runners 
showing poor judgment in the 
early pace. At the halfway point 
Lou Farrell and Chapin of Welles- 
ley had taken a slight lead over 
Captain Becker of Winchester and 
Bottsford of the home club. In the 
meantime a solid block of Welles- 
ley runners had formed behind 
these leaders. With a half mile to 
go Farrell had established a 40 
yard lead over Chapin and had the 
race well in hand. He came on to 
finish in the top spot and tied the 
course record in 13:42. Chapin 
took second with John Becker a 
strong third. However, the next 
five positions were taken by Wel- 
lesley men before Dick Borggaard 
finished in 0th place. This block 
of runners cinched the victory for 
Wellesley with the score 24 to 36. 
This loss was tough to take for the 
Winchester team as they expected 
to give Wakefield a run for the Div- 
isional title at Essex Aggies on 
October 23rd. It now appears that 
the local team can be conceded 
only an outside chance to capture 
the chumpionship they have held 
for two years. 

In the scoring of the Everett 
Vocational meet the Red and Black 
managed to win a close 26 to 29 
victory with Farrell and Becker in 
the one and two spots. Borggaard, 
5th, Smith, 8th, and Morgan, 10th, 
completed the scoring for Win- 
chester. 

The Junior Varsity continued 
their string of victories with two 
wins over Wellesley by a score of 
26 to 33 and Everett Vovcational 
by 18 to 45. Govostes led the pack 
in the Everett Vocational meet with 
Stratton in 2nd place. In the Wel- 
lesley meet Boehne of the home 
club was in the winners spot while 
Charlie Govostes took the runner 
up position.

The third week of bowling has 
come and gone with more changes 
in the top five bowlers as the tempo 
increases. 

The standing of the top five 
bowlers is as follows: 


on bowling night the excitement 
and cheering could he heard out- 
side the bowling coliseum. I did- 
n’t know what to expect. For a 
moment I thought Julius La Rosa 
was visiting hut no, a greater sur- 
prise was in store for me, “Wed- 
ding Bells Robert” was hack. 

Seen among the spectators was 
our good friend Jack Pantalea. 

What good friend of ours howls 
with a pipe dangling from his 
mouth ? 

Who was it that could not stand 
up in alley 6? P. S. He also wears 
bowling shoes. 

Believe it or not — Ben Gillotti 
bowled a 3 string total of 273. 

“Papa Corrigador” and his chil- 
dren arc setting the pace. 

There were no complaints this 
week. 

The winner of this week’s raffle 
was our good friend Nick Molea. 

See you next week.

BADMINTON FREE INSTRUCTION 
SESSION SUCCESSFUL 

Many now faces wore present at 
the high school gym for badminton 
this week taking advantage of the 
special free instruction announced 
last week. 

The court set aside for this pur- 
pose was kept busy both Tuesday 
and Thursday evenings as the new 
players concentrated on learning 
the fundamentals of the game and 
entered into the spirit of things 
enthusiastically. 

Just a reminder thnt nil otic 
needs to play are flat-soled sneak- 
ers and play clothing. 

Another honor was bestowed up- 
on the Badminton Club last week 
when, at the annual meeting of 
the Massachusetts Badminton As- 
sociation held at the University 
Club, President Larry Palmer ac- 
cepted for the club a plaque for 
winning the Class C-D Mixed Dou- 
bles and Ladies Doubles for 1952- 
53. This is being added to the two 
plaques won the previous year. 

Also, club members celebrated 
Hallowe’en with a special party of 
their own on Thursday evening 
with all members required to wear 
masks during the evening’s play 
and donuts and cider being served 
later. It proved to be a gay and 
well-attended affair.

AMICO OUT OF N. H. FOOTBALL 


Paul Amico, former Winchester 
High School football star, and cap- 
tain of the Winchester team of 
1949, has been forced out of foot- 
ball at the University of New 
Hampshire by a shoulder separ- 
ation which will shelve him for the 
remainder of the season. Since 
Paul is a senior his college football 
days are over. 

The chunky Winchester boy | 
climaxed a great high school career 
by nearly beating Woburn single 
handed in his final Thanksgiving 
Day game on Manchester Field. 
Throughout his senior year he was 
the mainstay of his team offensive- 
ly, and at the conclusion of the sea- 
son he was chosen to play in All 
Star games both at Manning Bowl, 
Lynn, and in Florida. 

He made the University of New 
Hampshire freshman team in 1950 
and played two years of varsity 
ball at Durham as a defensive half- 
hack in the two platoon system. 
This year as a senior he was being 
groomed to play two ways when he 
hurt his shoulder even before the 
start of the regular season. 

He still continued to play as he 
was able until a second injury to 
the shoulder resulted in the separ- 
ation that ended his playing days, 
as a collegian. 


ATTENDED REUNION 
IN ST. LOUIS 


Mrs. Alice G. Miller of 22 Myr- 
tle street recently spent four days 
in St. Louis, flying both ways. She 
attended a family reunion, where 
her daughter, Ruth, who is on her 
way to Texas, also was present. 
Mrs. Miller spent two days observ- 
ing the work in the remedial read- 
ing clinics in the St. Louis public 
schools. 

Miss Ruth G. Miller has gone to 
San Antonio, Texas, where she will 
play in the violin section of the 
San Antonio Philharmonic Orches- 
tra for the winter season. 


THE SENIOR FORUM 


On this Sunday, November 1, the 
Senior Forum of the First Congre- 
gational Church will resume their 
chapel services by meeting at 9:30 
to bear the minister of our neigh- 
boring Second Congregational 
Church, the Rev. A. John Skeirik. 
The chaplain will be Andy Robert- 
son, and assistant chaplain will be 
Richard Kmerson. Acting ns dea- 
cons will he John Butler and Ray 
Simpson, and ushering will be Bill 
Mock and Dick Johnson. 

Mr. Skeirik received his A.B. de- 
gree from Syracuse University, 
and his S.T.B. degree from Boston 
University School of Theology, 
and later had one year of graduate 
work in Religious Education at 
Union Theological Seminary. Af- 
ter being ordained in the Methodist 
Church, he served as Assistant 
Pastor and Director of Youth at 
Tabernacle Methodist Church, 
Binghamton, N. Y.; and was Meth- 
odist pastor in Wyoming Confer- 
ence of New York State. This past 
year he transferred to the Woburn 
Association of Congregational Con- 
ference and is now serving as min- 
ister at the Second Congregational 
Church, Winchester. 

The Forum Worship Committee, 
under the chairmanship of Carol 
Ashenden and Joan Morrison, are 
this month planning the worship 
services with the over-all theme 
of “Christian Action.” Mr. Skeirik 
has chosen as his topic for this 
Sunday, “A Mind Must Love God.” 

The Forum Work Day for 
Christ activities are now in full 
swing as members are working dili- 
gently, either today or tomorrow 
(October 30 or 31st) to achieve 
their goal of $300 to be distributed 
among five very worthwhile pro- 
jects of the Christian World Mis- 
sion. 


HALLOWEEN 


MISS LAMPREY 
AWARDED SCHOLARSHIP 


Miss Judith Lamprey, daughter 
of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth W. Lam- 
prey of 63 Emerson road, has been 
awarded the Phillips Scholarship 
by Simmons College for the year 
1952-53. 

The scholarship is awarded for 
outstanding scholastic ability and, 
to be eligible, the recipient must 
have a scholastic “B” average. 

Miss Lamprey, a junior in the 
School of Business, is a member of 
the Simmons Y. W. C. A., secre- 
tary-treasurer of the Student 
Christian Association and Outing 
Club. 


Registrar of Motor Vehicles, 
Rudolph F. King, today issued a 
special appeal to motorists to be 
unusually alert while driving on 
Hallowe’en, that special day in the 
year which is reserved as a time of 
great adventure for children. 
Dressed in traditional costumes of 
witches, ghosts, and spirits of an- 
other World, our future citizens 
will he seeking fun as they threat- 
en “trick or treat” to friends and 
neighbors alike. 

It is the duty of motorists to 
keep children free from harm as 
gaily costumed youngsters, their 
minds intent on the fun and frolic 
at hand, will probably expose them- 
selves to greater hazards than at 
any other time. 

Parents must closely supervise 
children and be sure that play 
masks allow ample vision, and they 
should instruct youngsters in the 
proper way to have fun without 
causing malicious damage or de- 
duction to the property of others. 

If motorists and parents will co- 
operate with the enforcement offi- 
cials of the Commonwealth, we can 
prevent serious injury or death to 
little ones over this 1953 Hallo- 
we’en. 


POST COMMUNION BREAKFAST

All teachers and workers of the 
Church School attended corporate

fast as guests of the Church School 
Board of Education.

Hultgren and her assistants, Mrs. 
Harlow Russell, Mrs. Robert Sib- 
ley, Jr., and Mrs. Warren Haley.

In a cleanly fought hut bruising 
battle between two well-matched 
teams, Winchester, scored on early 
in the first quarter by a smoothly 
clicking Melrose eleven, roared 
back to tie the score in four plays, 
and from thnt point on to the final 
whistle, although clawed and 
mauled by their hot-nnd-cold oppo- 
nents, had enough drive to score 
two more touchdowns to one for 
Melrose and to stave off a final 
desperate rally by the Red Raiders 
when Pratt intercepted a touch- 
down pass on his own fifteen yard 
line, from which point, with less 
than two minutes of playing time 
remaining, to sweep to the Mel- 
rose 4 yard line, only to be stopped 
from scoring by time running out. 
Certainly Melrose at that point in 
the game couldn’t have stopped 
Bellino, Haggerty, or Murphy from 
scoring on the next play. 

With frequent time-outs called 
because of players on both sides 
being shaken up and temporarily 
in need of fresh air and rest, the 
game turned out to he a test of 
stamina and the will to win. Al- 
though quickly scored on, Win- 
chester refused to admit defeat and 
never for a moment gave the im- 
pression of a team content with 
anything short of a clean-cut vic- 
tory. And after stopping Melrose’s 
final bid for a possible tie, Win- 
chester had enough in reserve to 
drive from its own fifteen to the 
Melrose four yard line before time 
ran out. 

It was a game of offensive thrills 
supplied by left halfback Malone 
of Melrose, who seemed able to find 
an opening between his right tac- 
kle and right end anytime he want- 
ed to and who kept the Winchester 
backs on their toes all afternoon 
with forward pass threats and 
completions; by fullback Cerretani, 
who while he was in the game 
scored the first Melrose touchdown 
and set up another by a long end 
run of 37 yards; by left end Shim- 
min whose end-around reverses 
were a constant threat and sure 
ground-gainers whenever Melrose 
needed yardage for a first down; 
by Joe Bellino, who to quote from 
the Boston Herald was the best 
back on the field; by Mike Murphy, 
whose pile-driving end runs were 
something to watch. But there 
were defensive gems as well. Bel- 
lino on three occasions as safety 
man broke through three Melrose 
interferers to meet the ball carrier 
head-on and save a score. Pratt’s 
interception of a touchdown pass 
came right after he had broken up 
another which threatened to put 
Melrose in a scoring position. 

On the ground Winchester car- 
ried the ball for 284 yards to 204 
for Melrose. In the air, Melrose 
completed three passes for a total 
of 20 yards and one for the point 
after its second touchdown. Win- 
chester tried only three passes and 
complated none of them. 

Oddly enough, pass interference 
was called once against each team 
on important plays. Pratt’s in 
terception with two minutes left to 
play in the game was the only in- 
terception during the afternoon 
and it definitely shut the door on 
Melrose’s hopes for even a tie score. 

Winchester ran back kick-offs for 
12, 29, and 9 yards, although Bel- 
lino ran Melrose’s second kickoff 85 
yards from his own fifteen hut 
stepped out of hounds in the 46 in 
order to side-step a tackier who 
should have been blocked out of the 
play. Melrose returned kickoffs 6, 
15, 14, and 22 yards. Winchester 
returned Melrose’s one punt 47 
yards. Melrose returned one of 
Winchester’s three punts only five 
yards and the other two went out 
of hounds. 

Actually Melrose ran up 12 first 
downs to Winchester’s 11. Like- 
wise Melrose put the ball in play 
from scrimmage 54 times to 48 
plays for Winchester. 

After watching Winchester in its 
last three games against Winthrop 
Stoneham, and Melrose, one can’t 
help hut lie impressed by the fact 
! that while Winchester cannot be 
out-matched in courage and deter- 
mination to win, considerable im- 
provement could be made in the 
play of the line on defense and in 
the close hackers-up on the line. 
For example, at Stoneham a light 
hut fast left-halfback was able on 
a delayed buck to knife through the 
Winchester line between the tac- 
kles consistently for gains of from 
five to ten yards. No one seemed 
to be able to do anything about it. 

At Melrose last Saturday Ma 
lone, another left halfback weigh 
ing 155 pounds found a spot off his 
right tackle that he liked and was

able to pick up five or ten yards 
every time he hit it and he hit it 
often. A situation like this seems 
to demand the ability to size up 
what’s happening and to improvize 
ways and means to stop it. Fur- 
ther evidence of the inability to 
figure out on the field a way to stop 
a successful play by an opponent 
was provided by Melrose’s end- 
around play which caught the Win- 
chester defense flat-footed every 
time it was tried. 

Perhaps you can’t have every- 
thing. Perhaps we should be satis- 
fied to have a fighting, determined 
team and hope that they will con- 
tinue to he lucky enough to off-set 
any lack of what might he called 
football brains with rugged brawn. 
But what a combination both would 
be ! 

Brains or brawn aside, anyone 
from Winchester who saw the Mel- 
rose game last Saturday came 
away with a feeling of pride in the 
team. Scored on early and con- 
stantly threatened and hit hard, 
even out-smarted now and then, 
they had what it takes to win. You 
might spell it with a capital G.

RED CROSS ELECTION 
AT WASHINGTON SCHOOL 


A spirited campaign for Junior 
Red Cross officers and representa- 
tives was held recently. After can- 
didates had been nominated from 
each classroom, the youngsters or- 
ganized their campaigns, using 
posters, slogans, leaflets, songs and 
cheers. 

As the climax to the campaign 
an assembly was held where each 
candidate was presented to the au- 
dience by acting chairman George 
Neville of Grade V. A number of 
interesting speeches were heard, 
helping the children to make up 
their minds about their choice of 
candidates. At the conclusion of 
the assembly the pupils went to 
their respective classrooms, and 
voted by secret ballot. 

Among the officers and represen- 
tatives elected were the following: 
president, Billy Lamnrehe, Grade 
VI; vice-president, Stephen Dee, 
Grade IV; treasurer, Steve Coch- 
ran, Grade VI; secretary, George 
Neville, Grade V; classroom repre- 
sentatives, Mary Varley, Mark Sul- 
livan, Martha Adams, John Cussen, 
Philip Fischer, Jane Abbott, Judy 
Morison, Hope Barker, Penny Bor- 
den, and Paul Harrigan. In addi- 
tion to arousing interest in the 
Junior Red Cross, the campaign 
served as excellent training in 
citizenship. 


PARKHURST FIRST GRADE TEA 

A tea was held on Thursday 
afternoon, October 22, 1953, at the 
home of Mrs. William Burrows, 5 
Oneida circle, to welcome Mrs. 
Frances Shack ford, the new first 
grade teacher at Park hurst School. 
There are two first grades this 
year. 

Mrs. Shaekford explained to the 
mothers that she approved giving 
the children freedom in the class- 
room yet she believed in discipline 
too. She stated that first graders 
should be taught to be the best pos- 
sible citizens so as to get along 
better at home and in school. 

Following her talk delicious re- 
freshments were served by Mrs. 
Bruce Young, Mrs. Bernhardt M. 
Anderson, Mrs. John Cluir, Mrs. 
Paul II. Comins, Mrs. Robert H. 
Hinckley, Mrs. William L. Wilson,

A NOTE FOR THE POLICE 


October 25, 1953 
Editor of the Star: 

I am sorry to be obliged to write 
this as an open letter but unfor- 
tunately I don’t know the names or 
addresses of those I wish to con- 
tact. I am trying to reach some 
young men whose parents were too 
busy on the evening of Friday, Oc- 
tober 23rd to know where they 
were or what they were doing. 

I am anxious to contact these 
young men because I feel they went 
to a good deal of efTort and missed 
most of the fun, because, after all 
it does take some efTort to let the 
air out of two rear tires and un- 
screw the valves so they can be 
thrown away and that act in itself 
is not too enjoyable. The real fun 
is to stick around and see the con- 
sternation of the owners when they 
find the predicament they're in. In 
this case you hoys hit the jack-pot 
because the owner was a lady in 
her 70\s who had been working at 
the Town Hall since three in the 
afternoon and you’d have died 
laughing to see her, tired and 
just recovering from a sprained 
ankle, get into her car at 9:30 at 
night and try to drive off. It real- 
ly was hysterical. However even 
though not present you were suc- 
cessful in having the rim cut one 
of the tubes. 

I must apologize to you for spoil- 
ing some of the fun by having her 
driven home in my car, hut I did 
feel she should get off that sore 
foot. However it may compensate 
a little for you to know that I had 
been up since six that morning hav- 
ing started fairly busy a day at 
8:15 by speaking to an assembly 
at the Norwood High School. The 
Subject? Ironically its one you 
know all about and couldn’t he less 
interested in — it was about social 
etiquette and the importance of 
having consideration and respect 
for other people and other people’s 
property. 

You will he delighted to know 
however, that there were no service 
stations open to accommodate us 
that night which meant that my 76 
year old dad had to locate a pump 
and valve stems and drive to Win- 
chester where we pumped up the 
undamaged tire and put on the 
spare. It was then after 11 p. m. 
and we still had to drive one car to 
Arlington and the other to Boston. 

I’m sorry to report I didn’t have 
an adult class waiting for me at 
the Arlington Studio as I often 
have had in the past, because then 
your humor could have affected 
that many more people, hut better 
luck next time. 

Sorry also that you weren’t 
around to enjoy the fun, hut per- 
haps this report will help. 

Very truly yours, 

Russell D. Curry

which is self-explanatory. 

In the event you decide to pub- 
lish all or part of this letter, and 
refer to the Selectmen, you should 
make it clear that the persons are 
unknown to us and that we are in 
no way endorsing this appeal. 

Yours very truly, 

The Board of Selectmen 
Don S. Greer, Chairman 

Ed. Note: We, too, know nothing 
of the writer of the following let- 
ter, which we print without further 
comment. 

Looking for Friends in America! 

In n few months’ time my wife 
nnd I are to emigrate to the States, 
accompanied by our two small sons 
of 2 nnd 4 years’ age. 

We have over there neither rela- 
tives nor friends. Therefore we 
want to get acquainted with friend- 
ly people in this country, who 
might he willing to become kind of 
foster-parents for us, lending their 
helping hands to make us “at 
home” over- there in the foreign 
country, which is to become our 
hoys' homeland nnd to which they 
ought to pledge their loyalty one 
day. 

My wife and I are both 40 years 
old nnd have a fairly good know- 
ledge of school-English. We 
have a typical German name, hut 
we hope to become good American 
citizens with time, and, what’s 
more, assimilate well and wholly. 

To facilitate this process we 
would he glad to find people, pos- 
sibly un elderly couple without 
progeny, who would ho willing to 
adopt me and mine, giving us their 
American name. 

The adoptation of « small child 
is always a great risk, as nobody 
can foretell the further develop- 
ment of the babe, hut with grown- 
up things are different: one knows 
with whom one has to do! 

I venture the somewhat hold 
aflirmation, that nobody would he 
cheated, when becoming our foster- 
parent. 

We are Christians of protestant 
faith, of most honorable, though 
humble families, and made both our 
way with great energy, rising 
steadily to always better life-con- 
ditions. 

I am horn in Czechoslovakia just 
before World War I. After having 
attended elementary schools and 
commercial schools, I started busi- 
ness-life. Before the war I had 
special training as engineer, serv- 
ing with the Czechoslovakian army, 
until the country became part of 
Germany, and I was obliged to join 
the German army. After the war I 
settled as refugee in Wurttemberg 
Germany, and became a writer of 
fiction and publications about prac- 
tical psychology. My wife is 
brought up nicely and was a secre- 
tary for some years. 

We can both prove to have never 
had trouble with law-suits or 
punishments, nor with the author- 
ities, if you won’t consider thus the 
sad fact, that both our parents 
have been killed by the bolshies — 
lienee you may deduce our feelings 
in regard to communists. 

This letter you arc free to send 
to news-agencies or to some lonely 
elderly couple, that would be 
pleased to get grand-children as a 
joy for their old age. 

We do not lay any claim upon 
material support, as we are both 
young enough and ready enough to 
work and to earn our cwn living. 

We plainly were glad to find 
friendly helpers to ease our paths 
in the new land. 

Apologizing for the bother we 
are giving you we send you our 
best greetings and thanks in ad- 
vance for all you might he doing 
on our behalf.

REQUESTS A 
REPRESENTATIVE VOTE 


Editor of the Star: 

It is hoped that every citizen 
will turn out nnd vote at the ref- 
erendum to lie held soon, relative 
to the grade crossing question, and 
especially those who oppose the 
raising of the railroad. 

Let the citizens show by their 
ballots that this ill-conceived plan 
that has been forced down our 
throats at a cost of some millions 
of money is not justified when only 
by building the by-pass will the 
traflie problem he solved at a rea- 
sonable cost. 

With all the money we soon will 
he called upon to appropriate for 
schools, fire houses, parks and 
playgrounds and to help pay for 
the many state roads being built, 
we soon will have a tax rate that 
will call for another “Tea Party.” 
Show more interest than the pre- 
cinct members who did not attend 
the recent town meeting nnd have 
their noses counted on so impor- 
tant a matter. I would say a very 
limited town meeting.

SPECIAL TOWN MEETING 


(Cont.nued from Page 1) 


MOTORIST MUST BE ALERT 

“The great beauty and splendor 
to be observed along every Mass- 
achusetts highway during this time 
of year will lure thousands of mo- 
torists into the country seeking the 
ever-changing scenery of early fall. 
It is a traditional migration and a 
true heritage of all New England- 
ers,” state Registrar of Motor Ve- 
hicles Rudolph F. King and Chief 
of Police Charles J. Harrold of 
Winchester in a joint release issued 
today. 

“But, the period also presents 
problems of serious concern to the 
accident prevention agencies of the 
commonwealth and every one of its 
communities. It is a time of special 
hazards created by Mother Nature 
herself in the form of changing 
weather conditions, fallen leaves, 
and early darkness," say these of- 
ficials. 

“The danger of wet, fallen leaves 
creates a hazard from skidding and 
hours of early darkness add to the 
perils which threaten the safety 
of children who use play areas in 
or adjacent to highways. 

“Accidents to children can be 
prevented. Motorists must be alert 
for the pile of leaves along the side 
of the load. In the past, several 
children have been killed while 
playing in this manner; and the 
danger of large paper cartons, 
which years ago proved to be death 
traps for two tiny tots who were 
at play inside them must not be 
overlooked by motorists. 

“Parents must assume their full 
share of responsibility in protec- 
tion of their children, never relax- 
ing for a moment the vigilance so 
necessary for the preservation of 
our future citizens. With parents, 
motorists, and accident prevention 
authorities co-ordinating their ef- 
forts, Massachusetts highways can 
be kept a source of pleasure and 
convenience for all who have the 
undeniable right to enjoy their use 
in safety,” stated both Registrar 
King and Chief Harrold in conclu- 
sion. 


WINCHESTER HOMEFRONTERS 


AN APPEAL 


Editor of the Star: 

We are attaching to this letter a 
mimeographed letter from Edward 


URGES GOOD FAITH 
IN REFERENDUM CAMPAIGN 


Editor of the Star: 

Before the referendum campaign 
gets underway I should like in the 
most serious words of which I am 
capable to urge that the good faith 
and honesty of purpose of both 
sides should he recognized. 

It is a sad commentary upon our 
times that any such urging should 
he necessary; and yet this seems to 
be the case. 

I think that everyone present at 
the town meeting last Thursday 
night was deeply distressed by the 
fact that one of our most selfless 
and respected citizens felt called 
upon to defend himself against 
rumors of personal motivation 
in his advocacy of the present 
grade crossing project. It has 
been the constructive service of 
just such men as he which has 
brought Winchester to the position 
of high regard in which, until now 
at least, it has been held by all 
those who have known it. How 
long, however, may we expect men 
of integrity and ability to devote 
long hours to unpaid public service 
when their reward is to he accused 
of a “pay-off”? 

May God forgive us. if by such 
irresponsible tactics as these we 
contribute to the downfall of local 
self government in Winchester.

Junior High pupils followed their 
schedule from class to class last 
Monday evening. For many it was 
the first visit to the school and an 
awaited opportunity to meet the

regarding the methods of teaching 
and aims of the various subjects 
taught in the seventh and eighth 
grades. 

Many thanks to all the Room 
Mothers who made our name cards 
and collected the voluntary dues 
which were generously given.

morning, the first being rung at 
1 :37 o’clock from Box 64 at the 
corner of Highland avenue and! 
Wilson street. 

The second alarm at 1 :45 was 
sounded from Box 34 at Cross and 
Holton streets, and the third, at 
1 :50, from Box 51 at the corner 
of Cambridge and Pond streets. 

Since all apparatus goes out on ; 
box alarms the pulling of the boxes 
was expensive as well as danger- 
ous. The epidemic of false alarms 
was not confined to Winchester, 
others being rung the same morn- 
ing both in Woburn and Reading. 

Authorities of the three commu- 
nities are investigating and it goes 
without saying that they would 
like to get their bunds on the guilty 
parties. 


The Fall Parade of Quartets to 
be held by the Reading Chapter of 
Barhershoppers at Shepardson Hall 
of the junior high school on No- 
vember 7, at 8:15 p. m., will feature 
The Pacemakers Quartet from 
Schenectady, N. Y. They are noted 
for their smooth harmony in ren- 
dering the old-time barbershop 
songs. 

For more barbershop pleasure 
the program will include The Four 
Harpooners from New Bedford, 
1952 international semi-jina lists; 
The Four Rascals, Salem, who 
range in age from 9 to 13 years 
and sing four-part harmony to per- 
fection; The Needhamaires, a com- 
edy quartet from Needham. In ad- 
dition there will be The Windjam- 
mers and the Bay Shore Four from 
Lynn. 

The Reading Barbershop Chorus 
and Quartets will also participate 
in the affair.

That the living of pure Christianity re- 
quires the individual to overcome all that 
ia unjust and impure will be brought out 
at Christinn Science services Sundny. 

The Lesson-Sermon is entitled “Everlast- 
ing Punishment." The Bible passages in- 
clude the following verses from Proverbs: 
“My son. despise nut the chastening of 
the Lord, neither be weary of his correc- 
tion : For whom the Lord loveth he cor- 
recteth; even as n father the son in whom 
he delightcth" (3:11,12). 

Among the passages to bo read from 
“Science and Health with Key to the 
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy will be: 
“Do you ask wisdom to be merciful nnd 
not to punish sin 7 Then ‘ye ntik amiss’ 
Without punishment, sin would multiply 
< 10:31-1 ). 

The Golden Text is from James: 

“Draw nigh to God. nnd he will draw 
nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sin- 
ners ; and purify your hearts, ye double 
minded" (4:8).

On lawns, in woodlands, along 
highway edges from Vermont to 
Georgia and west to the Missis- 
sippi, billions of tiny wormlike 
creatures late this summer tumbled 
to the ground from the tips of 
twigs where they were hatched. 

Each gray larva, no more than 
one-twentieth of an inch long, has 
buried itself in the soil. Some are 
only a foot below the surface. 
Others may be still digging and 
will go down to ten or even twenty 
feet. 

When each feels that it is deep 
enough to he safe from the frost, 
it will hollow out a little cave — 
perhaps a quarter of an inch across 
— next to the root of a tree. The 
cave will be its home, says the 
National Geographic Society, and 
the root will he its storehouse, for 
the juice of tree roots is the pap 
of baby cicadas or “17 - year 
locusts.” 

The larva will grow; it may even 
move to another root, and it will 
shed its skin several times before 
next it sees the light of day — on 
a soft May morning in 1970! 

Suspended Drama 

Thus, with the new generation of 
Brood Ten — the Great Brood — of 
periodic cicadas put to bed, one of 
Nature’s longest and strangest 
dramas of the insect world rings 
down the curtain. There will be 
revivals, as there have been from 
time immemorial, but there are 
never more than six revivals in a 
century. 

The 1953 appearance of the 
locusts, hatched from eggs laid in 
1936, came off as scheduled. Last 
May, stirred by some mysterious 
signal, as many as 30,000 cicada 
nymphs emerged from the ground 
in one night under a single large 
oak tree. Stealthily, they moved 
to the nearest bush or tree and 
started to climb. Some reached the 
high limbs but many more got only 
part way up when the heed for one 
last shedding of the skin seized 
them. 

Clinging to the bark with their 
lobsterlike claws, the immature 
cicadas pulsed rhythmically. The 
old skins soon split down the hack 
and out crawled the full grown 17- 
year locusts. By morning, the 
creamy-white creatures had turned 
darw. Their eyes were red as fire 
Their micalike wings — with the 
characteristic black W at the base 
which the superstitious say fore- 
tells war — were dry and ready for 
flight. 

Sound of Drums 

The abdominal drums sported by 
the males were ready to begin their 
tireless sounding of four quite dis- 
tinct notes — the prolonged burr, 
the “Pha-u-a-roah” which remind- 
ed the Pilgrim Fathers of the 
locust plagues of Egypt, the low 
continuous purr, and the loud 
squawk of surprise or fright. 

And presently, after a brief sea- 
son of clumsy flying and frolic, the 
silent females were ready to lay 
their 400 to 600 eggs. With single- 
minded purpose, they sought out 
the tender limb tips of their favor- 
ite trees — oak, hickory, apple and 
peach. With their sharp, two- 
edged ovipositors they made a 
series of gashes in the twigs and 
laid ten to twenty white eggs in 
each small gash. Exhausted from 
their labors, they fell to the ground 
or water, food for birds and squir- 
rels or fish. 

Now, at summer’s end, the eggs 
laid last May and June have hatch- 
ed. Earth itself will shelter and 
nourish the young while a gener- 
ation of men moves and passes 
above them. And when Spring 
comes in 1970, there will be for the 
Great Brood of periodic cicadas a 
not inglorious resurrection. 


CASTERETS RESCUE WAS 
RELIEF TO ’’CAVE MEN” 


Speleologists evevywnere breath- 
ed sighs of relief this summer when 
Norhert Casteret, after anxious 
hours, was brought safely out of 
the earth s deepest known cave, the 
2,395-foot. I.cpineux cavern near 
Pierre St. Martin in the western 
Pyrenees on the Franco-Spanish 
border. 

M. Casteret is a French speleol- ! 
ogist — cave explorer and expert 
— well known in this country 
through translations of his hooks, 
and for illustrated articles publish- 
ed in the National Geographic So- 
ciety. 

The first National Geographic 
Magazine story by M. Casteret, 
printed in August, 1924, announced 
the finding, near the French village 
of Montespan in the central Pyre- 
nees, of the world’s oldest statues. 
Clay figures of long extinct 
animals, they were molded by Cro- 
Magnon men and had lain hidden 
for at least 20,000 years in a pitch 
black cave M. Casteret reached 
only by diving at great risk 
through a flooded tunnel. 

Another article appeared in 
March, 1953, and described the 
awesome ice caves of the Pyrenees, 
galleries filled with glacier ice that 
may have been formed in the dawn 
of time. Nino thousand feet up in 
the mountains, “Casteret Grotto” 
and others the explorer found near 
it are the highest known ice caves. 

Speleology has long been a rec- 
ognized science. In addition to es- 
tablishing purely sporting records, 
speleologists have done valuable 
work in geology, anthropology, 
biology and geography. They have 
aided hydroelectric engineers and 
influenced international relations. 

Found Garonne Source 

When Spain planned to divert a 
subterranean river into an electric 
generating plant, these daring men 
explored underground to prove 
their theory that the stream was 
the source of the important Ga- 
ronne River in France. Diversion 
might have curtailed the Garonne’s 
flow and affected the whole econ- 
omy of its valley. 

In Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, 
and Carlsbad Caverns, New Mex- 
ico, the United States has respec- 
tively the largest and second lar- 
gest caves thus far discovered. 
Like most big caves everywhere, 
they were formed by the dissolv- 
ing action of slightiy acid water 
upon limestone. 

In the United States, cave hobby- 
ists call themselves “spelunkers.” 
No claustrophohes need apply for 
membership in their societies, for 
a true spelunker thinks little of 
crawling long distances through 
passages so narrow that movement 
is only possible while the crawler’s 
breath is exhaled. 

For icy calm in such a passage, 
M. Casteret furnished the classic 
example. Ho had a head-on en- 
counter with an irate badger, a 
creature with dangerous teeth and 
claws. Avoiding the panic that 
might have tightened his muscles 
and wedged him in the tunnel, the 
speleologist coolly hacked out as 
fast as he could, leaving the badger 
in full charge of the passage. 


AUSTRALIA MEASURES ITS 
WORMS IN FEET AND POUNDS 

In Australia, where odd Leasts 
are the rule rather than the excep- 
tion, even the lowly earthworm is 
unique. 

Of the world s 1,800 species of j 
worms, the Australian Mcgasro - 1 
lidos holds clear title as the world’s 
largest, says the National Geogra- 
phic Society. The giant crawlers 
average four to six feet long and 
occasionally span 1 1 feet. Some 
are an inch thick nnd weigh a 
pound or more. 

Originally believed to exist only 
in Victoria’s fertile Bass Valley, 
the creatures have also been un- 
covered recently in several sections 
of Queensland. Naturalists ex- 
cavated them from tunnels large 
enough to house snakes and lizards. 

Loud gurgles and weird bubbling 
sounds beneath the ground first at- 
tracted the scientists. The groans 
are caused, they later discovered, 
by contractions of the worm’s body 
as it burrows into the soil. 

Pulled from its hole, the crawler 
is apt to break into numerous seg- 
ments. But once unraveled to full 
length above ground, its tough, 
elastic skin is difficult to cut with 
a knife. A muscular, bulbous head 
used in locomotion nnd digging is 
slightly fuller than the rest of the 
body. 

When captured, the giant worm 
sprays jets of fluid like a leaky 
hose. Secreted from dorsal pores, 
the coelomic liquid is normally 
used to lubricate the burrows for 
easier passage. It also serves as 
a defense against soil bacteria and 
parasites. 

Its cocoon or egg capsule, 
measuring up to an inch and a half 
in length, is glossy, sausage- 
shaped, and olive brown in color. 
Newly hatched worms are a mere 
six inches long. 

The giant worms are a favorite 
food of the duck-hilled platypus, 
another member of Australia’s 
cross-word puzzle menagerie. The 
platypus gulps down a half-dozen 
Megaseolides at a sitting. 

To make life at New York’s 
Bronx Zoo worth while for three 
platypuses brought from Australia 
in 1947, the zoo staff developed the 
world’s bigpest earthworm-breed- 
ing farm in the cellar of the lion 
house. 

Proposals to import the Austra- 
lian earthworm to America to help 
fertilize farmlands have been 
vetoed by United States author- 
ities. They fear the giant may 
carry plant diseases inside its body.

health for a year, but his passing 
bail not been expected, he having 
been out about his place on the 
Saturday preceding his death. 

Mr. Hall was the son of David 
B., and Celia (Healey) Hall. He 
was born September 4, 1870, in 
Candia, N. II., and spent his early 
life there, coming to Belmont in 
his late teens and working there 
for four years as a coachman. 

Fifty-one years ago Mr. Hall en-

which was taken abroad on the 
boat. 

Following the deatli of Mr. and 
Mrs. Moseley, Mr. Hall became 
chnufTcur for their daughter, Mrs. 
Cutler B. Downer of Everett ave- 
nue, remaining in her employ until 
he retired about a year ago. Wide- 
ly known through his years in Win- 
chester and the nature of his em- 
ployment, Mr. Hall was held in 
esteem by all who knew him. He 
was a member of Arlington Lodge 
of Odd Fellows and of the First 
Congregational Church. 

On September 20, 1910, Mr. Hall

HIGH SCHOOL OCTETTE 
AT MEN'S CLUB 


GUSTAVSON - AMBROSE 


At Trinity Baptist Church in Arl- 
ington on Saturday afternoon, Oc- 
tober 24, Miss Shirley Moulton Am- 
brose, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 
Leon E. Ambrose of 49 School 
street, Arlington, became the bride 
of Arvid Holden Gustnvson, Jr., son 
of Mr. and Mrs. Arvid Holden Gus- 
tnvson of 74 Salisbury street. The 
ceremony was performed by the 
Rev. Lewis Willinmson, and wns 
followed by a reception at the Bel- 
mont Women’s Club. 

Given in marriage by her father, 
Miss Ambrose was attended by 
Miss Elaine Gustnvson of Winches- 
ter, sister of the bridegroom. Ralph 
Gnmmel of Arlington was best man 
for Mr. Gustnvson, and ushering 
were Frederick Curtice of Boston, 
brother-in-law of the bride; and 
Roy Olson of Arlington. 

The bride wore a chapel length 
gown of Chantilly lace and white 
tulle with a fingertip-length veil of 
illusion caught to a cap of Chan- 
tilly lace and seed pearls. Her cas- 
cade bouquet combined white chry- 
santhemums and stephanotis with 
English ivy. 

The honor maid wore a dress of 
old rose satin with a bustle back 
and a matching old rose satin cap. 
Her cascade bouquet was of vari- 
colored pink pompons. 

Mrs. Ambrose, mother of the 
bride, was gowned in Alice blue 
Chantilly lace and wore navy ac- 
cessories and a corsage of yellow 
roses. The bridegroom’s mother, 
Mrs. Gustavson, wore old rose 
Chantilly lace. Her accessories 
matched her gown and she wore a 
corsage of pink roses. 

After a wedding journey through

WINCHESTER WELLESLEY CLUB 


The annual fall supper meeting 
of the Winchester Wellesley Club 
was held at the home of Mrs. Roger 
Burton, 30 Oxford street, on Wed- 
nesday, October 21st. Mrs. Ross 
Cunningham was Chairman of the 
supper committee, 

Mrs. Wayne Davis, President of 
the Club, presided at a business 
meeting following tho supper. Mrs. 
Burton reported on the Wellesley 
College Development Fund and 
said that the percentage of alum- 
nae contributing to it from the 
Winchester area ranked with the 
highest from other sections of the 
country. 

Miss Ruby Willis, Treasurer of 
the Wellesley College Student’s 
Aid Society, was a guest of the 
Club, and gave a most interesting, 
informal talk on the function of 
this organization. She sketched 
briefly the historical background of 
the Society which originated in 
1878 and was incorporated in 1916, 
as a channel for alumnae giving. 
She emphasized that Student’s Aid 
is intended to supplement scholar- 
ships, not replace them, and told of 
various ways in which this is done. 
Not only are outright gifts of 
money made, but also loans, re- 
payable two years after the stu- 
dent graduates. In addition Stu- 
dent’s Aid operates a Clothes 
Closet where students may obtain 
clothing, as well as textbooks, bed 
linen and other necessary supplies. 
In closing, Miss Willis said that 
the Winchester Wellesley Club 
could well be proud of its long 
history of generous support of 
Student’s Aid.

TOWN MEETING 
SUPPORTS SELECTMEN 

(Continued from Page 1) 

At the March meeting of 1952 the 
town voted to approve the Select- 
men s proposal to eliminate the 
Grade Crossing by raising the 
tracks and empowered the Select- 
men to cooperate to this end with 
State and County officials. A ref- 
erendum failed to set aside this 
limited town meeting vote, and the j 
Selectmen then petitioned the State 
Department of Public Works to, 
eliminate the crossing by raising 
the tracks, studios were begun and 
the firm of Thomas Worcester re- 
tained. 

Mr. Greer snid that the basic en- 
gineering for the project is com- 
plete, though many details of de- 
sign are unfinished, and last minute 
changes on the job will of necessity 
ho made. Adding that the present 
plan is not perfect, he maintained 
it represents the best efforts of i 
many engineers in the Department 
of Public Works and the Worcester t 
Company. 

After his historical review Mr. 
wWr devoted much time to an ex- 
planation of the slides showing 
present conditions and proposed 
changes, notably at Wcdgemcre, at 
the center crossing and at Swnnton 
street. The meeting recessed after | 
he concluded. 

Mr. Volpe, State Commissioner 
of Public Works, congratulated Mr. 
Greer upon his presentation and ex- 
planation of the elimination plan. 
Originally among the doubters and 
Those who believe a better plan can 
l)e found, Mr. Volpe said a review 
of past and present plans for elim- 
ination has convinced him tho 
present plan, calling for raising the 
tracks, is sound. 

He did feel, he said, that the plan 
as first presented was only about 
two-thirds complete since it omit- 
ted a solution to the through traffic 
problem on Route 38. 

The traffic by- pass through the 
Skillings estate is the answer to 
this omission in the original plan, 
and this by-pass should, he said, be 
completed at the same time, or, if 
possible, before the raising of the 
tracks. 

Mr. Volpe said the entire project 
entails a minimum of displacement 
of houses and families which is rare 
in projects of such magnitude. He 
also briefly explained the procedure 
by which the State Right of Way 
Division will take the land needed 
for the project. The final result, 
Mr. Volpe said, will he an asset to 
tho town, both from the point of 
view of beauty as well as safety. 

Chairman George Redding of the 
Finance Committee stated that the 
Committee feels the Selectmen 
have done a wonderful job of nego- 
tiating for the elimination project, 
and that $190,000 can safely he 
taken from the Excess and Defi- 
ciency Account without jeopardiz- 
ing the financing of the needed 
school buildings. 

Mr. Hewis asked under what sec- 
tions of Statue law the funds for 
this project will be taken. Mr. 
John McCluskey of the D. P. W. 
was introduced to answer him, but 
asked Commissioner Volpe to reply. 
Mr. Volpe said that the funds will 
he bond issue funds authorized by 
1952 legislation which provided 
200 million dollars for highway 
projects in the state. 

Mr. Wakefield decried the Star’s 
lack of publicity which should have 
been provided so that the average 
voter could have had time to assi- 
milate this tremendous project. He 
reviewed the cost of forthcoming 
school building projects and said 
that, in his opinion, it was unfor- 
tunate that the grade crossing pro- 
ject should he brought in before the 
town’s No. 1 problem, that of new 
schools, has been solved. 

He asked why the Boston and 
Maine has not been asked to re- 
move its freight-switching oper- 
ations from the center, thus great- 


ly reducing the time during which 
the gates have to be down, and said 
he believed the voters are entitled 
to the opportunity of voting on a 
complete alternate plan for cross- 
ing elimination as well as the one 
presently submitted by the Select- 
men. 

“It is shamefully unfair” he said, 
“for the State of Massachusetts 
to presume thnt it has 6 to 10 mil- 
lion dollars to spend on a purely 
local project,” and he asked the 
members to reject “this Trojan 
horse that is being dragged into 
the square.” Mr. Wakefield’s mo- 
tion to postpone any action on the 
grade crossing until the projects 
for needed school buildings are 
completely financed, was voted 
down by the meeting. 

Mrs. McDonald next took the 
microphone (a procedure rare for 
her!) to ask if that motion, just de- 
feated could he added to the refer- 
endum if the ayes and noes were 
not recorded. Town Council Clarke 
answered that in any event Mr. 
Wakefield’s motion could not he in- 
cluded in the referendum vote. 

Mr. Hewis noted that the propos- 
ed street changes have not been ac- 
cepted by the Planning Board, ns 
required by law; and he moved that 
the subject matter of Article 1 he 
referred to the Planning Board and 
acted on by them. Admiral Burac- 
kcr, former Commissioner of Public 
Works, rose to say that the town 
will never again have an oppor- 
tunity such as this to get this pro- 
ject done. Mr. Hewis’ vote was 
defeated. 

Mrs. Woodside asked the Finance 
Committee how the town can fin- 
ance the school program at the 
same time it spends this $190,000, 
hut Mr. Redding considered that 
the question wns irrelevant to tho 
main discussion, noting that he be- 
lieved both were within the town’s 
means. 

Former County Commissioner 
James Cullen expressed his hope 
that the town meeting members 
would make the vote in favor of the 
project as near 100% as possible. 

Mrs. McDonald, in reviewing 
past votes on the grade crossing 
elimination project, said that, al- 
though the 1952 town meeting had 
voted 151 to 1 in favor of raising 
the tracks, the referendum had 
found 1,700 voters, or 34 per cent of 
the votes east, in opposition. The 
proposed overhead railroad, she 
said, will ruin the old plains section 
of the town, nnd went into some de- 
tail in explaining the harm which 
changes to Swanton street will 
cause to the residents of that area. 
Her request to the Moderator to 
permit the people in the hall who 
were opposed to the project to 
stand was courteously denied. Mrs. 
McDonald asked Mr. Greer why the 
sum of $190,000 is being taken 
from Excess and Deficiency, rather

Mr. Hood has been a member of 
the Board of Directors since 1948 
and has been Vice-President since 
1949. He has been closely connect- 
ed with the building program and 
all activities since he became a Dir- 
ector. In accepting his election he 
stated that with the recent comple- 
tion of the building program a new 
era opens in the life and activities 
of the Hospital and that expanding 
opportunities lie ahead for greater 
service to the people of Winchester 
and surrounding communities. He 
expressed confidence that with the 
continued cooperation of the many 
men and women now connected 
with its work and of its countless 
other friends, the hospital will rise 
to new heights of service and will 
become an ever increasing factor in 
administering to the health require- 
ments of the residents of Winches- 
ter and its neighboring towns.

than being raised by a bond issue. 
He replied that the Excess nnd De- 
ficiency Account has been built up 
in recent years, partly with the 
grade crossing elimination in mind. 

Mrs. Woodside said that the town 
fathers are suffering from “dollar 
delirium”, that never once do they 
mention the human equation in this 
matter. She stated that the D. P. 
W. would have given the town any 
plan that the people wanted and 
added that at a hearing before the 
legislative committee last year the 
Selectmen promised that an alter- 
nate plan and a statement of costs 
! would be presented to the town. 

Mr. Bonnell, of the Planning 
! Board expressed his indignation at 
the reflections east upon town 
boards and the implication thnt 
they are not acting in the interest 
of the citizens as they see it. He 
stated that the D. P. W. did make 
a study of alternate plans, includ- 
ing an automobile overpass nnd 
noted in this connection that the 
traffic circles would have required 
an unreasonable amount of land- 
taking. He asked if it were not 
significant that every Board of Se- 
lectmen, many of whom were doubt- 
ful in the beginning, came to sup- 
port the overhead tracks plan 
unanimously. 

Mrs. Warren Whitman asked 
why the auto by-pass could not be 
elevated, and nut in without raising 
the tracks to sec if it alo^o will 
sufficiently aid the traffic jam in 
the center. Mr. Greer replied that 
raising the overpass would entail 
an excessive rate of grade on the 
Blind Bridge end of the overpass. 

Replying to Mrs. Whitman’s 
question regarding the danger to 
pedestrians at the proposed traffic 
circle between the Town Hall and 
the Baptist Church, Mr. Greer stat- 
ed that traffic lights would be in- 
stalled there if they proved neces- 
sary. Provisions are also being 
made for the installation of lights 
in the center, should they be need- 
ed there. 

Mr. Volpe stated that the Win- 
chester grade crossing elimination 
has been placed number 2 on the 
list, second to Lincoln Square in 
Worcester. 

Mr. Hewis questioned the word- 
ing of the motion of the article, 
asking why it should read “Board 
of Selectmen or the Chairman.” 
Town Counsel Clarke replied that 
he was only complying with the 
law in the wording of the motion. 

Following the re-reading of the 
motion at the request of Mrs. 
Woodside a standing vote of the 
town meeting was taken. At its 
conclusion, Mr. Earl Smith rose to 
say that though he was among the 
opposition on the issue of raising 
the tracks, he wanted it made clear 
that no one questioned the honesty 
and sincerity of Mr. Bonnell’s ac- 
tions in supporting the project. 


AT THE 

"PARISIAN MARKET PLACE" 


Louise Cullen has become n fa- 
miliar figure to those who pass her 
way, Her cheerful smile has bright- 
ened the day foi many, and the 
neighborhood children time and 
again come to look for the pretty 
lady who paints by hor window. 

Little do these folks realize the 
painful ordeal Louise faces daily 
as she arises from her bed to make 
her way to her work table, for she 
has been fighting for twenty-four 
years a courageous battle against 
that insidious disease, rheumatoid 
arthritis. 

With indomitable spirit and 
persistence, Louise graduated from 
the Malden High School with hon- 
or, without ever having set foot 
inside the school. She is a talented 
writer, and has had three of her 
stories published. Unselfishly and 
at times enduring considerable 
pain, she did her utmost for the 
Red Cross, as long as she was able, 
working in the office and assisting 
at the Bedford Hospital. 

Louise had hoped to attend class- 
es at the Vesper George School of 
Art, where her drawings had been 
accepted. However, with tho en- 
couragement of ner doctors and 
the inspiration of Marguerite Pear- 
son, prominent Rockport artist, 
Louise has continued to paint at 
home. Although she can no longer 
work on large oil paintings or 
portraits, her skill comes into play 
in turning out beautiful brooches^ 

More recently, in fact, during thr 
past months, Louise has painted 
over four hundred exceedingly ex- 
quisite Nativity figurines for "The 
Parisian Market Place,” the annual 
bazaar of the First Congregational 
Church, taking place on Novombor 
4. The delicate and patient hand- 
ling of her brush and her outstand- 
ing sense of color values are ap- 
parent in the garments nnd faces 
of the Three Wise Men, and her 
innate tenderness, gentle spirit and 
| religious devotion arc subtly ex- 
pressed in Mary, Joseph and the 
Christ Child. 

Of this work, Louise comments, 
“It was a very gratifying pastime.” 

And though Louise paints with 
but the use of two fingers of hor 
right hand, she is hopeful that her 
work may provide a means of as- 
sistance to her widowed mother, 
whose untiring care and loving de- 
votion have enabled Louise to car- 
ry on these manv years.

TROOP 6 IN HIGH GEAR 


MYSTIC SCHOOL STAFF 
ENTERTAINED 

The Mystic School staff and Mrs. 
Lorraine Forte were the guests on 
Friday evening, October 23rd, of 
Miss Lydia Whittemore, Mystic 
third-grade teacher, at her home 
in Melrose. 

Mrs. Margaret McLean, sixth- 
grade teacher at Mystic, showed 
over 100 slides of beautiful pictures 
which she took this past summer 
while on a 10,000-mile motor trip 
through the West with her family. 
Those who had taken a similar trip 
in the past welcomed many familiar 
views with enthusiasm. The rest of 
the guests live in hopes of seeing 
the real thing some day. 

Later everyone enjoyed a most 
delicious buffet supper, with Mrs. 
Forte pouring. The menu consisted 
of welsh rarebit, deviled eggs, po- 
tato chips, pickles, coffee and home- 
made apple pie a la mode. This 
was the second social activity en- 
joyed this fall by the Mystic School 
personnel. 


FOLK MUSIC EVENING 


The Children’s Own School will 
present an evening of Folk Music 
on Friday, November 20, at eight 
o’clock in Masonic Hall. The affair 
is for the benefit of the School’s 
Building Fund. Mrs. Leonard 
Wolsky, of Woburn, who accom- 
panies herself on the zither, will 
sing English, Irish and American 
folk songs, as well as a few repre- 
sentative selections in French, 
Italian and German. Many of the 
songs are interesting, not only for 
their charming music, but because 
they have a historical or socio- 
logical background, and the fre- 
quent humor and warmth present 
in most folk music lends the pro- 
gram a pleasant feeling of infor- 
mality. Mrs. Wolsky has appeared 
on television and radio, as well as 
before various clubs and women’s 
organizations. 

Refreshments will he served at 
the close of the evening.

DR. WHEELER TO BE 
ASSOCIATED WITH DR. MUELLER 


COLLISION IN NORTH END 


Announcement is being made 
this week of the association of Dr. 
Harold J. Wheeler with Dr. Harry 
L. Mueller in the practice of pedia- 
trics at 31 Church street. Dr. 
Wheeler, a graduate of Boston Uni- 
versity School of Medicine in 1947, 
received his specialized training in 
pediatrics at the Colorado Univer- 
sity Medical Center and The Chil- 
dren’s Hospital of Denver, and, like 
Dr. Mueller, plans to give a portion 
of his time to the Children’s Hos- 
pital in Boston for clinic work. 

lie comes to Winchester from j 
Boise, Idaho, where he served 2 
years as a pediatrician in the Air 
Force. He and his wife, the former 
Priscilla E. Howard of Winchester, 
and three children are residing at 
280 Highland avenue. 


Sunday morning shortly after : 
9:30 a Ford sedan driven by Mrs. 
Frances M. Sellito of 17 Linden 
street, while headed south on Syl- 
vester avenue at the intersection of ! 
Canal and Middlesex streets, was 
in collision with a Chevrolet sedan, 
driven by Mrs. Cora Hcssion of 19 
Lochwan street and turning left 
into Middlesex street after pro- 4 
ceeding west on Canal street. 

Both machines were damaged, 
the Ford having to he towed away. 
No injuries were reported. 


Winchester Boy Scout Troop 6 is 
now in High Gear — Regular Mon- 
day night meetings were commend- 
ed at the Unitarian Church Hall in 
I September and since then things 
have been rapidly gaining momen- 
I turn. 

With 43 boys registered in all, 
there arc now many new scouts in 
the troop. 

Scout Master Mr. Emmons S. 
Ellis of 14 Hillside avenue and 
his able Assistant Mr. “Bob” Fla- 
herty of 469 Main street have been 
very busy getting the new Patrols 
organized along with the many 
other regular scout “activities”. 

One Saturday over 20 of the 
boys, mostly tenderfeet, took a 10 
mile hike through the woods to the 
Sheepfold and there cooked their 
noon-day meal, plenty of hot ham- 
burgers, franks, fried potatoes, 
beans, etc., were the order of the 
day. This was taken on a beautiful 
sunny day, the mounted trooper 
was encountered along the ‘trail’ 
and gave the boys some helpful 
directions. Mr. Bill Macdonald of 
42 Canterbury road, father of one 
of the newest members went along 
and reported that he was perhaps 
a little more tuckered-out than 
some of the youngsters. A map 
reading session and games were 
enjoyed at intervals. 

Another week-end Boh Flaherty 
took some of the Patrol Leaders in- 
to the woods on a short canoe and 
over-night camping trip to acquaint 
them with some of the essentials in 
wood-craft, etc., so that they might 
be better able to impart to the 
younger members this valuable in- 
formation. As the hoys progress 
in knowledge and years it is hoped 
that eventually all of them will 
have enjoyed a few of these canoe 
excursions. 

Just recently about 20 of the 
scouts went to Camp Ted, Wal- 
tham, with Scout Master Ellis, tak- 
ing along full regalia for an over- 
night Camp Out, cooking uten- 
sils, food, bedding, tents, etc., were 
all packed to the site and the hoys 
settled down for a real experience. 
There were no mishaps. The gen- 
eral conduct was reported as good. 

The Troop has been organized 
into Patrols, with such names as, 
Flying Eagle, Snake, Hawk, Rang- 
er, Pioneer. 

This past week, a meeting of the 
Scout Parents was called and a new 
slate of officers was elected for the 
coming year. 

Mr. William McLeod (Bill) Mac- 
donald as Chairman. 

Mr. Leslie W. Doten of 52 Lo- 
rena road as Treasurer. 

Mr. Ralph H. Pingree of 50 Al- 
ben road as Secretary. 

At the meeting of the Committee 
Mr. Bill Hopkins, retiring Chair- 
man; Allan Adams, retiring Treas- 
urer assisted nobly in the installa- 
tion of the new men and offered 
their good advices for and during 
the ensuing year. 

Mr. Darrel A. Root of 14 Win- 
throp street, volunteered to attend 
the Regional Council Meeting and 
report hack to the Troop as to what 
is going on in Scout Headquarters. | 

Mr. John E. Hart of 6 Priscilla 
lane will work with “Les” Doten 
during the next month, in connec- 
tion with the regular Troop Meet- 
ings. 

Mr. Charles Gauthier of Lloyd 
street and Mr. Charles Cunha of 14 
Clearwater road, have been ap- 
pointed to the Publicity Commit- 
tee. 

Mr. Salvatore Scalesse of 37 Al- 
len road, Mr. George A. Niles of 11 
Madison avenue west, and Mr. 
Addison J. Becker of 10 Perkins 
road, are current members of the 


Father’s Committee and plan to 
take an active interest. 

All of this should add up to a 
fine year of Scouting and lias al- 
ready generated a keen interest 
among the hoys. 

The hoys in the Troop and their 
parents would like to take this 
opportunity to express to Mr. Rob- 
ert Storer, minister, and the mem- 
bers of the Unitarian Church, their 
sincere appreciation for use of 
the facilities, kindly extended to 
the Troop year after year.

GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES 
AND BRIEFS 


Only one person was injured 
when a Mack truck and three auto- 
mobiles were involved in a colli- 
sion at the intersection of Lake and 
Main streets last Saturday morn- 
ing. 

According to police the truck 
owned by C. E. Hall & Sons of 
Somerville and being driven south 
on Main street by Nicholas Barras- 
so of 477 Meridian street, East 
Boston, was in collision to the 
north of Lake street with a Ply- 
mouth sedan owned and being driv- 
en north on Main street by Charles 
O \ eil of 23rd street, Woburn. 

The impact of the collision drove 
the Plymouth into an Oldsmobile 
sedan owned by Paul Carroll of 
120 Appleton street, Cambridge, 
which was parked at the easterly 
curb of Main street facing north. 

After colliding with the Ply- 
mouth the truck swerved sharply 
to the left, striking the rear left 
side and trunk of another Plymouth 
sedan, owned by Thaddeus Max- 
well, Jr., of 101 Grove street, Read- 
ing, which was parked behind the 
Olds. 

Continuing across the easterly 
sidewalk of Main street, the truck 
crashed into and broke down a 
wooden fence on the property of 
Florence DeCelles, 723 Main street, 
and finally came to a stop with its 
body across the sidewalk and its 
front end suspended on a stone wall 
on the DeCelles property. 

Only O’Neil was injured in the 
collision and he was not badly hurt. 
He was taken to the Choate Memo- 
rial Hospital in Woburn and treat- 
ed by Dr. Vincent Dirago, later be- 
ing discharged. All the vehicles in- 
volved in the accident were dam- 
aged. 


A few years before the American 
Revolution a whaling brig of New 
Bedford, Massachusetts, was named 
No Duty On Tea, says the National 
! Geographic Society. 

Grapes almost the size of golf 
halls grow beside the Vaupes River 
in the wilds of Colombia, South 
America.

TIME FOR DECISION 

ELIMINATION OF GRADE CROSSING AND 
CONSTRUCTION OF TRAFFIC BY-PASS 

The Town Meeting of October 22, 1953, voted 1 13 to 23 to transfer $190,000 
from available funds to pay Winchester’s entire share of the cost of the com- 
bined crossing elimination and traffic by-pass. A referendum will be held later 
this month to see whether a majority of our citizens agree with their elected 
representatives on this vital issue. 

The basic plan is not new and lias been approved repeatedly in the past, 
even without the feature of the traffic by-pass. 

A history' of the grade crossing problem, and of the various plans which 
have been put forward since 1831 to solve it. appears in a special report of 
the Selectmen issued in connection with the April 1952 referendum and re- 
printed on page 305 of the most recent (1952) Town Reports. 

The principal events leading up to the present referendum have been as 
follows : 

1. March 191-1 l uaiiinious sense of the meeting vote of the town meeting 
that “the public security and convenience require the abolition of the grade 
crossing at the center; and that the Selectmen are requested to take such steps 
a** in their judgment will provide the speedy adoption of a suitable plan of 
abolition ...” and the unanimous vote appropriating $2,500 for the use of the 
Selectmen in procuring engineering assistance for that purpose. 

2. November 19-15 Public Hearing at which those present voted 436 in 
favor of raising the tracks tin accordance with the recommendation of the Se- 
lectmen's consulting engineer) against a total of eight in favor of either of the 
other principal plans, involving diversionary highways only. 

3. August 1950 Decision of the Department of Public \\ ork*. an- 
nounced hy Commissioner William F. Callahan, to eliminate the \\ inchestcr 
Grade Crossing by raising the tracks. 

1. March 1952 151 to 1 vote of the town meeting members approving the 

State’s plan to raise the tracks and directing the Selectmen to continue their 
negotiations with the Department of Public Works. 

5. April 1952 Referendum of April 1952, upholding town meeting action 
to raise tracks by a vote of 3,120 to 1,724 — almost a 2 to 1 majority. 

0. October 1953 — The same project (plus a traffic by-pass from the inter- 
section of Washington and Mt. Vernon Streets to II 1 i fid Rridge Street and Main 
Street north of the center) approved hy town meeting 1 13 to 23, with total 
cost to W inchestcr only $190,000. 

7. November 1953 — Further referendum to he scheduled. 

No plan until now has been able to gather sufficient support to he realized. 

I In* present plan has had the unanimous support of all of the Hoards of 
Selectmen and Planning Hoards who have dealt with it and the very strong 
approval of all the public hearings and town meetings which have voted on it. 

W e hope that our fellow citizens will \>ork for it now and vote for it at the 
coming referendum m» that Winchester's century-old grade crossing problem 
can finally In- solved.

fore coming to Winchester in 1934. i 
He had a varied career in railroad- 
ing during the more than fifty 
years he spent in the employ of the 
Boston & Maine, an employment 
that commenced when he was 17 
years old. 

lie rose through the ranks from 
fireman to engineer, helper me- 
chanic and trainmaster. For 35 
years he held various executive po- 
sitions of responsibility, being at 
the time of his retirement two

ment of the railroad. 

Among many other railroad or-

ly pleased with prospects as they 
were explained. 

Mr. Greer stated that no project 
for public betterment can he car- 
ried out without hurting some one, 
and lii Board realizes that the pro- 
posed depression of Swanton street 
is going to create a greatly changed 
neighborhood in the Spruce street 
location. 

The Board is, however, concerned 
to change the neighborhood ns lit- 
tle as possible and to do as little 
actual harm as possible to the least 
number of persons. 

He explained that residents of 
the district had been invited to the 
meeting to express any dissatisfac- 
tion they had with the plans as 
they have progressed to date, and 
to make any suggestions that will 
make the project less objectionable 
to them. 

Mr. Barker of the Worcester 
Company was at the hearing and 
answered many questions as well 
as listening to a number of sugges- 
tion- from unhappy residents. Sev- 
eral of the suggestions he felt 
might well be incorporated into the 
plans which are as yet unfinished. 

Mr. Greer assured the residents 
that any further suggestions they 
may care to make to improve the 
layout of Swanton street in their 
opinion may he presented to the 
Board and will receive careful con- 
sideration. 

The meeting lasted for about 
three hours, during which plans 
were studied and general discus- 
sions held. One of those who ex- 
pressed considerable dissatisfac- 
tion with the present plan was Mr. 
Amico, the baker, whose bakery 
would he made far less accessible 
to • evident s. 

The entire Board of Selectmen 
attended the hearing as did Har- 
rison Lyman, former Selectman and 
present secretary of the Planning 
Board. Former Selectmen Nichol- 
as Fitzgerald and Harry Chefalo

Jr. Mr. Hewis felt that the meet- 
ing should have been held before 
the special town meeting on the 
grade crossing ahlition.

DR. VALLEY PROMOTED 


RECENT BIRTHS 


TO REMEMBER FOREVER 


On Armistice Day this year there 
is great cause for thankfulness. 
The shooting is over in Korea, 
prisoners of war, American boys 
held captive in enemy hands, have 
come home at last. Our gratitude 
for their safe return mingles with 
our tears for those who will never 
hear the “cease fire” order. 

Our hearts are full of sympathy 
for mothers, wives nnd children of 
thousands who have expended their 
all for us here at home. We must 
never forget Americans who have 
sacrificed to keep America strong 
and free. It is little enough for us, 
safe and alive, living in the great- 
est country on earth, breathing 
free air, enjoying the privileges of 
freedom, it is little enough for u* 
to keep reminding ourselves of the 
meuning of America to our men 
• and women overseas. Our memorial 
is in our hearts forever.

The Board of Selectmen will 
meet Saturday to set the date for 
the referendum to be held on the 
vote of the recent special town 
meeting, appropriating $190,000 as 
the town’s share of the $6,000,000 
project to eliminate the grade 
crossing by raising the railroad 
tracks through Winchester, and 
authorizing the Selectmen, or 
chairman of the Board, to enter in- 
to definite agreements with the 
State or other interested parties 
to bring about elimination by this 
means. 

Referendum petitions were cir- 
culated immediately following the 
meeting, and the petitions were 
filed with the Board of Selectmen 
last week Thursday. Two hundred 
and fifty names were necessary, 
and the Registrars of Voters 
checked 323 with many more ap- 
pended to the petitions. It is es- 
timated that over 500 voters sign- 
ed the papers. 

Under the law the Selectmen 
must set a date for the referendum 
within 14 days of the meeting at 
which the petition is considered. 
That would mean that the referen- 
dum vote must he held not later 
than Saturday, November 21. There 
has been some feeling that the Sat- 
urday date would he a good time 
since many do not work on Satur- 
day. 

Complicating the date setting is 
the fact that there are two special 
town meetings to he held on No- 
vember 12 and 16, to consider the 
report of the Committee for addi- 
tional facilities for the high and 
junior high schools, and the Park- 
hurst School addition committee.

for the Department of Defense, Dr.

terest because. Dr. Valley is

beating.

the Wyman Mothers’ Association, 
in conjunction with the faculty and 
staff of the school, cordially invites 
all Wyman parents to meet in their 
children’s classrooms at 8 p. m.

display, and, after a short talk by 
the teacher, you will have an oppor- 
tunity to ask any questions you 
may have in your mind.

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6. 1953 


M. I. A. C. FOOTBALL RATINGS 
STARTLE COACHES AND FANS 


Lnat week, without preliminary 
warning or notiro, the Massachu- 
setts Intel scholastic Athletic Coun- 
cil (advisory group of the head- 
masters’ association) published in 
the Boston papers a radical plan 
for the reclassification of the high 
school football teams of eastern 
Massachusetts. While a great 
many interested fans will agree 
that the system of ratings inaugu- 
rated by the Sports Writers and in 
use for several years now, is far 
from perfect, the immediate re- 
action to the new system proposed 
by the M. 1. A. C. has been wide- 
spread nnd all but violent. From 
coaches in many schools affected 
have come expressions of conster- 
nation, of scorn, of ridicule, of dis- 
belief, of bewilderment, of amuse- 
ment, of disgust, of anguish. 

Conches of schools suddenly ele- 
vated from lowly ('lass C ratings 
to Class A prominence shuddered 
at the unwelcome honor and longed 
for the comfortable obscurity of a 
much humbler rating. Of course,

most of the howls of anguish came 
from the coaches whose teams were 
elevated to higher classifications. 
For example, when Stoneham High 
School was promoted from Class C 
to Class A, Tony PeTeso’s shrieks 
could have been heard in South 
Boston. 

After rending all the pros nnd 
cons on the subject, one is tempted 
to wonder whether any classifica- 
tion is necessary or even useful, and 
whether both of the proposed classi- 
fications do not present a false pic- 
ture of the relative ability of the 
teams rated. Unless a Class B 
team, for example, plays all other 
teams in its class (which is ob- 
viously impossible) how can it pos- 
sibly be rated as ('lass B cham- 
pion? Perhaps the result of this 
whole controversy may be the re- 
vival of more football leagues 
among groups of natural rivals.

Not being one of the contestants 
this week it gave me an opportu- 
nity to classify in my way the dif- 
ferent styles of howling. 

Some of the outstanding ones 
are as follows: 

No. 1 The Ballerina 
One who skips, hops and dances 
and lets the ball go and ends up 
on one foot. 

No. 2 The Jacknife 
One who bends at the waist in a 
forty-five degree angle and looks 
at the pins through his eyebrows 
before the ball rolls. 

No. 3 The Stargazer 
One who looks to the heavens 
after the ball is gone looking for 
an answer ns to where the ball 
went. 

No. 4 The Prayer 
One who falls on his knees pray- 
ing for a good hit as the hall goes. 
No. 5 The Rattler 
One who ends up shaking his 
head wondering what happened. 
No. <: The Halfback 
One who stands back at the soda 
fountain and runs as fast as his 
legs can go and darn near kills him- 
self at the rubber stop. 

No. 7 The Creeper 
One who creeps up the runway 
and at the last possible moment 
whips the ball down the alley. 

No.* 8 The Stamper 
One who lets the ball go and 
hopes to get an assist on the pinfall 
by stamping his feet. 

When it’s your turn to sit out 
just enjoy the circus. 

Well it had to come some day, 
the battle between “Ballerina 
Curly Locks Chic’s” team and 
“Prayer Corrigador” and his chil- 
dren. It was a good battle and ex- 
citement was high for the lead 
changed sides many times. But the 
old men did themselves justice for 
they held the kids in a nip and tuck 
battle down to the wire to a 2 and 2 
split. Thanks also is to he given 
to two other men on “Ballerina 
Chic’s” team. One man of God- 
frey humility “Stargazer Mingy” 
and also “Jacknife Joe Tofuri”. 

I also noticed in my travels 
“Creeper Gene Rotundi” still trying 
to keep up with the youngsters. 

In my opinion this year equals 
in enthusiasm and excitement the 
year of the band concert and free

WINCHESTER WRECKS READING 

REGULARS AND SCRUBS 
DISPLAY AGGRESSIVE 
# TEAM WORK 

Tn n one-sided contest, marked 
however by an unusual nuni be i of 
spectacular individual performan- 
ces on both sides, Winchester’s 
steadily improving football ma- 
chine trnmpled over Reading last 
Saturday afternoon at Manchester 
Field by the score of 30 to G. Read- 
ing’s lone touchdown came as the 
result of a dazzling return ^ of a 
kickoff caught on Reading s 10 
yard line by Tom Murray, whose 
speed nnd footwork enabled him to 
race through the entire Winches- 
ter team (second and third-string 
players) for ninety yards to pay- 
dirt. 

Winchester gave the well- filled 
stands an exhibition of striking 
power, alertness, and improved 
line play, combined with n revela- 
tion of depth at every position. 
Against a weaker-than-average 
Reading eleven, Coach Knowlton 
was able to throw fifty-one boys 
into the game and a few of those 
boys who have been warming the 
bench in previous games wasted no 
time in showing that they appre- 
ciated the chance to show their 
wares. 

In spite of the one-sided score, 
the game was far from colorless. 
For Reading, Tom Murray and 
Eddie Stanton gave their support- 
ers more than one or two thrills 
with their ability to penetrate the 
Winchester line on several occa- 
sions and their excellent open-field 
running. Only last-minute tackles 
by the safety man prevented these 
two good ball-carriers from scor- 
ing. And speaking of safety men, 
perhaps in Joe Bellino, Winchester 
has one of the best. Incidentally, 
young Mr. J. Murphy of the scrubs 
came up with two hard tackles to 
prevent Reading ball carriers from 
scoring against the Seconds. 

An incomplete list of the game- 
highlights from the Winchester 
point of view would have to include 
the following: 

J i m m y Haggerty’s brilliant 
bursts through the Reading line on 
delayed cross-bucks for two touch- 
down runs of 35 and 40 yards 
respectively, while only the slippery 
turf and momentary loss of balance 
prevented him from a third, as he 
, penetrated the Reading forward 
I wall to find himself free with no 
one in front of him. 

Mike Murphy’s G5-yard end run 
to the Reading 2 yard line. Like a 
Mack Truck in high gear, Mike 
ploughed through the opposition, 
using a beautiful straight-arm to 
eliminate one would-be tackier and 
dragging another five or ten yards 
before being dragged down. If 
Mike can keep that straight-arm 
working, he’ll continue cluttering 
up opponents’ backfields with frus- 
trated tacklers from now on. 

Joe Bellino’s adroitness in re 
covering a fumbled kick-off in the 
midst of three Reading tacklers 
and eluding their grasp to race 52 
yards for a touchdown. 

McLaughlin’s 33-yard burst 
through tackle for a score after be- 
ing stopped on the same play on 
the previous down. Also his smooth 
handling of a fifteen yard pass 
from Ross and run of 24 yards to 
the end zone. 

The line’s play in opening up 
wide holes for those cross-bucks by 
Haggerty and McLaughlin. On ail 
three touchdown runs not a Read 
ing player laid a hand on the ball 
carrier. 

The recovery of six Reading 
fumbles by alert Winchester play 
ers. And the forcing of ten Read- 
ing fumbles by aggressive line play 
throughout the game. 

Outstanding individual work in 
the line by Jim Cusack. This vet 
eran has played a stellar game all 
season, but in the thick of the 
scrimmage his work is often un- 
noticed. 

Good quarter-hacking by young 
Bill Ross, who showed good judg- 
ment in calling plays, passed with 
precision, and punted well. 

Fine individual plays by J. Mur 
phy, Quill, and Gould. 

Above all, real teamwork by the 
whole squad. 

We are not attempting to imply 
that mistakes were not made or 
that Winchester has suddenly come 
up with a miracle team or a world- 
beater. But there is no question 
that Coach Knowlton and his as- 
sistants have fashioned a rugged 
and steadily improving machine, 
from the first stringers down to the 
last substitute. Remembering that 
Winchester started the season with 
only two regulars from last year’s 
great team, one is impressed with 
the way in which this year’s team 
has developed from week to week. 
And it will get better. Right now 
the question in the minds of the

Between the halves of the game 
Reading’s hand and Drum Major- 
ettes put on a colorful exhibition. 
And Winchester’s band, the best we 
have seen this year or are likely to 
see, entertained with some tricky 
new steps. Ted Bartlett’s con-

all who were able to hear him above 
the noise of the cheering crowd.

Fifth tirade Tea 

A tea was held on Tuesday af- 
ternoon at the home of Mis. Wil- 
liam Morton, 38 Arlington street, 
for Mrs. Ann White, the fifth-grade 
teacher, and Miss Martha V. Cun- 
ningham. 

Mrs. White spoke of the serious- 
ness of problems which face a 
growing child in the world about 
him. She stated that an interest 
in current events is encouraged by 
having the children report on news 
events in the manner of a radio 
reporter. Various arithmetic games 
and the counting of bank and milk 
money give the children a greater 
facility in addition and subtraction. 
The fifth and sixth grades must 
help prepare the pupil for the more 
mature program of junior high 
school. 

Delicious refreshments were 
served by the following committee: 
Mrs. Robert Reynolds, Mrs. Harry 
Wood, Mrs. Arthur Watkins, Mrs. 
Charles Siders, Mrs. James Same, 
Mrs. Robert Gray and Mrs. Joseph 
Dunn. The pourers were Mrs. Ron- 
ald Davis and Mrs. Arthur Schmidt. 

Fourth Grade Tea 

The fourth grade tea was held on 
Thursday afternoon, October 29, 
at the home of Mrs. Malcolm 
Dodge, 5 Seneca road, for Mrs. 
Margaret Donovan and Miss Mar- 
tha V. Cunningham. 

Mrs. Donovan gave the mothers 
a word picture of a typical day’s 
activities of the fourth grader. 

Assorted sandwiches and cakes 
were served by the following com- 
mittee: Mrs. George Farrar, Mrs. 
Bruce Young, Mrs. Joseph Masi, 
Mrs. Cosmo DiSilva, Mrs Merton 
Towle, Mrs. Paul Lamson, Mrs. 
John Stevens and Mrs. Clifford 
Hummel. Mrs. Herman Meissner 
and Mrs. Benjamin Wild were the 
pourers. 

WASHINGTON SCHOOL ASSEMBLY 


The pupils in Mr. Roland Nault’s 
fifth grade class presented their as- 
sembly to the school on October 28. 
Two short plays, based on the ac- 
tivities of the class in reading, 
language, safety, and science, were 
written and acted by the youngsters 
themselves. 

In the first sketch, “The Story 
of Ali Cogia”, the setting was a 
desert land in the Near East. Pupils 
participating in this playlet were: 
Jim Bogue, Linda Parsons, George 
Neville, Jim Cann, John Swift, 
Steven Morrison, Guild Nichols, 
Jerry Ducharme, Richard Keene, 
Richard deRevere, Janet Cussen, 
Janet Keppler, and Bonny Low. 

Hallowe’en was the appropriate 
theme of the second play, written 
by Janet Keppler, George Neville, 
and Jim Bogue. Actors included 
the following: Janet Cussen, Jim 
Bogue, Bonny Low, Gloria Rotondi, 
Jerry Ducharme, Janet Keppler, 
Eric Wittet, Buckie Nichols, Steven 
Morrison, John Swift, Jim Cann, 
George Neville, Richard Keene, 
Guild Nichols, and Richard de- 
Revere. 

Adding much to the enjoyment 
of the assembly program were the 
songs and jingles written by mem- 
bers of the class. The unexpected 
appearance of a horse made up by 
Guild Nichols and Jerry Ducharme 
aroused much humor, as did the 
witches costume worn by Steven 
Mori son. 

At the conclusion of the program. 
Principal Leonor Rich talked to 
the children about the proper ob- 
servance of Hallowe’en.

Commenting on juvenile delin- 
quency in a recent issue of the Bos- 
ton Herald Mail Bag, M. G. Mac- 
Leod of Everett believes that one 
reason young women are killing 
girls and sixteen year old boys are 
lighting to the death with knives 
is because we have forgotten that 
law is not concerned with kindness, 
charity or even justice. Law he 
says is intended to protect all so- 
ciety, not to protect the criminal. 
We recall former Town Counsel 
Addison Pike winning for the town 
the case against the ice cream 
vender who argued that his State 
license gave him the right to sell 
his wares regardless of town by- 
law. Mr. Pike argued that his 
license was for the protection of 
the public, not to enable him to 
carry on his business as he pleased 
in contravention to local statute, 
and the Court upheld Mr. Pike. 
When the law, designed to protect 
the community, commences to do 
just that, a lot of those new to 
crime will stop their activities be- 
fore they begin. They won’t like 
the prospect of what is in store 
for them from a law that wasn’t 
made with their protection in mind. 


REFERENDUM ONLY WAY 


Editor of the Star: 

With our present form of Limit- 
ed Town Meeting, many of us never 
have a chance to vote Yes or No on 
town expenditures. Town Meeting 
members do not represent us. They 
vote as they wish not as we wish. 
The most glaring example of this 
was in 1952. A straw vote was 
taken in Precinct 3. A Ninety Per- 
cent coverage of residents was ob- 
tained. To the question, “Are you 
content to see the tracks raised?” 
The Vote was 3 to 1 — No. The 
No cards included the name of our 
present Commissioner! 

A short time after the results of 
this straw vote were made known, 
the Town Meeting members from 
Precinct 3 were required officially 
to vote on the same subject. Their 
official vote was Yes. Not one ex- 
ception that I can remember. This 
made it look as though Precinct 3 
was One Hundred Percent back of 
the plan to raise the tracks! 

Those of us who cannot vote in 
our own right — or even by proxy 
— have only one way to show dis- 
pleasure with a course of action 
adopted by our Town officials; 
namely, we must use the Referen- 
dum. 

At the time this is written, it 
seems likely that Friday, Novem- 
ber 20, 1953, will be the date for a 
Referendum on the Grade Crossing 
appropriation of $190,000 from 
Town funds. At the same time as 
the above sum was voted, the Se- 
lectmen were officially instructed to 
go ahead with a plan to raise the 
tracks and also build a By-Pass 
through the Skillings Estate. Cost 
to State is to be approximately 0 
million. Cost to Winchester is lim- 
ited to $190,000 for property dam- 
ages in Center. Actuul cost is 
known to be nearly twice that, but 
we hope the State will absorb the 
difference. The wording of the 
Article is open to doubt. 

Nt> estimate was mentioned as to 
incidental costs to Winchester for 
getting disrupted streets and ser- 
vices back into order after con- 
tractors have finished. 

Grades at several streets are to 
be changed from an elevation of 25 
feet or more to a depressed area of 
equal amount (Bacon street and 
Swanton street?) You can picture 
the upset to abutters at such points. 
The State is not concerned with 
many of these purely local prob- 
lems; but the costs must be paid by 
individuals or Town. Nothing will 
pay for inconvenience over many 
months. 

Also, the State is not concerned 
at possible tragic results to certain 
business men and women who may 
be forced out of business because 
the Center is to be torn up over a 


two-year period. Did you know 
thnt there are over 80 commercial 
ventures close to the Center? It 
has been estimated that in some of 
these cases, volume of trade will 
fall off 30-40 percent. The Center 
will be dusty, noisy and filled with 
temporary ways for pedestrians 
and vehicles. Parking will be re- 
stricted, even unavailable for near- 
ly two years. Remember, four 
heavy cement piers must be “cast” 
at the center and heavy girders 
swung into place to form the three- 
arch bridge for the double tracks 
of the B. & M. 

At another point, pile drivers 
will shake that area lying over the 
old peat bog. Tons of material 
must be removed and other tons 
brought in. The steady rumble of 
j the contractors huge trucks, bull- 
dozers, cranes, compressors, etc., 
will keep the Center in an uproar 

a true no-man’s land! 

•Shoppers will go elsewhere. Why 
'not? A dozen small businesses 
j will go bankrupt in a two-year 
period. These men and women will 
I had no redress, with their limited 
! means. The “Big Fellows” pos- 
sibly can hire legal help. 

After the job is finished, here 
are some of the points that may 
effect you and me: 

( 1 ) The noise and dust of fast 
express trains will be more in 
, evidence than now. 

(2) We will find two walls with 
the space between filled with gravel 
upon which the double tracks of 
the B. & M. will rest, high in air. 

(3) From a point half-way down 
to Wedgemere to just beyond the 
Woburn Branch, the; wall will be as 
high as the eves of the present 
Traffic Tower. 

(4) At the center, a large traffic 
circle will shimmer in the summer 
heat except where the dark shadow 
of the three-span bridge passes 
over head from North to South. 

(5) Arc these girders to be made 
more conspicuous by a veneer of 
seam-faced stone? The doubtful 
improvement does not justify the 
expense. • 

(6) Ramps are provided for 
young people wishing to reach the 
new train platforms. These ramps 
are long and steep and exposed to 
all winter conditions. They are 
long enough to leave you breathless 
if you hurry from the warm station 
at ground level to catch your train 

| some 20 feet or more higher. 

I (7) Upon your return from Bos- 
! ton on a night of freezing drizzle, 
those long slopes will give you a 
“thrill.” There is no doubt of that. 

(8) During the construction 
period, the temporary tracks will 
probably eliminate the parking 
areas near the station and along 
Common street to its Northen end. 

(9) The other part of Common 
street, serving the stores in the 
Waterfield Block, will be dead-end, 
while the underpass is being built. 

(10) It is hard to see how the 
two rows of trees along the east 
side of the Common can be saved? 
Another gaunt parking lot may be 
planned for this area when tem- 

; porary tracks are removed in 1956? 

(11) Over by the Town Hall the 
; new By-Pass starts at a traffic cir- 
cle (3 times larger than existing 

lone) at the intersection of Wash- 
j ington street and Mt. Vernon street. 

| Beautiful Skillings Estate will be 
! flattened and century old trees sent 
I to the dump. Land not actually 
| used by new highway (4 lane?) 
may be black-topped and offers 
parking area to two nearby church- 
I es. 

( 1 2 > The dream of a former 
: Planning Board that the Skillings 
Estate was cheap at $30,000 is now 
I thrown into the discard. The other 
night this exceptional site for a 
, public building was handed over to 
•the contractors for the value of its 
gravel content! 

* If we think the official plan is 
stupid and extravagant, it is ourj 
I duty to vote it down at the Refer- 
endum. Do not let it go through 
by default. Take the time to vote. !

"WHEN WILL IT STOP! 


Editor of the Star: 

The property owners of Swanton 
and Spruce streets, attended a 
meeting Friday evening at the re- 
quest of the Board of Selectmen. 
We would appreciate space in your 
column to give our views as to the 
: proceedings. 

All members of the Board of Se- 
lectmen were present with their 
secretary, and Harrison Lyman 
who took notes, and a member of 
the engineering staff of the Wor- 
cester Co., Mr. Barker. 

Mr. Greer opened the meeting, 
stating that the Board was calling 
this conference to explain the plans] 
that had already been voted on at 
the Special Town Meeting; he j 
stated that the Board and the en- 1 
gineer would like to hear any plans 
that might be more acceptable to 
relieve the affected abuttors. 

He continually referred to the 
project as though it were about to 
start, giving scant attention to ob- 
jections that the matter was still | 
to be decided by a referendum. To 
confuse the situation still further I 
and confirm the statements, al- ' 
ready made that the town meeting j 
voted a “final plan” that was not 
even understood by the proponents, j 
it was said that it is thought now • 
that Spruce street (proposed to be | 
closed ut the intersection of Swan- 
ton street) would be twelve feet: 
above Swanton and under any con- ! 
dition could not be left open. On j 
this one point we now have had 
three different figures as to the i 
height of the wall in as many meet- 1 
ings: eight feet at the Public Hear- 
ing, ten feet ut the Town Meeting, 
and now twelve feet. When will it 
stop ? 

It was pointed out (again assum- 
ing that the project was going 
through), that the Board and the 
Department of Public Works would 
spare no expense if by adding a 
few thousand dollars to the cost of 
th eproject it would satisfy these 
abuttors. Several of the property 
owners stated their position to 
, leave the tracks where they are, 
that additional damages was not 
the project it would satisfy these 
were opposed to the plan as it 


stands because it affects them, their 
neighbors and the whole town. 

After considerable prompting by 
the Chnirman requesting sugges- 
tions as to how the abuttors would 
relieve the situation IF the project 
was accepted the people grasped 
the spirit of the affair. In the 
language of the last war — Snafu. 
(Situation Normal, All Fouled Up,) 
and the suggestions came thick and 
fast, always prefaced by a desire 
to leave the tracks where they are. 
Some of the suggestions included. 

1. Taking all the houses in that 
area of Swanton street, 

2. (’losing Swanton street at the 
Bridge (no thought of the affect of 
this on the two largest industries 
in the town, Bcggs & Cobb and the 
International Cooperage, 

3. Moving the houses thirty or 
forty feet back, 

4. Re-routing traffic through the 
side streets to the Shore road nnd 
the Centre area and back up the 
opposite side of the tracks 4o Swan- 
ton street, 

5. Building stairs from the low- 
ered Swanton street to the houses’ 
level in this instance it was 
stated, in some places there would 
be as many as thirty eight steps. 
To chance for baby carriages, 

G. Entering the property from 
the rear which would mean turning 
all the houses around — and on and 
on until the most serious question 
of all brought gasps to everyone: 

What will happen to these houses 
and occupants in case of fire or 
serious accident? What provision 
has been made for safety protec- 
tion on a 15 foot wide service road? 
It was apparent that neither the 
Selectmen nor the engineer had 
figured on getting fire apparatus 
into these dead-end service drive- 
ways or to dead end Spruce street 
area. That serious thought brought 
the residents back from engineer- 
, ing dreams to the practical fact 
that, they did not want the tracks 
raised, no matter what scheme was 
involved. The meeting ended with- 
out a vote being taken but it was 
easy to sense that the owner-resi- 
dents and their representatives 
would have carried the day unani- 
mously. 

Sincerely yours, 

For the residents and owners of 
the Swanton and Spruce street 
area,

ROUTINE OF THE 
U. S. MARINE CORPS RECRUIT 

Editor of the Star: 

Having received so many calls 
asking “What becomes of my boy 
after he has enlisted in the Ma- 
rines?” I turned to PIO Sgt. Jack 
(’hi Ids, Room 734, Post Office 
Square, Boston, for verification of 
my understanding of a man’s en- 
trance into the Marine Corps. Here 
goes : 

After being sworn into the Ma- 
rines the man leaves for Parris Is- 
land, S. (’. (He may have enlisted 
for 3, 4 or 6 years). The first af- 
ternoon, about 60 of you will be 
gathered together and told that 
from now on your group will be 
known us a platoon. You’ll train 
together, eat, sleep and work to- 
gether for the next few weeks. 
During this period you will be 
called “Boots” training for specific 
jobs with the Corps. After that 
you’ll be Murines and on your sep- 
arate ways. But going back to the 
beginning, after arrival at Parris 
Island you will be fitted with uni- 
form, clothing, draw a rifle, cart- 
ridge belt, bayonet and various ar- 
ticles known as 782 equipment. The 
second day is filled with physical 
examinations, etc. The platoon to 
which you are assigned will be 
commanded by a non-commissioned 
officer, who is your instructor. Pay 
strict attention to what he tells 
you. He will teach you bayonet 
training, chemical warfare, com- 
bat principles and exercises, drill, 
field fortifications, field sanitation, 
first aid, interior guard duty, mili- 
tary courtesy, parades and cere- 
monies, personal hygiene, physical 
training, scouting and patrolling, 
rifle training, pistol training, and 
grenade and B. A. R. training. 

Catholic, Protestant and Hebrew 
services are held weekly on the Is- 
land. There are chaplains on the 
post who will give you such reli- 
gious advice as you may desire. If 
you should have any complaint to 
make or desire any information, do 
not hesitate to go to your first 
sergeant, who is the representative 
of the commanding officer. 

There seems to be a mistaken 
idea abroad that the Marine Corps 
will take anybody. Let me hasten 
to correct this and give you the 
moral qualifications : 

“Applicants whose record or in- 
terview indicate conviction by a ci- 
vil court, or an adverse record of 
adjudication by a juvenile court for 
any offense within the jurisdiction 
of the respective court, or where 
other evidence indicates commis- 
sion of an act that would render 
the applicant liable to prosecution 
in such a court, will be rejected. 
Waivers may be requested for the 
following cases: 

Applicants with juvenile rec- 
ords, having been on probation 
(or delivered to training schools) 
but who have been off such proba- 
tion for a period of six months 
before making application for 
enlistment. Any applicant who 
has served on probation will re- 
quire waiver clearance from 
II QS, Marine Corps, before being 
accepted for enlistment. All such 
cases will be interviewed by the 
recruiting officer or his assistant 
before waiver is requested.” 

For the first time a Marine re- 
cruiting representative is being as- 
signed to Winchester. He is S Sgt 
John O’Connell. If you see me 
around with the Marines 1 am not 
about to leave for Parris Island. I 
am just introducing him around. I 
hope you will stop him and say 
“hello.” We would like him to feel 
as much at home here as do our Air 
| Force and Army sergeants. 

A hearty welcome to the U. S. 
Marine Corps. 

Cordially yours, 

Mrs. K. B. Toye 
Chairman, Military 
Manpower Committee 













VOTE YOUR OWN OPINION 

Editor of the Star: 

I am absolutely opposed to the 
basic plan of having the tracks 
raised and the Boston and Maine 
trains roaring through the town on 
a high embankment which would 
start from below Wedgemere and 
reach to Cross street. Before this 
plan is considered any further I 
would suggest that the former 
plans be reviewed afid perhaps 
modified to suit new traffic prob- 
lems and the best of these, that do 
not contemplate raising the tracks 
be fairly presented against this 
present plan. We have considered 
this matter so long now, that a lit- 
tle more time to reach a satisfac- 
tory solution will be well spent and 
I believe that the State has an- 
other project ahead of the Win- 
chester problem. Some overhead 
traffic plan may be found that will 
not disfigure the town and create 
such a terrible mess for two years 
or more. Every voter in town who 
wishes to see presented the best of 
the previous plans which do not 
raise the tracks, properly and fair- 
ly presented, so that it can be com- 
pared and studied against the 
present plan, should make it his oi- 
lier special duty to register a vote j 
against the present plan at tin* I 
coming referendum. I think Mrs. I 
Woodside suggested something like 
this in her speech at the last town 
meeting. 

And many people in town, do 
not know that Mr. Elmer Fletcher,! 
who opposes the present plan was 
once town engineer of Winchester 
and his opinion should be given j 
great weight. 

In addition to the mess, caused 
by the temporary tracks and the 
mud in Black Ball Pond, the pro- 
posed plan causes serious compli- 
cations at the Wedgemere station 
and at Swanton street. Further, 
the proposed by-pass, ruins the 
beautiful Skillings lot which might 
in time be used for a new public' 
building for Winchester, and also 
concentrates the ever increasing 
traffic on Washington street to 
route 128, and the heavy Woburn 
traffic, all at the Town Hall, Bap- 
tist Church and Wadleigh School 
and in addition much of the traffic 
from Border road and Highland j 
avenue which comes up and down 
Mt. Vernon street. Then tin* by- 
pass crosses the Mystic Valley 
Parkway at the Library and High 
School causing another problem 
and 1 believe some of the land has 
to be taken from the Library and 
High School to widen Washington 
street. 

For the above reasons I hope 
every voter in town will study this 
situation carefully and then vote, 
so that what is done will be an ex- 
pression of the will of the people 
of Winchester as a whole. It has 
been suggested that the last refer- 
endum was not representative be- 
cause the opposition to the plan 
was not well organized and the 
proponents made every effort pos- 
sible to get the voters to vote their 
way, and this time I hope everyone 
will think for themselves and vote. 
Remember if you voted for it be- 
fore you can always change your 
mind after due consideration.

THEY LIKE WINCHESTER! 

Editor of the Star: 

“How do you like your new home 
— and how do you like living in 
Winchester?” I asked a friend who 
moved to Winchester 3 or 4 years 
ago. 

“I love it,” was the quick reply, 
“and my husband loves it more 
than I. You see, he has heart trou- 
ble and you can’t imagine what a 
blessing it is to him to drive to the 
station and get on the train with- 
out climbing a single step.” 

“It will be quite a change when 
we get the elevated railroad 19 or 
20 it. high in the air — with long 
ramps or steps to climb to the 
platform. In Lynn, with a platform 
of the same height, it is 32 steps 
up to the platform, where there 
are 2 or 3 boards on each side of a 
horizontal stick which they call a 
canopy, and not even a post to hide 
behind or to hold on to in wind or 
rain or sleet or snow.” 

“What do you mean about an 
elevated railroad? All I have ever 
heard about is what they call an 
‘overpass’ for the cars to go under 
without waiting.” 

“This much-advertised ‘overpass’ 
pictured so beautifully with trains 
looking as if they were 2 or 3 feet 
above ground is an optical illusion, 
for in reality the trains will be 19 
or 20 feet high and under this 
beautiful ‘overpass* there will be a 
traffic circle that may rival the one 
at llaymarket, or Sullivan Square. 
You may have to diet to squeeze 
by it from Mt. Vernon to Church 
street, for they say even a corner 
of McCormack’s Drug Store will 
have to be chopped off. And the 
‘overpass* will be only a connecting 
link in the middle of a two or 
three-mile elevated railroad cutting 
the town in two, from Cross street 
to somewhere between Wedgemere 
and Medford. And Wedgemere with 
its interesting setting? All 1 could 
think of during the very clever 
description of it at the recent hear- 
ing (with so many unanswered 
questions) was ‘Waltz Me Around 
Again, Willie.’ It will certainly 
take a guide and plenty of time 
for your first trip if you want to 
catch a train.” 

“Oh, dear, what will my poor 
husband say when he find out, es- 
pecially when his doctor always 
says, ‘now, don’t climb stairs,’ and 
do you know he tells me several of 
his friends have been told the same 
tiling by their doctors. 

“How many steps did you say 
that they have for the overhead in 
Lynn ?” 

“When I went down there last 
spring to investigate I counted 32 
steps up and 32 steps down and 
was told that the height of the 
platform was the same as it would 
lie in Winchester. But I must be 
going! You see, I am out getting 
names for the referendum which 
will give a chance to vote to every- 
one of the approximately ninety 
five hundred voters who had no 
chance to vote in Town .Meeting 
and will have no chance except 
through the referendum! 

“Get the facts as well as you can 
about the confused, misleading 


questions on the ballot nnd decide 
whether or not you want to turn 
over $190,000 (One hundred and 
ninety thousand dollars) of our 
clear,* free cash (which we have 
been saving for schools) for one 
man nnd 'other interests’ to handle 
without a written, signed state- 
ment of what we are to get for our 
money. Think it over!”

ALL VOTERS 
SHOULD BE RECORDED 

November 4, 1953 
Editor of the Star: 

In Winchester, this is the time 
for every citizen to stand up and 
be counted. When the referendum 
on the question of the abolition of 
the grade crossing is held, all vo- 
ters who have any interest in the 
future of their town should go to 
the polls and be recorded. 

It is almost universally agreed 
that the present situation in the 
center is untenable. It is not only 
inconvenient, but it is unsafe. For 
many years there lias been an ex- 
treme hazard. Only diligent pre- 
cautions by town and railroad of- 
ficials have held down fatalities. 
The entrapment of police, fire and 
ambulance equipment in the center 
congestion courts disaster. The 
condition is so well known that no 
additional elaboration is needed. 

As the representative of the peo- 1 
pie in the General Court, 1 have 
always stood ready to cooperate 
fully with any plan that was adopt- 
ed by the town. In order that there 
may be no misunderstanding, how- 
ever, I should, at this time, like to 
declare myself as unequivocally fa- j 
voring the present proposed plan 
put forward by the selectmen and 
adopted in the recent special town 
meeting. 

No plan will provide a perfect 
solution. We must accept that as a 
hypothesis. What plan, then, will 
be most desirable? Every official 
engineering study has returned the 
answer that the only practical way 
to abolish the grade crossing is to 
raise the tracks. In fact, if time I 
is given to a conscientious study of 
costs, limitations and features of 
alternate plans, one need not be an 
engineer to realize that these other 
proposals have far greater objec- 
tions than the one currently offered 
by the selectmen. For my own 
part, I am thoroughly convinced 
that the town now has before it the 
only practical and logical solution 
for abolishing the grade crossing. 
Moreover, while I do not believe 
the town should adopt a poor plan 
under any circumstances, I feel 
that the possibility of securing this 
imperative improvement at a guar- 
anteed total cost of $190,000 to the 
Town of Winchester is an almost 
incredible bargain. The Common- 
wealth recognizes the urgent ne- 
cessity for the abolition of this 
crossing and for that reason is will- 
ing to place its funds behind the 
project. 

After many years of careful 
study and collaboration by the 
town, state and railroad officials, 
the citizens should be highly grati- 
fied that a solution to our vexa- 
tious center problem has been 
agreed upon and is at hand. In my 
opinion, the voters of the town will 
do well to support this plan, and to 
support it in record numbers on 
referendum day!! 

Yours sincerely, 
Harrison Chadwick 
Representative 


"THEY VOTED IT! 


Editor of the Star: 

This appears to he the latest of 
many slogans circulated about 
Town by the promoters of the Ele- 
vated Rail l oad referring to a re- 
cent Town Meeting. 

And who are “They”? 

“They” in this case are 143 Pre- 
cinct members out of a Total of 229 
(probably half of them Town offi- 
cials or employees) who Voted for 
the Elevated Railroad. This no 
doubt, they will promptly annqunce 
as an “Overwhelming Vote.” 143 
votes out of a possible 229 Town 
Meeting Members is a very small 
number. 143 Votes Representing 
Approximately 9,500 registered 
Voters At Large Is A Still Smaller 
Number And An Unpardonable 
Proportion Of Citizens And Tax- 
payers r I*o Vote On A Question Of 
Such Tragic Importance Involving 
Wasted Millions Of Dollars And 
Ruin Of Our Lovely Town. 

Only The Referendum Which We 
Are Promoting By Our Persistent 
Interest And Hard Work Can (live 
To Every Voter The Right To Vote 
As He Believes — Be It “Yes” Or 
“No” In The Privacy Of The Vot- 
ing Booth. 

We hope that many taxpayers 
and devoted citizens will appre- 
ciate the privilege and Vote!

A COINCIDENCE 

To reverse a shopworn remark, 
“No one planned it that way,” yet 
the subject of the special town 
meeting of November 12, gains 
special significance when it is noted 
that the theme of American Edu- 
cation Week, during which the 
meeting is neld, is “good schools 
arc your responsibility.” When 
Winchester folk meet together on 
Thin- J v night to consider and act 
on the report of the Building Com- 
mitter for Additional Facilities for 
the Senior ;.nd Junior High Schools, 
they will he accepting a share of 
that responsibility. 

In the words of the late Lee M. 
Thurston, former United States 
Commissioner of Education, “The 
American people are doing more 
than they have ever done before 
for the education of our nation’s 
children." In 1952, they Guilt 50,- 
000 new classrooms to help house 
the swelling a*n i ■■•’’merits which rose | 
t»* 2K,(iC0,i'0ti pupi's. Nevertheless, 
shortages MMiia’n, and it is estim- 
ated that another 400,000 class- 
t'OQins will lie needed by 1960. 

The figures of present enrollment 
in the Winchester schools, publish- 
ed earlier this fall, leave no doubt 
that the need for action to increase 
school facilities in the junior and 
senior high schools must he met 
now. It is to he hoped that the 
town meeting will recognize that 
need and take appropriate action.

THE FORTNIGHTLY 

ART COMMITTEE 

Tin* Fortnightly through its Art 
Committee is sponsoring Art Ex- 1 
Dibits in three local store windows | 
this week to observe American Art I 
week. 

Being shown in Peck and Peck’s 
window on Main street is a beau- 
tiful booked rug “Inspiration” done 
by Mrs. Lester Leathers along with 
several lovely old re-decorated box - 1 
es by Anna L. Burgoyne and Paul- 
line Hudson; also a delightful hand 
painted tray by Anna L. Burgoyne. j 

In Filene’s window on Thompson 
street may he seen oil paintings by 
three Winchester artists. “Whis- j 
key Bayou” by G. Russell Mann, j 
“Chrysanthemums” b y Marion ; 
Ladd Symmes and a Roekport 
scene by Elizabeth M. Lobingier. 
The last an award received by Mrs. 
Lester Leathers when Art Chair- 
man two years ago. 

At the Winchester News on 
Thompson street, a watereolor 
“Winchester Victorian” by another 
local artist, Ardyce Cairncrops and 
one by A. Bruno are displayed. The 
Bruno watereolor was won by Mrs. 
Frederick Colo, last year’s chair- 
man. 

Mrs. Marshall Symmes, this 
year’s Chairman was assisted by 
Mrs. Lester Leathers in making 
these arrangements. 

Literature Committee 

Members of the Literature Com- 
mittee and guests met at 2:00 p. m. 
November 2, in the Edgar C. Rich 
room of the Public Library and en- 
joyed hearing two speakers. 

Miss Caroline V. Everett pre- 
sented an excellent paper on the 
life of Dorothy Canfield Fisher 
from the time of her birth in Kan- 
sas in 1879 to the present day. 
After Mrft. Fisher’s marriage, she 
and her husband made their home 
on a Vermont farm where they 
have lived ever since, except for 
four years spent in France when 
they volunteered their services dur- 
ing the first World War. It was 
during this period that Mrs. Fisher 
developed her deep understanding 
of the French people, especially the 
children. 

Mrs. Fisher’s books and articles 
always contrast the true with the 
artificial, accent character and not 
characters. Always interested in 
young people, her industrious and 
constant efforts stressed to them ' 
the value of New England tradi- 1 
tion. The University of Vermont 
has become the final resting place i 
of her manuscripts which are called 
“The Dorothy Canfield Collection”. 

Miss Gertrude M. Hall gave a de- 
lightful review of two books, j 
“Family Album”, by Antonia Ridge 
and “Lovely is the Lea”, by Robert 
(Jibbing. Both are written in the 
the first person, the former is of a 
search for members of a family by 
means of an album, and the second 
of a trip by boat down the Seine 
river. 

Regular Meeting 

Tin* regular meeting of the Fort- 
nightly will lie held Monday, No- 
vember 9th, in the First Baptist 
Church at 2:00 p. m. with Mrs. Sid- 
ney A. Burr, the President, in the 
chair. 

The speaker for the afternoon 
will be Miss Mary P. Kirkpatrick, 
who will relate some of her expe- 
riences as a special officer at the 
Framingham State Barracks. 

Tea will he served.

ART LECTURE TO FULL HOUSE 


In his talk to the Winchester Art 
Association, Mr. Garabed d e r 
Hohannesian gave a brief historical 
survey of man’s development as a 
creative individual who in terms of 
his own environment expresses the 
thought and spirit of his times. The 
important element in painting, he 
said, is the organization of space, 
"since things are what they are be- 
cause of their relationship to each 
other”. 

Mr. der Hohannesian pointed out 
that anyone who will devote a few 
minutes each day to it can develop 
his appreciation of contemporary 
art without necessarily liking or 
approving of it. At Rhode Island 
School of Design students are 
trained to be creative individuals 
who can express themselves in any 
style without copying, and he be- 
lieves that the personal reaction is 
the most vital contribution the ar- 
tis can make. 

The paintings Mr. der Hohanne- 
sian brought effectively illustrated 
many possibilities of line, texture, 


color and spatial relationships. His 
paintings shared with those of 
Maud Morgan which are on view 
for November the use of an excit- 
ing palette, strong individuality, 
similar abstract design and impres- 
sive variety of composition. Mrs. 
Morgan’s titles suggest biomorphic 
subject matter which was handled 
with force and simplicity in con- 
trast to Mr. der Hohannesian’s 
more objective and more highly or- 
ganized compositions. 

The wall cases in the gallery 
were decorated by Mrs. H. W. 
Nickerson with examples of her fine 
ceramics. Hostesses for the eve- 
ning were Miss Dorothy Nash and 
Miss Sylvia Parker. 


The Thomas R. Powells of 4 
Rangeley Ridge, who have moved 
to Hampton, Conn., were given a 
farewell party last Saturday by a 
group of neighbors and friends. 
Mrs. John Sexton was hostess for 
the tea at her home in Rangeley, 
and Mrs. Nelson C. Fontneau gave 
the luncheon at her home on Church 
street.

God's love for man as His spiritual

Science servlets Sunday. 

The Lesson-Sermon entitled "Adam and 
Fallen Man" includes the fallowing pas- 
sages from tiie Bible: 

"So God created man in His own image, 
in the image of God created lie him : male 
and female created he tin in. And God saw 
everything that lie had made, and. behold, 
it was very good” (Genesis 1:27,31). 

This explanatory passage will he read 
from "Science and Health with Key to the 
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: 

"Entirely separate from the belief nnd 
dream of material living. Is the Life divine, 
revealing spiritual understanding nnd the 
consciousness of man’s dominion over the 
whole earth" (14:25). 

Tin* Golden Text is from Romans: 

"As by the olTense of one judgment came 
upon nil nu n to condemnation ; even so by 
the righteousness of one the free gift came 
upon all men unto justification of life" 
(5:18).

AFRICAN ESPARTO, 

ASIAN ZOYSIA — 
CINDERELLAS OF THE 
GRASS FAMILY 

Two wild grasses from opposite 
sides of the world each offer a story 
| of man’s ingenuity in finding boun- 
ty in improbable places. 

‘ One plant, rapped nnd dry, sup- 
ports a thrivinp business on the 
frinpe of the North African desert, 
the National Geographic Society 
says. The other, whose wiry preen 
sprips were first found in the wilds 
of northeastern Asia, today carpets 
the White House lawn in Washinp- 
ton. 

The first is named _ esparto, or 
Stipa tenacissima in botanical 
terms. The second is called “Meyer 
zovsia.” 

Paper, Rope And Power 

Esparto — also known as Span- 
ish prass, alfa, and halfa — flour- 
ishes bravely in rocky, sun-parched 
soil where almost nothinp else will 
prow. Rapped clusters of reedlike 
stalks, three to four feet hiph, clinp 
to stony foothills and arid plateaus 
from southern Spain across Moroc- 
co, Algeria, and Tunisia. 

Its leaves, tender when younp, 
soon prow too tough for cattle to 
chew. Yet this harsh pray prass 
ranks as one of the world’s most 
valuable uncultivated crops. 

Fine printing papers are made 
from esparto in England and 
France — glossy coated sheets for 
illustrated magazines, crackling 
parchments for college diplomas. 
The Spanish navy makes rope of 
esparto, hawsers so light they will 
float. Baskets, hats, carpets and 
tough desert sandals have been 
women from esparto fiber for 2,0(K) 
years. 

Today its collection is a tightly 
controlled, highly organized in- 
dustry, involving nomadic tribes of 
prass merchants and fleets of plod 
ding camels. Picked by hand and 
brought to remote weighing sta- 
tions on camelback, esparto bales 
travel from hinterland to coast in 
huge 20-ton trailer trucks that fol- 
low dusty, barely marked tracks. 
Eventually thousands of tons of the 
dried grass pile high on wharves 
for shipment to paper mills ns far 
away as Scotland. 

Korean Discovery 

Meyer zoysia is an even more 
recent Cinderella of the grass fam- 
ily. It was discovered in Korea 40 
years ago by a United States De- 
partment of Agriculture plant ex- 
plorer, Frank N. Meyer, who died 
in the Orient after sending home 
many valuable new plants. No one 
then realized its potentiality. 

. Much more recently one parti- 
cular strain of the grasses Meyer 
collected was found to be an amaz- 
ingly tough and adaptable grass 
for American lawns and golf ; 
courses. Tested and developed 
further by plant scientists at the 
government’s experimental farms 
at Bcltsville, Maryland, the grass 
which hears Meyer’s name now is 
being planted by homeowners in all 
parts of the country. 

Meyer zoysia’s asset, s include an 
ability to outgrow erabgrass. It 
thrives in poor soil, resisting dis- 
eases and insects that ruin ordinary 
lawns. Golf greenskeepers call it 
virtually divot-proof, for it quickly 
spreads and fills in any chunks tak- 
en from its thick, springy turf. 

Not that White House gardeners 
expect many divots in their acres 
of manicured lawn — but Meyer 
zoysia now forms a carpet of preen 
beauty around the home of the na- 
tion’s golf-playing President.

AUSTRALIAN SCIENTISTS 
TO ESTABLISH 
FIRST WEATHER STATION 
ON ANTARCTICA 


Ten Australian scientists and 
technicians will sail from Mel- 
bourne in January to set up Aus- 
tralia’s first scientific station on 
the mainland of Antarctica. 

The expedition is expected to 
ljn.se on the coast at a point south- 
west of Western Australia, reports 
the National Geographic Society. 
The advance party will land sup- 
plies, erect buildings, and make a 
limited land survey during the first 
year. 

Detailed weather studies will be- 
pin early in 1955, as will research 
in geology, biology, cosmic rays 
and geophysics. Each expedition 
member will do a 12-month tour of 
duty. The frigid outpost will be 
maintained through 1958. 

Antarctic “Weather Eye** 

The Australian Government be- 
gan its long-range plan to explore 
and develop the neighboring Ant- 
arctic area six years ago, when 
weather stations were established 
at Heard and Macquarie Islunds. 
On these lonely windswept land 
spots meteorologists conduct at 24- 
hour-a-day study of an eight-mile- 
high column of air to classify Ant- 
arctic weather sweeping up into 
the temperate zones. 

Antarctica is known to contain 
huge deposits of coal and other 
valuable minerals — possibly ura- 
nium. Its seas hold tremendous 
food resources in whales, fish, seals, 


i birds and plankton, to which the 
I world might eventually be obliged 
to turn. Flights between South 
America or South Africa and Aus- 
tralia may some day be routed over 
I the Antarctic. 

Australia’s Antarctic territory 
| lies between longitudes 45 degrees 
east and 160 degrees east. The 
I area embraces 2,472,000 square 
| miles and is almost as large as 
j Australia itself. At its nearest 
| point, Antarctica is only 1,500 
miles south of Australia. 

Danish Ship Chartered 

Most of the men in the advance 
party have already served on 
Heard or Macquarie Islunds. They 
will sail to Antarctica in the 1500- 
ton Danish motor vessel, Kistn 
Dan. It has a speed of 12 knots 
when fully loaded, a range of 14,- 
500 miles, and is one of the world’s 
most modern ice ships. 

The Kista Dan is powered by a 
directly reversible six - cylinder 
diesel engine, with propeller and 
rudder protected against ice. It 
will take soundings in uncharted 
coastal waters. 

Strapped to the ship’s decks will 
he two light aircraft. Mounted on 
floats or skis, they will be used for 
reconnaissance flights, flown and 
serviced by Royal Australian Air 
Force personnel. 

Expedition members will be 
equipped with polar ski boots from 
Norway, windproofs of Australian 
design, eiderdown jackets from 
France, and polar tents made in 
Britain. On land they will travel 
in “weasels”, tracked snow vehicles 
manufactured in the United States 
for use in World War II. Dog 
sledges will be hauled by huskies 
bred and trained at Heard Island.

Coney Island, Brooklyn’s crowd-

once inhabited only by rabbits, says 
the National Geographic Society. 
Its very name may be a derivation 
of “konijn.” Dutch word for rabbit, 
by which it was called on early 
maps.

SECOND WINCHESTER MORNING 


Mr. Theodore Wood, Jr., of Mass- 
achusetts Institute of Technology 
presented a program of American 
Folksongs at the Music Hall on Oc- 
tober 29th for the second Winches- 
ter Morning sponsored by the Win- 
chester Wellesley Club. 

Accompanying himself on the 
guitar, Mr. Wood, whose pleusant 
baritone voice could resound effec- 
tively in a rollicking sea chanty 
or modulate tenderly for a plain- 
tive lovesong, treated an appre- 
ciative audience to a musical saga 
of the American pioneers. Relat- 
ing his songs to their travels, 
he traced their progress from 
the Eastern seaboard to the Pacific 
coust. Commencing with the Pos- 
ton “Come All ’Ye” and some 
typical sea chanties, he sang 
the ballads of the early settlers 
as they moved slowly westward, 
fanning out to the mountains of 
Kentucky, the farmlands of the 
South, and the western prairies. 
Still sung by the mountaineers is 
the old English ballad “Edward”, 
while southern planters recorded 
their problems in the “Boll Weevil 
Song”. Sturdy frontiersmen in 
covered wagons left the Oregon 
Trail as their musical legacy, and 
the cowboys wakened lazy com- 
rades with the “Gittin’ Up Holler”, 
or lulled their cattle with the 
soothing strains of the “Colorado 
Trail”. As an example of one of 
the many railroad songs, Mr. Wood 
sang “John Henry”, which lauds 
the exploits of America’s greatest 
folksong hero. 

For the second half of his pro- 
gram Mr. Wood sang a “Garland of 
Love Songs”, which included the 
familiar “Foggy Foggy Dew” and 
“Frankie and Johnnie”, as well as 
others less well known, such as the 
“Riddle Song”, “Lament for a Lost 
Child” and “Wish I Was Single 
Again”. He concluded with the 
haunting ballad from south of the 
border, “Mi Amor Corazon”. Mr. 
Wood’s program, which was the 
first of its kind to be presented at 
the Mornings was most enthusias- 
tically received. 

The final program of the Win- 
chester Mornings will be on Thurs- 
day, November 12th, when Mr. 
John Ely Burchard, Dean of Hu- 
manities and Social Studies at 
Massachusetts Institute of Tech- 
nology will speak on Liberal Edu- 
cation. Mr. Burchard received a 
Master’s Degree in civil engineer- 
ing and architecture from M. I. T. 
and has a wide background of ex- 
perience in scientific research. Dur- 
ing World War II he led missions 
to the Caribbean, the Pacific Ocean 
area and Germany for the Office of 
Scientific Research and Develop- 
ment. Author of numerous books 
and pupers, he is widely known as 
a brilliant speaker. « 9

CIVIL DEFENSE 


'i 


The Civil Defense radio-equipped 
cars and their operators gave very 
valuable assistance this past Hal- 
lowe’en. The equipment worked to 
perfection, due to the assistance 
of Mr. Robert B. Richmond, the 
Civil Defense communications di- 
rector. The operators deserve a 
great deal of praise for their part 
in operating the cars and cooperat- 
ing with the police department. 
Mr. W. F. Beyers, Mr. W. J. Bar- 
tell, Mr. W. Burton, all of Win- 
chester, and Mr. J. Washburn of 
North Reading, were in these cars 
covering the town. Mr. Kendall 
Spencer operated the intercom 
helping to coordinate the police 
desk with the radio control room, 
remaining on duty until all was 
quiet. 

The radio-operated cars were 
responsible for apprehending sev- 
eral out-of-town invaders and pro- 
viding them with escort service to 
the town’s border. At some time 
during the evening Lieutenant 
Dcrro requested additional help 
from the auxiliary police, who re- 
sponded in full force. They were 
instrumental in breaking up groups 
of young people and their help 
proved invaluable as it has in the 
past. The police department is 
deeply grateful, as the residents 
should be, for a job well done. A 
great deal of credit goes to Cap- 
tain Robert A. Johnstone and his 
men. Because of their efforts van- 
dalism in Winchester was at a 
minimum. It once more proves that 
we cannot afford to be without 
them. 


GUESTS AT MAINE FARM 


FIRST BAPTIST YOUTH 

The Junior High and Senior High 
Youth Fellowship will meet to- 
gether at 0:30 on Sunday evening. 
They will have as a guest speaker 
Mr. Larry French, president of the 
Massachusetts Baptist Youth Fel- 
lowship. He will speak of the 
Fourth Baptist Youth World Con- 
ference which was held in Rio de 
Janeiro in June. 

Miss Cynthia Cummings will 
lead in the worship service. There 
will be special music by a girls’ 
chorus consisting of Irene Mullen, 
Norma Jean Hart, Frances Bos- 
selmann, Jean Dawson, and Caro- 
lyn Parks. Refreshments and fel- 
lowship following the meeting. 


On Tuesday eight members of 
the “Christmas Greens Day Com- 
mittee” of the Winchester Home 
and Garden Club spent a most de- 
lightful day as guests of Mrs. Nor- 
man Mitchell at her lovely old East 
Waterboro, Maine, farm, the build- 
ings of which date back to the early 
j seventeen hundreds and are very 
appropriately and tastefully fur- 
nished with antiques and family 
heirlooms. 

After a delicious luncheon Mrs. 
Mitchell helped committee mem- 
bers gather material in the sur- 
rounding woods, which will be used 
at the annual Christmas Gvoons* 
Day held at the Baptist Church on 1 
Wednesday, December 9th. 

All Garden Club members are in- 
vited to work on this Christmas ;

WINCHESTER BRANCH AUXILIARY 

Tlu* November meeting will he 
held at the home of Miss Mary A. 
Fitch, 14 Sheffield West, on Thurs- 
day, November 12th, at 2:30 p. m. 

The very interesting speaker will 
he Mr. John C\ MacFarlane, who 
speaks on T. V’. Fridays at 0:15 
p. m. on channel four on the pro- 
gram “Animal Fair”, which delights 
many people. He will bring his little 
dog to our meeting. 

Mr. MacFarlane is tlu* director 
of New Kngland Livestock Conser- 
vation, Inc., and he can tell us much 
that is being done to relieve the 
suffering of the food animals that 
are killed continuously for the 
benefit of people. Few of us know

Winchester Council No. 210. 
Knights of Columbus, will attend 
a memorial mass at the Immacu- 
late Conception Church on tlu* holi- 
day morning at 8:00 a. m. This an- 
nual service is a tribute to tlu* 
Council’s deceased members and a 
pledge that these latter have not 
been forgotten by tlu* Council. Led 
by Grand Knight John Nowell and 
his officers, the members of Win- 
chester Council will gather outside 
the church at 7:45 a. m. and pro- 
ceed inside in a body. All brothers 
of tlu* council are urged to make 
every effort to attend. Rev. Stephen 
Burke, Council chaplain, has high 
hopes that the church will be filled 
to overflowing and points out that 
some day we, too, will he overjoyed 
to have the members gathered to- 
gether to pray in remembrance of 
us. The date again: Wednesday, 
November 11th, at 8:00 a. m. 

The Council has appointed 
through Grand Knight Nowell a 
committee to sponsor a Christmas 
party for the children of members 
and their friends as has been the 
Council’s annual custom. It is hop- 
ed to make this another memor- 
able party as last year’s was. 

Membership in the Knights of 
Columbus is soaring, according to 
latest reports, with an all-time 
high reported for Massachusetts 
totaling 49,400. This figure was 
given lit the recent fall conference 
of K of C officials held recently. 

Judge John E. Swift, former Su- 
preme Knight of the K of C, at the 
annual meeting of the Supreme 
Council held not too long ago at 
St. Paul, Minnesota, called upon 
the members at this 71st annual 
meeting to fight the “Red Under- 
ground” by joining a program that 
“must tell the world that commu- 
nistic doctrines, spread by a vicious 
underground in the name of free- 
dom, are to be tagged as the spawn 
of God-hating individuals.” Pope 
Pius XII and President Dwight D. 
Eisenhower sent messages to the 
convention. 


TWO GIRLS

Miss Diane Nason of Oneida 
road and Miss Lila DeTeso of Olive

was graduated last June from 
Oberlin College and is now study-

Charles P. O’Rourke, Jr., of 20 
Symmos road is one of 23 railroad 
employees currently enrolled in tlu* 
s i x - w e e k s “Eastern Railroads

Prof. John Waters, director of 
Boston University’s Evening Div- 
ision, said in referring to the rail- 
road program, it is particularly en- 
couraging when any segment of in- 
dustry takes cognizance of the vast 
potential of “progress quotient” 
which even u little additional edu- 
cation for an individual can yield. 


RAINBOW CLUB 


The monthly meeting of the 
Rainbow Mothers Club was held at 
the home of Mrs. Paul Ward, 28 
Stone avenue.

IS THERE ANY ROOM FOR HOPE? 

pertain recent world changes rekindle the hopes of man- 
kind that its dreams of peace and good will may come true. 

We pray that the world’s resources may be rededicated and di- 
rected towards material and spiritual progress, rather than to- 
wards frenzied defenses against aggression and a mad race for 
weapons of mass destruction. W e hope that new international 
agreements now being developed may he sound enough to last. 

This opportunity before the world again may he wasted, 
ill part, as so many others have been. If so, it will mean that 
the leaders of the people and the people themselves do not yet 
have the faith necessary to shape the working agreements among 
nations around Christian principles. It will mean that our 
churches are not yet strong enough, that we have not yet los- 
tered the Christian spirit among the world's peoples to the level 
where it must lx* maintained for a lasting peace. 

There is room for hope that we may not fail. So much of 
it depends on you as an individual. A certain prayer suggests: 

“Thy Kingdom come, oh God, beginning with me.” We pray 
that the Church of God, of which you are a representative, can 
give to all people and tin* leaders of today and tomorrow spiri- 
tual strength and faith in Christian fellowship which represents 
the greatest hope of the world.

COUNCIL FOUND 
U. N. APPROVAL 

How many Winchester residents 
go along with the principle of the 
United Nations? 25'; ? 60'/< ? 

10 '/r ? 

According to a survey conducted 
during U. N. week by the Winches- 
ter United Nations Council through 
the cooperation of the High school 
and Junior High school, over 80',; 
of the replies approved the prin- 
ciple and purpose of the United 
Nations. These responses were 
from parents of students in both 
schools and from the High School 
students themselves. 

Approval of the U. N. was the 
largest area of agreement disclosed 
hy the poll and the second largest 
was approximately 20'; who were 
disheartened by the conduct of the 
Korean war, whether they approv- 
ed the U. N. or not. Only Vfc of 
1% of the students and 1V6% of 
the parents were totally opposed 
to international cooperation of any 
kind. 1 2 '/<■ of the students and 0'/ 
of the parents approved the United 
Nations but felt that it bad not 
functioned adequately in the Ko- 
rean war. 70' i of the students and 
07',; of the parents were in accord 
with the United Nations principle 
and felt that the U. N. had been of 
use in the Korean war also. In- 
teresting in several ways is the fact 
that 87',; of the students favored 
the U. N. as compared with 81% of 
their parents. 

The quality of response to the 
Council’s questionnaire was sur- 
prising. Many more were returned 
than the Council had expected. A 
large section of those replying had 
generously enlarged on their views, 
pro and con, and these opinions will 
la* of great value to the Council in 
evaluating public feeling about the 
United Nations. The Council is 
also indebted to Mr. Grindle, prin- 
cipal of the High school, and Mr. 
Hickman, principal of the Junior 
High, and to the room teachers for 
their cooperation. 

The Winchester U. N. Council is 
a group of representatives of exist- 
ing organizations in Winchester 
which are interested in building an 
informed public opinion on inter- 
national cooperation. The Council 
is particularly concerned with suit- 
able observance of United Nations 
Day and U. N. Week in Winches- 
ter and is not affiliated with any of 
the various national organizations 
related to the United Nations. 


NEW "PINT A YEAR CLUB" 

Two residents of Winchester 
have been identified with the pro- 
gram of the new “Pint a Year 
Club” originated at the Hlanchard 
Machine Company plant in Cam- 
bridge to obtain blood for the Red 
Cross. The company, located at 04 
State street in Cambridge, manu- 
factures surface grinding ma- 
chines. 

Mr. Henry K. Spencer of 1 Cen- 
tral Green, as general manager 
and treasurer of the firm, and Mr. 
Patrick Doherty of 223 High street, 
as supervisor of the magnetic 
chuck and coil winding depart- 
ments, have both endorsed the pro- 
gram and cooperated in furthering 
it in every way possible. 

The plan has worked so well at 
Blanchard’s that it is hoped it will 
he adopted ut other plants and 
offices throughout the country. 
Donations have been received cov- 
ering 69 percent of those eligible 
to give hy reason of their age. 

In discussing the recent explo- 
sion that took place on the carrier 
Leyte many of the men at Blan- 
chard’s feel that perhaps their 
blood may have helped save the life 
of one or more of those injured in 
the tragedy.

COUNTY LEGION TO MEET 

The regular November meeting 
of Middlesex County Council, The 
American Legion, Harold F. Col- 
lins of Ashland, commander, will 
he held on Sunday, November 15, 
at 3 p. m. in Maynard as the guest 
• if Frank J. Denims Post No. 235. 
The executive committee will meet 
at 2:30 p. m. 

Legion fo Aid Auxiliary 

One of the most valuable contri- 
butions which the American Legion 
Auxiliary makes to the rehabilita- 
tion of the veterans in Bedford 
Hospital is their annual Christmas 
Gift Shop. This shop is stocked 
with all kinds of suitable gifts for 
yuletide presents and include things 
for men, women and children. 

Just before the Christmas holi- 
day those veterans who are able 
to visit the shop are permitted to 
select a gift for every member of 
their family, and these gifts are 
then properly packed and address- 
ed und mailed hy the Auxiliary in 
time to he received by Christmas. 
Those veterans who are not able 
to visit the shop are not overlooked. 
Well-stocked carts are wheeled to 
their bedside in order that they, 
too, may make their selections. 

While this project is distinctly 
an Auxiliary affair, nevertheless 
members of the Legion and others 
interested in the veterans can make 
their contributions. Harold F. Col- 
lins, commander of Middlesex 
County Council, urges all posts of 
The American Legion within Mid- 
dlesex County to assist their Aux- 
iliary units in making this year’s 
shop a success. Middlesex County 
alone is called upon to prepare 
about 4700 gifts for Bedford Hos- 
pital. It is a large order, hut one 
that can he tilled, especially if the 
Legion posts of the county get to- 
gether and assist their Auxiliary 
unit. 

The tentative dates for the Bed- 
ford Hospital Christmas Shop are 
from November 30 through Decem- 
ber 4. 

Commander Collins points out 
that each gift brings cheer and 
gladness to at least three persons; 
first, to the donor of the gift; then, 
to the hospitalized veteran who is 
permitted to send the gift to his 
loved one, and then, to the recipient 
of the gift. These gifts cost so lit- 
tle, about one dollar each, and yet 
— realize the value in the matter 
of cheering and rehabilitation of 
the hospitalized veterans. 

Prominent Legionnaire 
Hospitalized 

John II. McCarthy, formerly a 
member of the Winchester Board 
of Public Health and for many 
years a very active member of 
Winchester Post No. 97, The Amer- 
ican Legion, is a patient at the 
Boston Veterans Hospital, 150 
South Huntington avenue, Boston, 
where he will undergo surgery. 
Jack, as he is called, should re-

and Mrs. Hilton had dinner with 
Mrs. Hilton’s son, Stillman, who 
has just received his Master’s de- 
gree from Columbia and joined the 
staff of the Brooklyn Library sys- 
tem, second largest system in the 
country. 

After leaving New Orleans they 
stopped in Tucson to visit Mrs.

While on the Telepix set October 
19, Mrs. Eherle was introduced to 
Thurston Hall, one of the featured 
players, and during their conver- 
sation Mr. Hall said that her ac- 
cent, while very familiar, did not 
sound exactly like the Boston from 
which she was introduced as com- 
ing. 

When Mrs. Eherle admitted that 
she was not exactly from Boston, 
hut from a place nearby, Mr. Hall

of classroom work, a general as- 
sembly was held in the auditorium

SENIOR FORUM SPONSORS PLAY 

Although the spring vacation of 
the high school seems in the very 
distant future, Forum members 
are already taking advantage of | 
every opportunity to earn money 
for their annual spring vacation 
trip, which this year will be a eon- | 
ference. 

Indicative of the interest the j 
various church organizations take 
in the projects of the young peo- 
ple is the cooperation of the Parish 
Players, who have each year gra- 
ciously allowed the Forum to take 
over the sale of tickets to the 
Thursday night performance of one 
of their plays, and use the profits 
toward expenses of the spring trip. 
This yenr the Forum is sponsoring 
the Thursday night performance of 
the fall production, “The Impor- 
tance of Being Earnest,” by Oscar 
VV ilde, to be presented on Novem- 
ber 19, 20 and 21. 

In charge of the sale of tickets 
for the Thursday night, November 
19, performance are Betsy Lathrop 
and Dotty Pratt, assisted by the 
rest of the spring conference com- 
mittee: Nancy Donaghey, Richard 
Emerson, Brad Johnson, Bill Ross 
and Betsy Sargent. During the cof- 
fee hour, pouring at the two tables 
will be Mrs. Dwight L. Cart, Mrs. 
Richard L. Emerson, Mrs. Harold 
J. McKinley and Rev. Almeda C. 
Vickery. Acting as hosts and host- 
esses will be Mr. and Mrs. Allen O. 
Eaton, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas M. 
Hill, Dr. and Mrs. Ross Cunning- 
ham, and Mr. and Mrs. Ralph H. 
Swan. Buddy McKinley will take 
tickets at the door and Renny John- 
ston will keep a watchful eye on 
the coats in the hall. 

“The Importance of Being Ear- 
nest,” one of the most entertaining 
of Oscar Wilde’s plays, should have 
a big attraction for young and old 
and an early reservation is advis- 
able, so do not delay in calling Bet- 
sy Lathrop, Winchester 6-0126, or 
Dotty Pratt, Winchester 6-0479.

HALLOWEEN 
GENERALLY QUIET HERE 


Police and firefighters character- 
ize Winchester’s Hallowe’en as very 
quiet, and especially not witnessing 
much malicious mischief by com- 
parison with many other commu- 
nities. 

There were individual instances 
of serious mischief, such as throw- 
ing smoke bombs into houses on 
Seneca road and Swan road, and 
throwing one of the bombs through 
the window of a house on Oneida 
road. 

Complaints of stealing and 
breaking ornamental pumpkins at 
a home on Seneca road were made 
to the police, and a house on Church 
street was sputtered with green 
paint, another home on Wildwood 
street being daubed with red paint 
by way of variation. 

Street lights were broken on 
New Meadows road, and the cellar 
screens were pulled from a house 
on Central street. The window of 
a house on Swantun street was 
broken with a cement missile. 

The auxiliary police assisted the 
regular force on Hallowe’en and 
Auxiliary Captain Herbert T. 
Wadsworth picked up two West 
Side hoys on Swan road who had 
with them a box of the fuel tab- 
lets for model airplanes the young- 
sters were using for smoke bombs. 

The hoys and their fathers were 
talked to at headquarters by Lt. 
O’Connell, and the police say any 
use of these fuel tablets as smoke 
bombs will be prosecuted. 

The police got a tip that a house 
on Grove street was to he raided 
by a group of young mischief mak- 
ers, hut the appearance uround the 
house of police and auxiliary po- 
lice forestalled what easily could 
have been a serious situation, ac- 
cording to the advance plans learn- 
ed by the police. 

The only arrest in Winchester 
Hallowe’en was that of u Medford 
man for drunkenness.

fered by Harvard University to 
promising Ph. D.’s in the Depart- 
ment of English. This is the third

ers, will he added to the program. 
It is expected that the farm teams 
will be issued T-shirts and caps and 
all necessary safety equipment. 

Organizing o f personnel t o 
handle this phase of the program 
was discussed and was placed in the 
hands of a committee with George 
Neville as Chairman. It is expect- 
ed that most of the personnel will 
he recruited from the fathers of the 
boys who will play on the farm 
teams plus other interested men 
who have not had an opportunity to 
work with the Little League teams.

this phase should contact Mr.

On Thursday, November 12th, the 
Winchester Staff and Key Society 
will hold its first general meeting 
of the winter season. The meeting 
will be held to discuss which mu- 
sical show the society will perform

hut extremely important hack

ested in finding a new soprano lend 
to take the place of Miss Genevieve 
Crovo who has been signed by the 
Messrs. Rodgers and Ilnmmerstein

INTERESTING FIGURES 

The Star learns unofficially that 
the remodelling and equipping of 
the Junior High School to house 
a four-year high school and the 
construction of six additional rooms 
at the Parkhurst School will cost 
the town in the neighborhood of 
one million eight hundred thousand 
dollars. Since most of this sum 
will have to he raised by a bond 
issue, the transaction will come 
close to reaching the debt limit, be- 
yond which the town can not bor- 
row without special permission. 

Unofficially also it has been es- 
timated that the proposed takings 
from the Excess and Deficiency Ac- 
count will reduce that fund about 
as far it will be prudent to go. 
Raises in the tax rate for next 
year up to five dollars are being 
freely predicted, with the school 
program alone being responsible 
for about three dollars.

George W. Reay of Boston, 58,

liam Henchey in the District Court

Miss Driscoll of Filene’s security 
department and placed under arrest

several times before his conviction 
yesterday.

OLD MAP ON DISPLAY 


Realtor Bill Murray of the firm 
of Murray and Gillett has on dis- 
play in his office window on Thomp- 
son street an interesting copy of 
the original plan of the old Boston 
and Lowell Railroad when it was 
laid out through Winchester in 
1836. 

The map once owned by Mr. Mur- 
ray’s grandfather, Martin Murray, 
a veteran of the Civil War, was the 
work of Engineer James F. Bald- 
win and drawn by Henry C. Waters. 
The copy was made in 1893 by H 
P. Yothen. 

Winchester in 1836 was of course 
a part of Woburn and such districts 
as Symmes Corner and Black Horse 
Village were used to designate 
parts of the community. Mystic 
Lakes were called on the map Med- 
ford Ponds and the old Lowell 
Canal route is clearly shown. 

Old timers especially will find 
the map well worth a trip to the 
Murray and Gillett office to see. 


BELMONT HERE TOMORROW 


Winchester High meets Belmont 
tomorrow afternoon on Manchester 
Field with the kickoff scheduled for 
1 :30. 

Belmont has had a poor season 
so far as winning football goes, 
having hut a single victory to its 
credit thus far. The Red and Blue 
however has always managed to 
give Winchester trouble, no matter 
how weak its team may appear at 
game time, and Coach Knowlton 
isn’t underestimating the visitors.

Loyalty Sunday 


Homer Emerson Pendleton, 
known to many in Winchester 
through his long association with 
the Economy Market in the center, 
died early Friday morning, Novem- 
ber 6, at his home, 109 Cambridge 
J street, after a long and painful ill- 
ness. 

Mr. Pendleton was the son of 
Mrs. Susan (Springer) and the 
late Joseph Brooks Pendleton. His 
father, for many years the dean of 
college football officials, was known 
and loved by more college and 
private school football fans than 
any other official in the east. 

Mr. Pendleton, known familiarly 
as “Homer”, was born November 
14, 1911, in New Rochelle, N. Y. 
He came with his family to Win- 
chester the next year and grew up 
in town, attending the Winchester 
schools. For a time he worked in 
the old Hutchinson’s Market, then 
located in the building adjacent to 
the White Building on Main street 
facing the railroad crossing, and 
later he was for 25 years employed 
at the Economy Market, remaining 
there until ill health forced his re- 
tirement in March of 1952. 

His friendliness and willingness 
to serve won him the liking, not 
only of the Economy patrons but of 
bis associates at the market and 
those who knew him around the 
center. This liking grew to a pro- 
found respect and admiration on 
the part of those who knew the 
courageous fight he waged against 
the malady with which he was af- 
flicted and the uncomplaining 
patience with which he endured 
thv suffering he was called upon to 
bear. 

A close follower of sports, Mr. 
Pendleton was a great Bruins and 
Red Sox rooter, being especially 
fond of hockey and a regular at- 
tendant at the games in the Garden 
as long as his health would permit. 
His knowledge of hockey and base- 
ball statistics was surprisingly 
wide and accurate. 

He leaves bis mother, who is 
seriously ill at her home, and two 
sisters. Miss Dorothy S. Pendleton 
of Winchester and Mrs. John Rob- 
ertson of Lowell. 

The funeral was held Sunday 
afternoon at the late residence with 
the Rev. Dr. Dwight L. Carl minis- 
ter of the First Congregational 
Church, officiating. Burial was in 
the family lot in Milton Cemetery. 


GEOkGE r. BARNSTEAD 

George R. Barnstead, for many 
years publisher «»f the Stoneham 
Independent, died Tuesday, No- 
vember 2. His passing removed a 
figure long well known in the local 
weekly newspaper field. 

Born in Watertown in 1873, Mr. 
Barnstead went with his family to 
Stoneham in ’78, his father at 
that time entering the employ of 
the Stoneham Independent, then 
run by Whittier Brothers, from 
whom the late Theodore P. Wilson, 
i father of the present editor and 
i publisher of the Winchester Star, 

1 bought the Star in 1880. Up to 
then the Star had been an offshoot 
of the Independent with a very lim- 
ited circulation in Winchester. 

The late Mr. Barnstead, as a 
young man, became associated with 
his father in the newspaper busi- 
1 ness, buying the Stoneham Indc- 
i pendent in 1909. He continued to 
publish the paper until succeeded 
by his son, G. Richard Barnstead, 
present publisher of the puper. 

Mr. Barnstead was a veteran of 
the Spanish- American War, return- 
ing from Puerto Rico with the rank 
of captain. He served three terms 
as a Stoneham selectman, was for 
12 years a member of the Stone- 
ham hook and ladder company and 
was a trustee of Lindenwood Cem- 
etery and a director of the Stone- 
ham Cooperative Bank. 

Mr. Barnstead was a widower. 
Besides his sons, he leaves three 
grandchildren and a brother, Sum- 
ner E. Barnstead. 

Funeral services were held last 
Friday afternoon at the First Con- 
gregational Church in Stoneham. 


WINCHESTER CHURCHES 
PLAN LOYAITY SUNDAY 

CLIMAX TO THIRD UNITED 
CHURCH CANVASS 

Loyalty Sunday, November 15, 
will be marked in Winchester with 
special dedicated sermons in all 
Protestant Churches, and followed 
by individual home visits to all 
church members and friends. This 
will bring to a successful climax the 
town’s 1953 United Church Can- 
vass, and will close the third 
straight year in which the principal 
Protestant Churches have joined 
hands in their all-important job of 
fund-raising. 

The United Canvass co-ordinates 
the efforts of all the principal Pro- 
testant Churches toward creating 
an awareness and an appreciation 
of the job the churches are doing to 
build a better community. At the 
same time it seeks to arouse a feel- 
ing of pride and responsibility on

MALLARD KILLED BY BOY 


Early Wednesday afternoon the 
police were notified that two men 
had shot and killed a duck in the 
Aberjona near Davidson Park and 
were heading for Woburn. Officer

His father was notified. 


PATRICK J. QUILL 


Patrick J. Quill, a retired rail- 
road man and lifelong resident of 
the town, died suddenly Monday 
morning, Nov. 9, at his home, 6 
Westley street. He was 81 years 
old and had been in poor health for 
some time. 

Mr. Quill was the son of Michael, 
and Ellen (Sullivan) Quill. He was

and grew up in town, being edu- 
cated in the Winchester schools. 
For more than 25 years until his 
retirement he was freight agent at 
the old Boston & Maine freight

street. He was a member of St. 
Mary’s Holy Name Society and of

bridge; and eight grandchildren. 

The funeral was held Thursday

Home with solemn requiem high 
mass celebrated at St. Mary’s 
Church. Interment was in Calvary 
Cemetery. 


TIME FOR DECISION 

was last November. We voted overwhelmingly for LOWER TAXES and 
sensible expenditure of OUR tax money. 

Our Mate taxes are now — Wages 2 Z± r A , Annuities lbV.7% Taxable gains 
6 r /r , Interest ami Dividends 6' r — Above totals PLl S 20' i General Fund. PLUS 
37c old age, PLUS gasoline tax, tobacco tax. etc., PLUS. Can we dare hope for 
a reduction? 

('.an we afford to let our state officials spend 6-10 million dollars to keep open 
60 FEET OF STREET when they could build 30-50 MILES of bighwuys for the 
same money? 

Highways can be put OYER or UNDER the railroad tracks for less than 
two million dollars. 

W ith positive savings of millions of dollars should we not insist that the 
Department of Public Works work out plans to make this saving? 

Regardless of plan, with recession years ahead, IS THIS THE T IME for 
this type of project? 

The overhead railroad plan is nowhere near complete, even today, but as 
proposed so far will cost Winchester nearer 8350,000 than $100,000. CAN W K 
AFFORD IT? 

WE MUST PROVIDE SCHOOLS. Our immediate school building pro- 
gram will cost approximately: 


Converting Junior High to Senior High 
Converting Senior High to Junior High 
Addition to Parkhurst School 


$1 .000,000 
400,000 
225,000 

$2,525,000 


Ibis program will necessitate spending ubovr It inrlirstrr's present ability 
to borrow. 


Winchester tax rate 1053 
Fair estimate 1054-1055 


$42.00

MRS. SOPHIE N. NICHOLS 


Mrs. Sophie Neighbour Nichols 
died suddenly November 6, at the 
home of her daughter, Mrs. Will- 
hurt E. Kinsley. 

Mrs. Nichols had been a resident 
of Winchester for the past 25 years 
during which time she had been 
active in the Church of the Epi- 
phany. 

Services were held at the Kimball 
Chapel on Monday, the Rev. John 
W. Ellison, officiating. 

Interment will be in Elmira, N. Y. 


to 7 p. m. 

Warrants have been distributed 
and the voters will be asked to en- 
dorse or reject the action of the 
delegates at the recently-held spe- 
cial town meeting, approving the 
overhead plan submitted by the 
Selectmen and authorizing the Se- 
lectmen, or chairman of the Se- 
lectmen, to enter into definite 
agreements with the Common- 
wealth of Massachusetts through 
its Department of Public Works, 
or with any other parties in inter- 
! est, which will provide for the eli- 
mination of the crossing in the cen- 
ter and for the construction of a 
traffic bypass around the center. 

The referendum vote will also 
cover the appropriation by the spe- 
cial town meeting of $190,000, to 
be taken from the Excess and De- 
ficiency Account to pay the town’s 
share of the project, this sum to be 
expended for land damages. 

The vote of precinct delegates at 
the town meeting was 143 in favor 
and 23 in opposition. A majority 
vote only is necessary on the refe- 
rendum. 


Most Winchester residents have 
an idea of what the overhead rail- 
road tracks will look like as they 
course through town on their great 
wall of earth and faced stone. The 
general structure of the plan has 
hocn well publicized and more or 
j loss accurate pictures of bridges 
that will carry the rails through 
I the center of the town have been 
j shown. 

What hasn\ been so well pub- 
licized are the temporary tracks, on 
which trains will run while the 
great wall is being built, and since 
these tracks will be in use for about 
two years the Star has felt that 
their location and ramifications are, i 
or should be, of interest. 

Consequently your Star reporter 
visited the Engineer’s office at the 
town hall this week nnd with the 
valuable, nay absolutely essential, 
assistance of former Mayor Nichol- 
as H. Fitzgerald, one of the better 
informed tub-thumpers for the 
overhead plan, attempted to trace 
the progress of the temporary 
roadbed through town. 

As shown on the scale map of 
the overall plan the temporary 
tracks switch from the main line at 
a point about 2,000 feet below Ba- ‘ 
eon street and parallel the regular 
tracks northward, crossing the 
Aberjona on a trestle about 50 feet 
westerly (toward the Parkway) 
from the present tracks as they 
cross the river over the culvert 
just below Wedgemere Station. 
There will be at this point about 
35 feet between the main and tem- 
porary tracks. 

Continuing, the temporary tracks 
pass through the location of the 
westerly wall of the present Wedge- 
mere station with the inbound, or 
most westerly of the temporary , 
tracks about 13 feet from the west- 
erly wall of the station as it now 
stands. The station will of course , 
have to be relocated to the west- 
ward while the temporary tracks 
are in use. 

The temporary tracks as they 
head for Winchester Station are 
located inside the granite wall of 
the old Ginn Estate ofT Bacon 
street, now owned by William C. 
Cusack, being about 35 feet inside 
the wall at a point about opposite 
the former Ginn stable and 18 feet 
from the easterly side of the rail- 
road wall at the Powers property. 
The railroad wall which continues 
from the Ginn wall sets in about 
20 feet from the higher wall of the 
former Ginn property. j

setts. 

Sherman has been an active

with the “Degree of Chevalier”. 
This is an honorary degree con- 
ferred “for outstanding and mark- 
ed DeMolay activity and labor,” by 
the Grand Council. 

Sherman was installed as State

NATIONAL BOOK WEEK 

AT THE LIBRARY 



The thirty-fifth annual celebrn- ! 
tion of National Book Week will 
take place next week in most of the 
nation’s p u h 1 i c libraries and 
schools. “Reading is Fun” is the 
slogan for the week. 

The Children’s Room at tin* Win- 
chester Public Library will he gay 
with posters and new hooks. New 
hooks for children will he on dis- 
play during the week and will not 
he issued for home use until the 
following week. This will give 
parents, teachers, children and all 
interested people an opportunity to 
see a fine? collection of children's 
hooks. It is suggested by the 
Children’s Librarian, Miss Eliza- 
beth Russell, that ideas for Christ- 
mas gifts may he found in this 
book display. 

Highlight of Book Week 

Mrs. Ann e Molloy, a former 
Winchester resident and author of 
children’s hooks will speak at the 
Winchester Public Library Friday 
afternoon, November 20th at 3:, ‘10 
p. m. in the Art Gallery. Mrs. 
Molloy is a graduate of Mount 
Holyoke College and is now a resi- 
dent of Exeter, New Hampshire 
where her husband teaches at Phil- 
lips Exeter. 

It is recalled with interest that 
Mrs. Molloy wrote her first book, 
“Coast Guard to Greenland” while 
a resident of Winchester. She 
used the resources of the Public 
Library and did some of her actual 
writing here. Other popular chil- 
dren’s hooks written by Mrs. Mol- 
loy include: “Dccky’s Secret”, “A 
Bird in Hand”, “Shooting Star 
Farm”, “The Pigconeers”, and a 
new one just published, “The Mon- 
key’s Fist”. 

Through the courtesy of Hough- 
ton Mifflin Company, Publishers, 
ten original illustrations from Mrs. 
Molloy’s newest book, “The Mon- 
key’s Fist” are on display in the 
Children’s Library. 

The special program for Friday 
afternoon of Book Week at which 
time Mrs. Molloy will speak is for 
boys and girls of the fourth, fifth, 
and sixth grades so it is hoped that 
parents and teachers will direct 
children of that age group to the 
library for this special event next 
week.

WINCHESTER, 28; BELMONT, 7 

Displaying an overwhelming of- 
fensive superiorly and a tight de- 
fense, Winchester easily defeated 
Belmont High School, 28 to 13, at 
Manchester Field in a postponed 
game, Monday, November 9th. 
With the exception of a startling 
80 yard runlmck of a kickoff from 
his own 2u yard lint* by Wilkins <>f 
Belmont, after fumbling the ball, 
Belmont was able to make little 
headway against the rugged for- 
ward line presented by the Red and 
Black team. Incidentally, Wilkin’s 
long run was mude against the 
Seconds, who got mixed up on their 
defensive work and lost sight of the 
ball until it was too late to stop 
the speedy Belmont carrier. 

Rome indication of thu one-sided- 
ness of the game may be indicated 
by the fact that Winchester made 
eleven first downs to Belmon’t 4; 
gained 193 yards on the ground to 
Belmont’s 51; put the ball in play 
from scrimmage 61 times to Bel- 
mont’s 39, and put together four 
different sustained drives for touch- 
downs of 62 yards, 42 yards, 65 
yards and 33 yards respectively, 
with one 17 yard pass sandwiched 
into the 65 yard drive. 

Neither team resorted to the air 
as often ns one might have expect- 
ed from the score. Winchester com- 
pleted one for 17 yards and one for 
five yards and a touchdown. Bel- 
mont completed one pass for 14 
yards and missed on two other tries. 
Winchester failed to complete four 
passes. 

Belmont’s first score came as the 
direct result of a blocked punt 
which was picked up by Bob Butler 
and carried to the Winchester six 
inch line. On the next play Belmont 
scored. The other score came, as 
previously stated on a runbuck of 
80 yards against the seconds. 

Winchester’s offensive play in 
the 1st half was dominated by Big 
Mike Murphy, who lugged the ball 
for 61 yards on 9 plays, besides 
running back a kickoff for 23 yards. 
Murph was bitting the line with 
power. His work in backing up the 
line was better than anything he 
lias shown before. 

The Seconds played all but a few 
minutes of the entire second half 
and gave a good account of them- 
selves. outside of the one slip-up 
when Belmont scored on a kick-off. 
Ross, at quarterback, bandied the 
team well and tossed a short pass 
over the line to Nelson for a score 
from the five yard line. 

Bob Haggerty played a rugged 
game at his halfback position, but 
was removed from the game with 
a nose injury after being stopped 
on a bard drive over left guard for 
a first down. 

Again as in the Reading game, 
Joe Bellino’s favorite pitchout-end- 


i un-plnv was stopped by lack of 
good blocking nnd by evident scout- 
ing of the play by the Relnmnt 
scouts. In the Belmont stands ono 
could hear cries of “Stop Bcllino!” 
whenever Winchester bad the ball. 
And they stopped Joe, but not until 
be bad fought for every inch he 
could get. 

And once again the replacements! 
had a chance to get some real ox - j 
perienee. That will will mean a lot j 
when Winchester meets Wnkefield i 
tomorrow. Wakefield’s game was 
canceled, and no one can say 
whether they will profit or lose by 
not playing for two weeks. But 
don’t sell Winchester short on that 
game at Wakefield. 

Due to the postponement, only a 
. mall crowd saw the game. Bel- 
mont’s band did a fine job between 
the halves and Winchester’s 
| Tumblers delighted the crowd with 
their clever performance. 

Just a reminder that only 75 cent 
tickets will be on sale at the game 
at Wakefield tomorrow. Tickets for 
adults, school children nnd kids are 
on sale at Ifevey’s nnd McCorm- 
ack’s.

Paul W. Dillingham, Jr., known 
during bis football and track days 
at Winchester High as “Pete”, is 
today receiving the commission of 
Ensign of the Line at Newport 
Naval Station, Newport, R. I. Ho 
lias been ordered to proceed to 
Guam for 18 months for his initial 
duty as a Navy officer. 

“Pete” went to Harvard from 
Winchester High, and there had a 
brilliant career as a star diver on 
the varsity swimming team. He 
showed football promise as a back 
on the freshman eleven, scoring 
against Yale, but at the insistance 
of the swimming coach at Harvard 
lie gave up football for swimming. 

During his four years as a col- 
lege diving competitor he was de- 
feated once in a dual meet, and he 
defeated the same Yale diver four 
years in a row, including their 
freshman competition. He was se- 
lected as a member of the All- 
American Collegiate Swimming 
Teams of 1951 and 1953. 

Ensign Dillingham will spend 
Thanksgiving with his parents, Lt. 
Col. and Mrs. Paul W. Dillingham, 
and bis sisters, Ann and Deborah, 
at Fort Hamilton, N. Y. They will 
see him off from LaGuardia Air 
Field November 26 on the first leg 
of his journey to Guam.

We do hope that no offense is 
taken from this column for it is 
not the intentions of this writer to 
humiliate anyone. 

In last week’s column we stated 
the 8 different styles of bowling 
but one of the most important ones 
was omitted. 

No. 9 Atlas 

One who has to have a ball in 
each hand to balance himself. The 
most prominent of this type bowl- 
ers are Hokie and “Creeper” Gene. 

The team which is in second place, 
Holy Cross, is breathing down the 
nocks of the leaders. This team 
consists of Babe Tofuri, Hokie Pro- 
copio, Dominic and Peter Provin- 
zano, Richie Penta and Orlando 
Sirbrizzio. 

The reasons why they are in sec- 
ond place are as follows: “Babe” 
has to bowl good to hold that fam- 
ous Tofuri name in the limelight. 
“Two ball” Hokie prominent and 
good will citizen of Winchester 
Soft Ball fame, Dominic well known 
man about town and great telephone 
receiver. Pete his brother well 
known masseur, Richie one of our 
new fighting “B. D.’s” who carries 
that fight to the howling alleys. 
Last but not least “Ollie” man of 
very few words, well liked, a great 
listener.

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP 


The Junior High Fellowship of 
the First Congregational Church 
will meet at 4:30 p. m. on Sunday, 
November 15, in the Junior High 
Room. 

The discussion on “Our Church, 
What Goes Into It?” will be in 
charge of Sally Scott and Peter 
Gowing. In charge of refresh- 
ments are Gretchen Mueller, Tim 
Reynolds and Howard Bates, Jr. 
Also on the program is a service

ings to be filled with candy for the 
Boston City Missionary. 


Winchester goes to Wakefield 
tomorrow foi its annual football 
with Wnkefield High. A lot 

'b on this game, for Wakefield, 
unbeaten in six games, has been 
leading Class B and a win for the 
Scarlet will put it in a good position 
to cop the division title. 

Everybody seems to think Wake- 
held is a shoo-in to heat Winches- 
ter. primarily because the Scarlet 
13 undefeated nnd because it has 
;< 1 UpOtl only once all 
season. Winchester’s detractors 
point to the Indians’ defeat at the 
hands of Class C Concord and the 
f ft et that every team on their 
schedule has scored against the 
locals. 

As far as the scoring is concern- 1 
od Winchester undoubtedly could 
have kept its opponents’ scoring 
Wft .V below what it has been if | 
Coach Knowlton had kept his first! 
string in more of the time. As for 
the Concord defeat, the Indians just 
hadn’t jelled in that first game of 
the season, against a veteran team 
and don’t forget there are not too ■ 
many Class B teams that could bent 
Concord on any one given day. 
They have beaten every Class B 
team they have played in recent 
years. 

Now let’s take a peak at mighty 
Wnkefield. Whom have they play- 
0( 1 ? Nothing too stout in the way 
opposition, Lexington, Stone- 1 
ham, Woburn. Danvers, Revere j 
and Melrose. This surely is no bet- i 
ter opposition than Winchester has 
faced. As a matter of fact the 
Scarlet hasn’t played two teams ns 
good as Concord nnd Watertown. 
Revere is woefully weak this year, 
yet Revere was the team that scored 
against Wakefield. 

Winchester and Wakefield have 
played two teams in common. ! 
Stoneham and Melrose. Wakefield i 
beat Stoneham 19-0 while Winches- 
ter won, 26-13. Winchester beat 
Melrose in a rugged game, 20-13. 
while Wakefield routed Melrose, 
34-0. That undoubtedly is one rea- 
son so many feel Wakefield will 
easily win on Saturday. 

Tn this connection it is interest- 
ing to get the reactions of the 
Stoneham and Melrose coaches. 
Tony DcTeso of Stoneham feels 
Wakefield will beat Winchester. 
Joe Austin of Melrose thinks Win- 
chester will win, and says frankly 
it was the physical beating his 
charges took from Winchester that 
accounted for the poor Melrose 
showing at Wakefield. Cerretani, 
Shimmins nnd Malone, three Mel- 
rose stars could ho used only spar- 
ingly in that game. 

A year ago Winchester beat 
Wakefield, 20-0. Giving Wakefield 
credit for improvement this season, 
and granted that Winchester does- 
n’t have any Serieka or Griffin in 
its backfield, the Star still does not 
feel that this year’s club is so far 
below last year’s team as to have 
no chance tomorrow.

We figure the game a toss-up. 
Surely it will he no cinch for either 
team. Wakefield has a good line 
and some fast shifty backs. Win- 
chester has good backfield balance 
and a heavy line that at times has 
looked very good. Incidentally Tim 
Hennessey, 200 pound guard, will 
be in there against Wakefield. 

Wakefield, undefeated and scored 
on only once, is undoubtedly the 
favorite over once beaten and once 
!tied Winchester. It will, however, 
: have to be a lot better than it was 
when it beat Danvers, 7-0, to out-

may find the outright cancellation

WINCHESTER COLLEGE CLUB 
ART GROUP 

The Art Group of the Winchester 
College Club was not scheduled to 
start meetings until January. But, 
it seemed unfortunate that any 
group studying ai t, even an embryo 
one, should miss the unusual Jap- 
anese exhibit offered by the 
Museum of Fine Arts beginning the 
15th of Nov. Consequently, plans 
have been made for the Art Group 
to visit this exhibit on Nov. 20th. 
At 2:00 p. m. Mr. Jairo Harada, 
liason officer of the Tokyo National 
Museum will speak on some aspect 
of the exhibit, following which the 
Art Group will view the exhibit it- 
self. 

If anyone needs transportation 
or can offer transportation for this 
trip she may call Mrs. Wm. Pearce, 
WI 6-1194-R. Those who have not 
already expressed an interest in 
the Group, but wish to do so are 
urged to call Mrs. George B. Heath, 
WI 6-2731. 


D. A. R. 


Arthur J. Connell, National Com- 
mander of the American Legion has 
proclaimed the period of November 
11, (Armistice Day) to November 
26, (Thanksgiving Day) to be 
known as American Legion Weeks, 
during which period every Post of 
the organization is called upon to 
embrace a membership campaign 
known as “Knock On Every Door 
For ’54”. 

In issuing his proclamation the 
National Commander said, in part, 
“Our power is greater than we 
know. Let us assert that power 
with vigor and courage, in devotion 
to the ideals for which we fought 
and so many of our comrades died. 
God willing, we shall add new and 
brighter stars to the crown of 
American Legion achievement”. 

Francis J. “Joe” Hart, Jr., Senior 
Vice Commander of Middlesex 
County and chairman of its mem- 
bership committee urges every 
Post within the county to join in 
this membership campaign. He 
believes that as the members of the 
various Posts “knock on every door 
for ’64” they will be voicing an ap- 
peal in behalf of every thinking 
American, — an appeal for the wel- 
fare of thousands of veterans who 
lie crippled or ill us a result of their 
sacrifices in this nation’s defense. 

He says “American Legion mem- 
bership is a living thing. It lives 
for our disabled veterans and their 
dependents. It lives for every 
needy or homeless child in America. 
It lives for every veteran. It lives 
for 4 God and Country’.”

Andy Lentine, one of Winches-

years veteran of the football wars 
at Boston College, assisted Wendell

The Star opposes the abolition 
of Winchester’s grade crossing by 
raising the tracks through town. 
This will hardly in* news to those 
who have been reading the paper 
for any length of time. We have 
always opposed raising the tracks 
and even the great weight of official 
opinion in favor hasn’t caused us 
to change our mind. We have not, 
however, had much to say about the 
matter recently, feeling that after 
the action of the 1952 and ’53 town 
meetings, and the referendum 
which followed the vote of the 
meeting last April, no good purpose 
would be served by continuing to 
harp upon the subject as it stood 
then. We would have been content 
to let matters take their course 
now, leaving the arguments pro and 
con to those in favor of the great 
wall through Winchester and its 
opponents, hut the argument now- 
being advanced .by the overhead 
crossing proponents that those op- 
posing the project by means of a 
referendum are departing from the 
democratic processes of good gov- 
ernment prompts us to make one 
more observation. From the time 
the arguments for abolishing the 
grade crossing began to crystalize 
into the proposal to raise the tracks 
to this end the chairmen of Select- 
men have assured those opposed to 
the plan that a meeting would have 
to he called for the purpose of hav- 
ing the town appropriate money for 
land damages before a final vote 
on the matter could be taken. At 
a meeting in March of 1952 Mr. 
Freeman asked whether a meeting 
had to be held to appropriate money 
for damages before work could 
commence on the overhead tracks, 
and Mr. Lyman, then chairman of 
the Board of Selectmen, said that 
such a meeting would have to he 
held and the town would have an- 
other chance to decide upon the 
i»lan when the necessary funds for 
damages came up for consideration. 
These words stressed are impor- 
tant. At an adjourned session of 
the March town meeting of 1952 an 
article came up for consideration by 
the precinct members to establish a 
committee of three favorable to an 
alternate plan for the abolition of 
the grade crossing with power to 
expend part of the unexpended 
balance of a grade crossing appro- 
priation made in 1944 for study 
and technical advice to prepare an 
alternate plan of abolition and 
present it to the town at the earli- 
est possible date. Mrs. Woodside, 
one of those who inserted the ar- 
ticle in the warrant, consented to 
its being indefinitely postponed, but 
before this was done she was satis- 
fied by Mr. Greer, then chairman 
of the Board of Selectmen, that the 
Selectmen would call a meeting at 
which final plans for the overhead 
with costs, and the cost of land 
takings would be submitteed for 
approval by the voters. Again the 
stressed words are important. 
Subsequently a referendum was 
held on the vote of t lie 1953 town 
meeting authorizing the Select- 
men to cooperate with state and 
county officials to bring about the 
abolition of the grade crossing by 
raising the tracks. The referen- 
dum supported the town meeting 
members by a decisive margin, hut 
it should he remembered that at 
the time there was no definite 
plan for acceptance nor cost avail- 
able, either for the entire plan or 
land damages. As a matter of fact 
at the 1952 meeting Mr. Lyman 
stated that the cost for land dam- 
ages, if the temporary tracks went 
to the east of the present road-lied, 
would be about $63,365.00. But 
this is beside the point. What is 
important is that until the recently 
held special town meeting oppo- 
nents of the overhead plan for abo- 
lition of the grade crossing had no 
finished plan presented for their I 
approval, nor definite cost given 
them for land damages or for tin* 
entire plun, which hud in the in- ' 
terim been altered to include a div , 
ersionnry highway, one of the 


! things for which opponents of the 
overhead plan of abolition have al- 
ways stood. So it would seem to 
the Star, at least, that nt the spe- 
cial town meeting for the first time, 
h specific plan of abolition nnd 
definite (we hope) costs were pre- 
sented, as promised by Mr. Ly- 
nmn and Mr. Greer in their capa- 
cities as chairmen of their Boards 
of Selectmen. The meeting was 
called for but one purpose, to con- 
sider definite* commitment to the 
overhead plan and to appropriate 
money for land damages. The dele- 
gates voted by an overwhelming 
majority of those present nnd vot- 
ing to authorize the Selectmen to 
m a k e definite agreements to 
abolish the crossing by raising the 
tracks and to appropriate the $190,- 
000 necessary for land damages. 

| Those who drew* up our limited 
form of town meeting wrote into 
it the referendum clause as a 
check against important questions 
being decided by too small a num- 
ber of the town’s voters. There- 
for we see nothing undemocratic 
in those dissatisfied with a vote of 
town meeting members invoking a 
referendum to make sure that the 
town as a whole agrees or dis- 
agrees. That is what has been 
done in this instance. We can see 
no flouting of the democratic pro- 
cesses in so doing. Perhaps we do 
not understand democracy at work! 
That could he, hut if we do, we feel 
strongly that the opponents of the 
overhead had, on the assurance of 
two Chairmen of Selectmen, the 
right to believe that the recently 
held special town meeting was call- 
ed to |fre sent for their approval 
final plans for the overhead and 
cost to the town. No one can deny 
that this special meeting is the first 
at which such costs have been pre- 
sented and more or less finished 
plans have been shown. Opponents 
of the plun do not feel that the vote 
of the precinct members is repre- 
sentative of the feeling of the en- 
tire town. They have consequently 
invoked a referendum as provided 
by our town meeting bylaw. The 
Star is glad that they have. It 
hopes that every one, eligible to 
vote and able- to do so, will cast his 
ballot on this important question 
which will affect the town material- 
ly for all time. So far nothing like 
a majority of the tow*n’s electorate 
has voted on the overhead tracks 
proposal. Let us have the thing 
really decided beyond argument this 
[ time! 


WINCHESTER TUBERCULOSIS 
COMMITTEE MEETING 

A review of thr activities for 
tuberculosis control being conduct- 
ed in Winchester through the Win- 
chester Tuberculosis Committee nnd 
an announcement of the coming 
1953 Christmas Seal Sale were 
presented by Mrs. Harlow Russell, 
chairman of the committee nt its 
recent meeting on October 23. 
Member* of the committee also in- 
clude Mrs. Franklin J. Lane, Treas- 
urer; Mrs. Richard J. Clark, Mrs. 
John I. Donovan, Mrs. Philip C. 
Efromson, Mrs. R. Darrell Harvey, 
Mrs. Henry Moffotte, Mrs. Sanford 
H. Moses, Jr., past chairman; and 
Mrs. William Spaulding. Among 
the programs being carried on in 
Winchester which Mrs. Russell re- 
viewed were chest X-rays for em- 
ployees in industries in town. As 
part of this current program for in- 
dustries, 600 X-rays were taken at 
the Boggs & Cobh Company when 
an X-ray van recently visited the 
company. 

Mrs. Russell also explained the 
scholarship funds which are avail- 
able for nurses as another part of 
the activities sponsored by the com- 
mittee. Through Mrs. Russell’s 
committee, a program is being con- 
ducted to provide scholarships for 
courses which will help school and 
public health nurses in their jobs. 

Mrs. Russell also announced nt 
the meeting that the 1953 Christ- 
mast Seal Sale will open on No- 
vember 16 with the mailing of 
Christmas Seals to all residents of 
Winchester. Through the Win- 
chester Tuberculosis Committee the 
Seals will be mailed to local resi- 
dents as part of the yearly distribu- 
tion of Christmas Seals by tubercu- 
losis associations throughout the 
country. 

In announcing the opening of this 
year’s Christmas seal sale, Mrs. 
Russell said, “If anyone does not re- 
ceive Christmas Seals in their mail 
during the week of November 16, 
they can get a supply at Ruth Por- 
ter’s Real Estate office at 33 
Thompson street. 

The next meeting of the Tuber- 
cujosis Committee was scheduled 
for November 16, with Mr. David 
Moxon, Executive Director of the 
Middlesex Health Association, the 
local tuberculosis association, as the 
Committee’s guest. 


FRIENDS OF WINCHESTER! 


QUESTIONS SKILLINGS BYPASS! 


Editor of the Star: 

The vote at the recent special 
town meeting approving the plan 
for changing the grade of the rail- 
road also authorized the cutting of 
a new highway through the town 
property known as the Skillings es- 
tate and the construction of a large 
traffic circle at Washington and 
| Mount Vernon streets, 
j This action greatly surprised me 
! in view of the fact that the Select* 
I men were authorized by a special 
' town meeting called for the purpose 
in June, 1943, to purchase this 
sightly property “as a site for a 
New Town Hall Building or other 
building for the public use”. The 
sum voted was $32,000.00 and the 
vote was unanimous. 

In my opinion this property 
should he used for the purpose for 
which it was purchased.

rowest point, passing through the 
present parking lot adjacent to the 
present inbound tracks nt tin sta- 
tion and light through the middle 
of the present Station building 
which will be temporarily moved 
back to occupy a part of the present 
parking lot behind the station. 

From the station the temporary 
tracks continue through the easter- 
i ly side of Common street toward 
the square, approximately 30 foot 
from the present inbound roadbed 
with a distance of from 20 to 25 
feet between the temporary in- 
bound, or westerly tracks, and the 
curb along the easterly side of the 
Common. The trees located on the 
common will not be disturbed by 
the location of the temporary 
tracks, but some seven or so trees 
on railroad property along the 
present tracks will have to he re- 
moved. 

At the junction of Common and 
Church streets in the center the 
temporary tracks will he 31 feet 
from the present inbound tracks 
and 15 feet from the present grano- 
lithic apron at the tip of the Com- 
mon where Church and Common 
streets meet. The removal of this 
apron, which seems likely, will in- 
crease this space to 27 feet and one 
way traffic to the station should he 
possible along Common street west 
of the temporary tracks. 

Through the center the tempor- 
ary tracks go to the west of the 
gate control and traffic tower, the 
outbound track being two feet 
from the tower at the nearest point. 
At the Shell Gas Station the tem- 
porary track cut through the 
present yard to a depth of 3fi feet 
and take 17 feet from the building. 
At the First National store the 
tracks go through the southeasterly 
part of the building to a depth of 
33 feet and at the parking lot the 
taking tapers from 33 feet to zero 
along a distance of 100 feet. There 
are practically no other takings at 
that point. 

The temporary tracks cross the 
Woburn loop at the rear of the First 
National Parking area and proceed 
northerly beside the present tracks 
approximately 29 feet from the 
present inbound rails. For the most 
part the temporary roadbed goes 
through Town of Winchester Park- 
land. At the culvert on Shore road 
the temporary tracks are located 
32 feet west of the culvert and will 
pass over the Aberjona at that 
point on a trestle. 

Continuing northerly the tem- 
porary tracks go past the freight 
yard off Summer street, using the 
existing siding tracks with a 
switchover at about the location of 
the one in use there. 

At Swanton street where the 
road is to be depressed, as Bacon 
street is to he lowered, the tem- 
oorary tracks will he eight feet 
from the present tracks and there 
are shown on the map tracks al- 
ready substantially in this location. 
From this point the temporary 
tracks veer toward the present 
tracks until they meet about 1,400 
feet north of Swanton street. 

No land takings are necessary 
at Bacon street, and there as at 
Swanton street the depressed road 
will be in the same location as the 
present road. 


At the Swanton street depression 
an access road is necessary for 
abuttors to the north of the road 
east of the tracks. For this pur- 
pose a trip of land 15 feet wide 
must be taken for a distance of 340 
feet from property owned by Stra- 
nieri, Marehesi. Maffio, Vozzella, 
I.uongo and McCarthy. On the 
southerly side of the road a retain- 
ing wall must be built below ground 
level to a width of two feet. Little, 
if any taking will be necessary in 
this location but Spruce street will 
become a dead-end street at Swan- 
ton street. 

To the west of the underpass 
there must be access highways on 
both sides of the street, takings on 
the southerly side varying in depth 
from 13 to 1 1 feet, and coming from 
land of Penta, Michienzi and Lynch. 
Takings on the northerly side vary 
from 8 to 10 feet and come from 
land of Mole, Bordinaro, Violante, 
Fitzgerald Fuel Company and the 
Aberjona Civic Association. An 
access roadway to the dump will go 
from Swanton street between the 
Fuel Company nnd Civic Associa- 
tion land. 

The map which the Star reporter 
looked at did not show the location 
of any temporary tracks beside 
those of the present Woburn loop, 
hut if there : . re to he temporary 
tracks there, ♦here would he little 
if any land taking. 

Other items of interest in con- 
nection with the overhead scheme 
is the construction of a traffic cir- 
cle in the center, 100 feet at its 
widest part from east to west and 
130 feet at the widest part from 
north to south. Westerly from the 
circle to the new sidewalk at Mc- 
Cormack’s Pharmacy will he 34 
feet, and five feet will he taken 
from the width of the present side- 
walk at McCormack’s, this taking 
widening to a depth of ten feet at 
Park street in front of the Hillside 
Paint and Wallpaper Company. 

At the Winchester Drug Com- 
pany corner a triangular piece is 
taken about 10 by 10 feet, including 
both the sidewalk and a part of the 
existing building. With the taking 
the roadway from the circle to the 
Winchester Drug sidewalk will he 
36 feet, and from the circle to the 
sidewalk at Lyceum Building in 
front of the Foley Office it will he 
33 feet. The sidewalk at Hevey’s 
corner will be 65 feet from the cir- 
cle. 

The new overhead tracks through 
the center will be about the same 
width as they are now. The stone 
wall of the overhead commences 
about 120 feet below the present 
Winchester Station and extends 
through the center to a point some 
300 feet north of the present cross- 
ing, or so it appears from the map. 
Beyond the extremities of the wall 
the tracks will he supported by fill. 

The street under the tracks at 1 
Winchester Station joining Com- 
mon street with Waterficld road 
will be 40 feet wide with a span of 
54 feet above the road to cover 
sidewalks. Chairman Greer of the 
Selectmen expects that this street 
will be of great value while the 
heaviest of the work is being done 
in the center, and points out that 
although the entire project will 
take some two years to complete, 
the area will not he torn up over 
its entire length during all of that 
time, it being the plan to proceed 
gradually with as little disruption 
to business and traffic as possible. 

With the tracks raised at Wedge- 
mere Station there will have to be 
retaining walls on both sides of 
Bacon street as it will be depressed, 
hut no access roads are needed 
there, though there will he an un- 
derpass for pedestrians at the sta- 
tion.

POLICE HELD ANNUAL BALL 

The usual large turnout was tit 
the town hall Monday evening for 
tlie annual concert and hall of the 
Winchester Police Relief Associ- 
ation. 

Six acts of vaudeville opened 
with Kenny and May, Jap tumblers 
and acrobats; followed by Elwin 
Shaw, “the honest pickpocket”; 
Harris and Shore, dance team; 
Lindy Doherty, “singing star” of 
Capitol records; Don Hooton, the 
"Broadway Cowboy”; and Edna 
and Leon, "European Novelty Sen- 
sations”. * 

Don Hooton doubled by acting as 
master of ceremonies and he filled 
this important role most accept- 
ably. Elwin Shaw had the assist - 
enee of several stooges from the 
audience who went to the stage to 
have their valuables removed from 
their persons with rediculous ease. 

Lindy Doherty proved very 
popular with his varied songs, and 
in fact the entire hill was one of 
the best seen at the town hall for 
some time. The George A. Hamid 
Office furnished the talent which 
was under the personal supervision 
of Jacy Collier, a favorite in Win- 
chester for some years. 

Music for the show was furnish- 
ed by Bill Crosby and his Orchestra, 
and the same musicians played 
most acceptably for dancing after 
the show. 

Chief Charles J. Hnrrold acted as 
Moor marshall for the dancing with 
Sgt. Edward F. Bowler as floor 
director and Officer Archie O’Con- 
nell as chief of aides. 

Officer John P. McHugh was 
chairman of the ball committee 
with Lt. Joseph J. Derro, treasurer. 

Officers of the Winchester Police 
Relief Association include: 

President, John F. Reardon 

Vice President, William T. Hag- 
gerty 

Treasurer, Lt. John J. Derro 

Secretary, Joseph L. Quigley 

Trustees, Chief Charles J. Har- 
rold, Sgt. Edward F. Bowler and

MONTICEI LO DUE 
FOR RENOVATION 

Historic Monticello, crammed by 
builder Thomas Jefferson with in- 
genious devices for comfort and 
convenience, will soon be fitted with 
two modern facilities air con- 
ditioning and central heating. 

The 180-year-old showplace is to 
be renovated from roof to cellar 
this fall. Basement rooms, includ- 
ing Jefferson’s renowned wine and 
beer cellars, will be restored for 
the first time. Work will be direct- 
ed by the Thomas Jefferson Memo- 
rial Foundation, which bought 
Monticello in 1023 and maintains it 
as a national shrine, says the Nat- 
ional Geographic Society. 

Sky-top Home 

Last year 200,000 visitors toured 
the house that was Jefferson’s home 
from 1770 until bis death in 1826. 
Located on a leveled mountain top, 
it looks down on Charlottesville, 
home of the University of Virginia 
which Jefferson founded, and the 
distant Blue Ridge Mountains. 

Jefferson spent 30 years build- 
ing, changing, adding to, and sub- 
tracting from stately Monticello, 
which means “little mountain’’ in 
Italian. His designs, derived from 
those of the Italian architect An- 
drea Palladio, helped introduce 
Roman classical architecture to 
America. 

Built of native red brick and tim- 
bers hewed on the property, Monti- 
cello boasts Roman-Doric porticos 
on both west and east fronts — one 
for receiving public figures and the 
other for family friends and guests. 
Three presidents — John Adams, 
James Madison and James Monroe 
— were among the mansion’s fre- 
quent house guests. 

Monticello has three stories and 
basement with a total of 35 rooms. 
Kitchens, servant quarters, stables, 
dairy and other utility rooms are in 
extensive basement wings, partial- 
ly buried under terraces and 
promenades which make them al- 
most invisible from both fronts. 

Many Innovations 

In the mansion’s 13 bedrooms 
there is not a single bedstead; al- 
coves provided with wall hooks for 
mattress supports of rope were de- 
vised by Jefferson. His own bed 
was in an alcove between study and 
bedroom. It was so rigged that it 
could he raised to the ceiling hy 
day, permitting him to walk be- 
tween the two rooms. 

Other Jeffersonian “gadgets” in- 
clude hidden stairways; folding 
glass doors that move in unison 
when only one is touched; dumb- 
waiters concealed in the dining 
room mantelpiece for direct two- 
way traffic with the wine cellar; an 
interior weather vane connected 
with one on the roof-top; and a 
clock than can be lead from inside 
or outside the house and marks the 
days of the week as well as the 
hour. 

Monticello also contains what are 
said to he the first storm windows 
ever used in America, and the 
countrys’ first parquet floors — 
lustrous 10-inch squares of rose- 
wood, satimvood, walnut and 
cherry. The library held almost 
10,000 volumes in 1814. Sold to 
Congress, it was the foundation of 
the present Library of Congress.

REMEMBER 

This Sunday is Loyalty Sunday. Speak- 
ing of finances, our guess is that Julius Fa- 
Rosa received as much money in about five 
days as some farmers have to work over 
one-half a life time for and never save in 
a whole lift* time. A local rector in 
Klsed, England said recently that he could- 
n’t understand why singer Johnnie Ray got 
S30.000.00 for two weeks for singing and 
crying when lie couldnt’ collect 661 *.06 
needed to repair his church. 

In our conception of values, the Church 
of Christ should be right on the top of 
the list. We do not want riches. We only 
ask that you give <»f your material store- 
house as God blesses you. Some people give 
without feeling a hit of sacrifice. Others 
actually have to cut corners when they 
pledge to the church. Sacrificial giving 
could solve every financial problem of the 
church. God measures your loyalty in one 
way hy what and how you give. 

Remember, the government makes n very 
liberal allowance up to 20' , and one of the 
main reasons is for your giving to the 
church, the "Greatest Hope For The 
World’’. Give to the extent that you may 
feel God’s sanction. The church asks for 
no more than enough to meet its nexsis.

WINCHESTER GRADE CROSSING 

the argi mknts answered 


Editor of the Stnr: 

The m Kuments against the plan 
for the abolition of the grade 
crossing R seems to me me based j 
solely on criticism and objection. | 
The opponents offer nothing con- , 
structivc; they have no different 
or better plan. The chief reasons 
which they give for voting against 
the plan now before us are stated 
below. 

First: The opponents say that 

there will be great inconvenience 
and disturbance during the period 
of construction, and that hardship 
will fall on numerous citizens 
whose property will he affected. 

It is comon knowledge that this 
happens hi most instances when an 
important public improvement is 
made. If similar arguments had 
prevailed in the past our sewer 
and water systems and many of 
our public school buildings would 
never have been constructed. It is 
of course unfortunate that changes 
must be made at Swanton street 
which will be detrimental to some 
of the residents there, but many 
of them will benefit by a wider and 
safer street. And it should be borne 
in mind that all those whose prop- 
erty is injured will he entitled un- 
der the law to just compensation. 

Second: The opponents say that 

schools should come first; that this 
appropriation may jeopardize our 
school building program. 

School building projects, to my 
own knowledge, have been on the 
agenda in Winchester ever since 
1918. Such projects involving large 
expenditures have been included on 
the Six-Year Program of Public 
Work: in every year since the pro- 
gram was first set up in 1939. In 
this town, whose population is 
bound to grow, we shall continually 
he fa ' -d with school building pro- 
jects. To await the day when no 
such expenditures are in prospect 
mean postponing the grade cross- 
ing abolition for all the forsee- 
able future — a prospect seriously 
prejudi* ial to the proper develop- 
ment «>f the center and wise plan- 
ing for the future of Winchester, 
a prospect discouraging to all for- 
ward looking citizens. 

Our financial house is now in or- 
der, thanks to the foresight of 
boards of selectmen, finance com- 
mittee .and planning boards. Now 
is the time to dispose of the grade 
crossing matter for all time, when 
we can do so at a relatively small 
cost which we are assured will not 
impair our ability to finance the 
school building projects immediate- 
ly in prospect. 

Third: The opponents say — 

"Let’s build that by-pass first and 
see if that won’t solve the prob- 
lem/’ 

The proposed by-pass under the 
complete abolition plan now pre- 
sented will cross the Skillings lot 
and intersect Main street at grade 
at a point near Blind Bridge street, 
passing underneath the main line 
and the Woburn branch of the ele- 
vated railroad. If it is not built ns 
a part of the abolition plan, of 
course it must cross the rail- 
road tracks either by means of 
bridges above the tracks or at 
grade. If by means of bridges, get- 
ting down to the present grade of 
Main street would require the con- 
struction of a bridge over Main 
street and a traffic circle on the 
west side of the street, with ap- 
proaches, and several expensive 
land takings would be necessary. 

If the by-pass were built at 
grade over the tracks, we would 
then have two more grade cross- 
ings on our hands, one at the high- 
way crossing over the main line of 
the railroad, and another at the 
crossing over the Woburn branch. 
These two additional grade cross- 
ings would compound the present 
nuisance and danger. Such a plan 
is unthinkable. And indeed it is ex- 
tremely unlikely that the State De- 
partment of Public Utilities and 
the County Commissioner would 
permit it. 

Moreover, if ihe town wishes to 
construct the by-pass independent- 
ly of the grade crossing abolition, 
the cost to us would be many times 
the $190,000 which we are now ask- 
ed to contribute toward the com- 
plete project, 
plete abolition project. 

Fourth: The opponents say that 
the plan is too expensive, and that 
the state is not justified in spend- 
ing so much money for a local pro- 
ject. 

A strange argument indeed. This 
improvement is not for Winchester 
alone; it is for the benefit of all 
the traveling public. This principle 
has been recognized ever since 
1890, when the first general statute 
of the Commonwealth providing 
for the abolition of grade crossings 
was enacted. Throughout the years 
public funds have always been used 
in part to defray the cost; and the 
contribution of the local munici- 
pality hus been relatively small, ne- 
ver more than ten per cent. 

It has been stated by the oppo- 
sition that Winchester is able to 
finance its own public improve- 
ments and should refuse to accept 
a "handout." But the taxpayers of 
Winchester have paid and will con- 
tinue to pay their part of the taxes 
for similar improvements, not only 
in Metropolitan Boston, but 
throughout the state. In plain jus- 
tice we are entitled to an allocation 
of funds for a long overdue aboli- : 
tion of a grade crossing which is 
conceded by state authorities to be, 
if not the most dangerous and ob- 
jectionable in the state, then next 
to it. 

Fifth: The opponents say that 

former plans should be revived and 
that more time is needed to reach 
a satisfactory solution. 

A revival of old plans will ac- 
complish nothing. During the last 
•17 years every conceivable plan 
has been studied. A tunnel for the 
railroad underneath the center, 
which to laymen would seem an at- 
tractive solution but which, inci- 
dentally, would require longer 
ramps or stairways, has been re- 
jected as not feasible by every 
qualified engineer who has studied 
it. The only practicable schemes 
of abolition in the opinion of Col- 
onel Moore, the town’s own engin- 
eering consultant, whose wide ex- 
perience and national reputation 
give weight to his judgment, and 
in the opinion of the state engin- 
eers, arc three in number: (1) an 


overhead bridge for a new highway 
north of the crossing, (a modified 
Kellaway plan),' (2> an overhead 
bridge for a new highway south 
of the crossing (a modified Yinal 
plan) and (3) an elevation of the 
railroad as now proposed. 

All three plans have been fully 
explained and publicized to the 
voters and citizens at public hear- 
ings, at town meetings, in the town 
reports and the Star. The first two 
have been rejected repeatedly. But 
for the benefit primarily of the 
newer voters a brief explanation 
may be in order. 

The scheme involving an over- 
head bridge to be built about 400 
feet north of the crossing would 
include a new highway across the 
Skillings lot and to Main street, 
but p; <\ ent-day state and federal 
construction standards would make 
necessary a traffic circle with ap- 
proaches in the vicinity of Elm- 
wood uvenue, Vine street and 
Wedge I’ond road, requiring about 
20 tukings of property, including 
the whole or parts of some 16 
buildings, most of which are resi- 
dences, and about half of the front 
lawn of the Congregational Church. 
It would result in injury to prop- 
erty owners of staggering propor- 
tions. It would involge the com- 
plete blocking off and closing of the 
present grude crossing. It would 
result in irreparable injury to the 
business center and great incon- 
venience to local inhabitants by 
reason of the long and circuitous 
routes necessary to pass from one 
side of the center to the other. 

The scheme involving an over- 
head bridge south of the crossing 
contemplates a bridge a few feet 
south of the Winchester railroad 
station. This plan also would re- 
quire the blocking ofT of the exist- 
ing crossing. It would make neces- 
ary the demolition of several busi- 
ness blocks and houses on Church 
street and Main street, a large traf- 
fic circle at Church street, and the 
construction of a new highway be- 
tween those two streets. The high- 
way would cross Manchester Field, 
the new athletic field, and the jun- 
ior high school athletic field, with 
embankments and approaches uti- 
lizing a large part of those areas. 
A less elaborate plan involving a 
bridge south of the center pro- 
posed in 191G was judicially con- 
sidered and rejected by the State 
Public Service Commission because 
it was so inconvenient and did not 
provide an adequate substitute for 
existing facilities. 

Sixth: The opponents say that 

the elevation of the railroad will 
"divide” the town and set up a 
wall between the east and west. 

Existing conditions, with the 
crossing blocked much of the time 
and no other means of passing, ex- 
cept at Bacon street or Swanton 
street, no matter what the emer- 
gency may be, constitute a division 
and a barrier far more real and 
more serious than an embankment 
with underpasses which will permit 
unobstructed passage at all times, 
not only at the present site of the 
crossing, but for good measure at 
a new and additional crossing place 
at Common street and Waterfield 
road. 

The oponents also paint a pic- 
ture of unsightly bridges and walls. 
The present grade crossing with its 
multiple gates, gate stands and 
control tower are not things of 
beauty; but we are assured, if such 
assurance in these days is neces- 
sary, that in the new construction 
attention will be paid to aesthetic 
features. The attractive appearance 
of bridges and walls separating 
grades under present construction 
practices of the state gives us no 
cause to fear that we shall see here 
the unsightly structures built when 
grade crossings were abolished a 
generation ago. 

It is reassuring to know that our 
abolition plan will be carried out by 
the State Dept, of Public Works 
under the direction of our esteemed 
fellow - townsman, Commissioner 
Volpe, who recommends the plan, 
who has the welfare of his commu- 
nity as well as the state at heart 
and whose sound judgment we all 
have reason to respect. 

Those who would reject this plan 
are arguing in effect for a continu- 
ance of existing conditions. It is 
difficult to believe that any fully- 
informed citizen would vote to per- 
petuate this well-nigh intolerable 
grade crossing, the abolition of 
which has been so long sought and 
is so plainly required in the inter- 
ests of the public convenience and 
the public safety. 

A "Yes” vote at the referendum 
next Friday, the 20th, will be a 
vote for the everlasting benefit of 
the town. The result of the voting 
should leave no doubt that this is 
the plan which Winchester wants 
and that Winchester wants it now.

PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! 


Editor of the Star: 

"Mrs. Elliott, your little boy has 
been in a bad accident at the Win- 
chester Grade Crossing.” That was 
the message brought to my mother 
from the Winchester Police some 
GO years ago. A good little kid was 
brought home in a basket from the 
Grade Crossing. A good little kid 
on his way home from school. 

Thirty years later, "Al, please 
come home, your brother Danny has 
been in a had accident at the Win- 
chester Grade ('tossing.” That was 
the message brought to me by 
Charlie O’Connell, the late brother 
of Lieutenant "Eddie” of the Win- 
chester Police Department. 

I said, "Charlie, could it happen 
that two members of the same fam- 
ily could have been killed at this 
‘Death Trap’?” He said, "Al, it’s 
so, Danny is gone.” Danny Elliott, 
not anybody of note, but still my 
brother anil a great guy in my 
book. 

Winchester people, this note does 
not make good reading but it is 
facts. 

When my first brother was killed 
there was u movement to do away 
with the Crossing. Was it done? 
NO! 

So now I usk you, please! Let us 
all vote to raise the track before 
someone else gets one of these 
sumo messages.

HAS CHANGED HIS MIND 


Editor of the Star: 

Two or so years ago I was one of 
a group who signed nn appeal to 
the voters in favor of raising the 
tracks. Since then I have changed 
my mind. 1 had intended to say so 
at the special town meeting, but I 
understand I am not the only per- 
son who refrained from doing so 
because of the personal attacks and 
innuendos launched at the pro- 
ponents of the plan. 

The men who for many years 
have served our town and our Com- 
monwealth, and are in favor of this 
plan, are of the highest integrity 
and have unselfishly given their 
time and ability in public service 
without hope or thought of gain or 
reward. Present difference of 
opinion does not lessen my regard 
for them or my confidence in them. 

The controversy should he based 
on facts not personalities. 

Recently, looking at the hideous 
overhead structure in Lynn made 
me realize that, of necessity ours 
could not be much better. If there 
were no alternative we should ac- 
cept it, even with reluctance. But 
it is my opinion that raising the 
tracks should he only the last re- 
sort if there were no other method. 
Once raised they are there forever. 
They will not he changed or taken 
down until the railroad goes out of 
business. Overpasses or under- 
passes can be changed or modified 
at any time. Highways can he laid 
out and relocated at any time but 
the raised tracks would be irre- 
vocable. 

The problem of abolishing the 
crossing involves not only public 
safety but the flow of traffic. Traf- 
fic through our town has increased 
tremendously in the past twenty 
years. Our streets were not built 
to carry the volume. In the next 
twenty years there will be further 
increase. I suggest that the over- 
all problem involves not only the 
center of Winchester but its bor- 
ders. We need a highway to the 
east which would carry the traffic 
around us. In the old days there 
was only a trickle on North Wash- 
ington street. Today, with Route 
128 in operation, there is a flood 
poured through Winchester. Like- 
wist* we need a highway to the west, 
which, perhaps, may be provided by 
the completion of Route 3. 

Under the present plan all of the 
present traffic, and all of the in- 
evitable increase, will still travel 
the same narrow streets right 
through the center of our town. It 
is possible that the raising of the 
tracks, plus the overpass, will at- 
tract even more traffic through 
Winchester, in which case, Sym- 
mes corner, Main street, and Wash- 
ington street will be even more 
over-burdened. 

When 1 contemplate that after 
raising the tracks we shall stand 
on Mount Vernon street and see 
railway trains cutting off the bel- 
fry of the First Congregational 
Church, I have come to believe that 
we should do it only as a last re- 
sort without other alternatives.

A CALAMITY THREATENS 


Editor of the Star: 

Since we are to have another 
referendum which, though indirect- 
ly, will determine whether the rail- 
road crossing at the Center shall he 
eliminated by elevating the tracks, 
I beg you to publish the present 
communication as my contribution 
towards the defense of this town 
against the calamity that is threat- 
ening it. 

Before casting his vote every 
citizen should ask himself the three 
following questions: Would the 

construction of the projected wall 
add to the beauty of the town ? 
Would it increase real estate 
values? Would it solve the traffic 
problem? His vote should be de- 
termined by the answers to those 
questions. 

The wall, no matter how clothed 
or disguised by its proponents, 
would deface Winchester from the 
Medford to the Woburn line, by the 
ugliness that is characteristic of 
such walls and by the noise and 
dust caused by the many trains 
that would run on top of it. I can- 
not understand how the citizens of 
Winchester, so many of whom have 
traveled thousands of miles over 
land and sea to admire beauty in 
Europe or America, can be recon- 
ciled with the idea of having their 
home town permanently scarred. 

Moreover, the unattractive sight, 
the louder noise, and larger clouds 
of dust would reduce the value of 
many fine homes for a distance of 
at least half a mile on each side of 
the tracks, and this devaluation 
would eventually result in greatly 
reduced tax revenue for the town. 
And at the Center it is extremely 
unlikely that anybody would be 
rush enough to construct another 
commercial building like Filene’s 
with trains running parallel to 
third story windows. 

Finully, would the projected 
elimination really solve the traffic 
problem? No doubt truck drivers 
traveling between Woburn and 
Medford would save as much as 
five minutes of their time, and the 
Winchester shoppers who refuse to 
use either Palmer or Bacon street 
would have fewer occasions to he 
impatient. But the problem would 
still be with us, whether the traffic 
continued on Main street or should 
be detoured to Washington street. 

We are told that it would cost 
six million dollars to build the wall 
and put the tracks on top. The 
state would pay the six million, but 
exactly what benefits would Win- 
chester derive from this expense? 
More and heavier through traffic, 
more dust and noise, greater 
danger to the lives of our school 
children, more insomnia for the 
adults, more ugliness to feed our 
eyes upon, and less revenue for the 
town treasury. Not only do I think 
it would be folly to spend six mil- 
lion dollars for such a wall, but I 
fear that later the town would want 
to spend another six million to have 
it removed. If our officials can’t 
think of a better plan, let them 
leave the center as it is.

SCHOOLS PRIMARY PROBLEM 


Editor of the Star: 

A resident and a taxpayer in 
Winchester for nearly eleven years, 
I am somewhat discouraged by the 
grade crossing controversy and by 
what in my opinion appears to be 
a lack of clear thinking on the 
subject. Admittedly, my large fam- 
ily and my experience of nearly 
twenty years in engineering acti- 
vity affect the views that I express. 

Winchester is without question 
one of the most desirable commu- 
nities in which to live and to bring 
up a family, large or small. Yet, 
we must all accept the fact that the 
physical plant provided for our jun- 
ior and senior high school students 
is not adequate. This is our pri- 
mary responsibility and should be 
fully discharged before any other 
program is activated. All Winches- 
ter parents, I am certain, are 
thankful that plans are well under 
way to correct the shortcomings of 
the school plant. 

I am not certain that the elimi- 
nation of the grade crossing is as 
important as many appear to claim. 
It is not my purpose to discuss the 
merits or demerits of the many 
plans suggested. The point I wish 
to make is that our town has a 
greater need for additional school 
facilities than for the grade cross- 
ing elimination. It is doubtful that 
we can afford both. 

It is well to remember that 
whether the federal government, 
the state, the town or the B. & 
M. provides the working capital is 
of no real significance. It ultimate- 
ly comes from the residents of 
Winchester in higher taxes or in- 
creased comutation fares. 

Construction estimates for pro- 
jects such as the grade crossing 
are difficult to prepare and few 
engineering projects of this nature 
can be fully completed under cur- 
rent conditions without exceeding 
the estimated amounts. 

It appears thut a clear cut an- 
swer is needed as to why we should 
become involved in such an expen- 
I sive undertaking at the same time 
that the more pressing problem of 
improved school facilities must be 
solved. The elimination of railroad 


time for both vehicles and pedes 
trians under the tracks from Com 
mon street to Waterfield Road. 

The question of cost has bother- 
ed many. State funds earmarked 
for this project will come from 
money already appropriated by the 
highway bond issue of 1952 and 
will be financed by revenues from 
the gasoline tax. No burden from 
the state’s share will fall on real 
estate. 

The excess and deficiency fund 
from which $190,000 was transfer- 
red as tiie entire cost of the town’s 
share in the project is money which 
the town has saved for capital im- 
provements such as this. It is avail- 
able and will entail no future tax- 
es. It is in existence to meet just 
such contingencies as the crossing 
project. It is not earmarked for any 
one project nor for any one depart- 
ment. This appropriation will not 
wipe out the fund, which now 
stands in excess of a half million 
dollars and it need not affect our 
school program. 

Acceptance of this project now 
will end the long period of indeci- 
sion. The money is available now 
from appropriations already made,, 
and if we in Winchester do not ap- 
prove tli is plan the state’s money 
will be spent for a similar project 
in some other comunity. 

If we do not accept this project 
now, it will be extremely difficult 
to convince any state body in the 
future that Winchester will ever 
agree on a crossing elimination or 
a traffic by-pass. 

We urge all voters to VOTE 
"YES” on November 20. 

ONE CENTURY OF INDECI- 
SION IS ENOUGH. 

V. Farnsworth, Jr., Chairman 
Committee for Grade Crossing 
Elimination and Traffic By-Pass 


A STAGGERING LOAD 
CONFRONTS US 


Editor of the Star: 

At the last Town Meeting I gave 
the following reasons in support 
of my stand in opposition to the 
present plan for the elimination of 
the grade crossing: 

( 1 ) The damage to homes and 
consequent depreciation in proper- 1 
ty values in the Rangeley section 
of our town. 

(2) The plain fnct that several 
homes on Swanton and Spruce 
streets will he so ruinously affected 
by the present plan: 

(a) Spruce street under the 
plan will for two years or more 
have temporary tracks placed 
close to the back doors of the 
houses. Replacing these tracks 
the overhead structure will 
rise, its sides composed of 
cinders and fill. This structure 
will be n detriment to health, 
to safety, and to property 
valuation. Spruce street at its 
junction with Swanton will be- 
come dead-end as it meets a 
wall 12 feet in height. 

(b) Swanton street will be, 
from Cedar to Holland streets, 
a depressed roadway, its sides 
supported by thick, high re- 
taining walls. The several 
houses in this affected area will 
be down behind the retaining 
walls, some at a depth of 18 to 
20 feet. The front yards of 
these homes will be taken to 
form part of narrow 15-foot 
service roads by which the 
people will get necessary 
deliveries. 

I deeply resent the fact that the 
citizens in charge of promoting the 
overhead and depressed road 
structure had no meeting with these 
people before the voting on this 
matter at the* two Town Meetings 
and one previous referendum to 
show t hem just what they could 
expect in the event of the passage 
of this plan. 

(c) I sympathize with our 
merchants in the Square who 
will lose their business in- 
comes, practically, during the 
necessary upheaval in their 
midst for two years or more. 

Now, we have received two more 
notices to attend Town Meetings 
anil vote money for two school pro- 
jects and other less important un- 
dertakings. 

The sums to be expended for 
these school projects are: 

(1) Building present Junior 
High School over to house the 
Senior High School pupils $1,957,- 
000 . 

(2) Addition to Park hurst School 
$225,000. 

And, although it is not being voted 
upon at this time there is, as part 
of this picture, the remodeling of 
the present Senior High School to 
house the Junior High pupils. This 
figure is now $300,000. 

Adding up these three items we 
get $2,482,000. This is just for 
schools alone, a drain on our tax 
burdens for 20 years. During those 
years there will he the regular 
running expenses of the town and 
other necessary projects that may 
arise, such as a new fire house on 
the West side which the proposed 
busy traffic circle in the center 
would seem to make mandatory. 

If we could retrieve from the 
Excess and Deficiency fund the 
$190,000 which is proposed to aid 
building the overhead railway, that 
sum would mean a reduction of 
$4.90 per thousand on the tax rate. 
This, I think, is worth our serious 
consideration. We must not let the 
staggering load which confronts us 
knock out of balance not only our 
personal budgets but the Town’s 
finances as well. 

In the old days of economy-mind- 
ed Town Meetings many of us can 
recall John Carr, Dr. Harper 
Rlaisdell, and several other care- 
ful, conscientious chairmen of 
former Finance Committees stand- 
ing before us, explaining, caution- 
ing us, exhorting us, and warning 
us to keep in mind as we voted, 
the taxpayers and their hard-earn- 
ed savings. 

Those men and many others like 
them helped to make Winchester 
the town it is. Let us work to keep 
it that way.

THE REAL ISSUE 


Editor of the Star: 

The sound and fury raised about 
the Grade Crossing Project confuse 
what appear to be some very plain 
facts. First, nearly two out of 
every three Winchester voters in 
the last Referendum supported a 
plan to raise the tracks. Second, 
the plan on which they voted has 
now been substantially improved by 
the addition (tit no cost to the 
town) of a traffic by-pass through 
the Skillings Estate. Third, the 
total cost of the town has now been 
guaranteed by the state not to ex- 
ceed $190,000. an amount available 
from E & I) and one which does not 
necessitate a bond issue.

Editor of the Star: 

Neither time nor space permits 
more than a few interested citizens, 
from scattered sections of the 
Town, to speak here for the many 
hundreds of residents who are un- 
alterably against the proposed plan 
of an Elevated Railroad as a solu- 
tion to our Crossing und Traffic 
problems. 

This is the ONLY PLAN FOR 
WHICH WINCHESTER RESI-

TED TO VOTE! 

We want an honest presentation 
of an alternate plan or plans (there 
are several) and the privilege of 
expressing a choice before being 
shoved headlong into this proposed 
eternal, bottomless mess. 

We want u modern plan, less 
extravagant and wasteful of peo- 
ples’ money, less disrupting to the 
Town and business interests, less 
damaging to homes in many sec- 
tions and less destructive to pro- 
jects and improvements for which 
our taxpayers have expended years 
of effort and millions of dollars.

WINCHESTER— A TOWN 
IN MASSACHUSETTS. 

ITS MOST VEXING PROBLEM 

Editor of the Star: 

Tliis town is one of the most 
beautiful in all New England. Its 
setting most desirable in every 
way I know. Woods and streams 
and lakes and hills. Part of the 
valley of Merrimac of ancient pre- 
glacial times. The Merrimac Falls 
at Lowell powered the mills that 
worked the cotton thnt made the 
cloth thnt went to Boston, and so 
on, all in a railroad train. It was a 
fast train — they nil were. Faster 
than the canal boat, or ox or ass or 
even horse. Dangerous too. No 
wonder, running on steel rails. 
Fifteen miles and more an hour! 

There was a town along the way. 
A large town, so extensive even as 
to have reached almost to Charles- 
town. Woburn, they called it. The 
South Woburn crowd got so inde- 
pendent and stubborn they even 
wanted a separate church to save 
walking a mere four or five miles 
every Sunday. Got away with it. 
Then the place was so crowded 
after a while with aristocrats and 
such from Boston they became real 
"snooty” and wouldn’t associate 
with those tanners and shoemakers 
up in Woburn and actually wanted 
to be a separate town. Didn’t know 
what to call it even. Smart, 
though! Sort of hinted round and 
got three thousand dollars for nam- 
ing it "Winchester”. (F. O. Prince’s 
friend Colonel Winchester, of 
Watertown.) Have some of the 
money yet. Ever since 1850! 

Trouble was, they hadn’t enough 
foresight! Couldn’t get together 
and keep the streets off the rail- 
road. Boston and Lowell road start- 
ed to build in 1831 and South Wo- 
burn got in trouble with railroad 
crossing almost before it started. 
November 21, 1834 the County 

Commissioners ordered relocation 
of streets to save life. That’s a 
hundred and nineteen years ago. 
Not done yet. 

Found papers on the doorstep 
Armistice day showing plan for 
final all-time settlement. Trouble 

is, none of the selectmen’s meetings 
and deliberations have gone far 
enough. Half the crowd in a town 
meeting "don’t know what it’s all 
about.” Same with town meeting 
members. Ever hear of one of 
them explaining anything to any- 
body? Voters need very clear in- 
formation on paper right in their 
homes so they can ponder it and 
discuss it. 

These papers are the most in- 
formative of their kind I have ever 
seen. The explanations are cical- 
as to when meetings were held; 

I how many votes. November 1945, 

I 436 votes. But the trouble is the 
explanations are not complete en- 
ough, and nine thousand or more 
people want to be shown. "Write, 
not so that the reader may under- 
stand if he will, but that he shall 
understand you whether he will or 
not.” 

Winchester is still a town of 
homes, and doubtless will remain 
so. I do not believe 30,000 vehicles 
should be allowed to cross the 
tracks every 24 hours, — nor any 
vehicles. All of the studies have 
been on the assumption that to raise 
the tracks was the only solution. 
Why? Fences like the ones be- 
tween the tracks would surely stop 
vehicles. If not, why not stronger, 
with base-wall sufficient to be elim- 
ination ? 

It is not a matter of "just for to- 
day”. Who can tell the increase in 
weight and volume of future traffic 
to concentrate in this small space! 
The shopping centre does not de- 
serve it. The through traffic does 
not belong in ’the heart of a resi- 
dential town. 

If some device were placed be- 
hind the few buildings which back 
toward the tracks on the East side 
showing the 19-foot level of the 
proposed new tracks, and the train 
or freight car height, I am sure 
it would be an awful shock to many 
people. 

Think of the extra volume of 
rest-destroying noise by reason of 
the greater height of roadbed. 

I do not minimize the amount of 
faithful thought and effort that has 
been given, nor the monetary cost. 
I do, however, sincerely feel that 
the way out is not to say "Go 
ahead” at this time with the track- 
raising plan, hut to fence off the 
tracks and detour the traffic, with 
conviction that there is land-sur- 
face enough in or near the right 
places for permanent roads of suf- 
ficient width. 

Why ruin a lot of business 
people ? 

Why clutter up a lovely district 
for two and a half years? 

To raise the Winchester railroad 
tracks now could be a mistuke be- 
yond recovery. Please do not risk 

it. First detour the traffic for a 
period. Then, — say after a few 
months — it there's no other way, 
THEN raise the tracks.

OPEN LETTER 

TO WINCHESTER MERCHANTS 

Editor of the Star: 

I respectfully request you to print 
the following: 

You probably do not know the 
undersigned resident of Winches- 
ter. There are in fact a good many 
of us residents whom you have 
never seen, because we avoid you 
carefully. It isn’t thut we don’t 
like you; we know that there are 
many fine shops in Winchester. 
But on most of the rare occasions 
when we have ventured into the 
center, we have been hopelessly 
stuck in u traffic jam occasioned by 
the passage of one or more trains. 
This experience invariably results 
in a vow of "never again” and 
thenceforth wo buy our cars, elec- 
trical appliances, phonograph rec- 
ords. clothing, and food in neigh- 
boring towns which are not blessed 
! with a grade crossing problem. I’m 
sure we'd all prefer to trade at 
home; if you would like to have us 
do so, please help to make Win- 
chester a town where busy people 
can afford to shop by voting in 
favor of tlie grade crossing elim- 
ination in the coming referendum. 

Sincerely yours, 
Ruth D. Terznghi 


DISAPPOINTED IN LAST WEEK'S 
LETTERS! 

Editor of the Star: 

In your issue of November G, you 
publish several letters in reference 
to the Grade Crossing Elimination. 

1 was disappointed to see that the 
letters were fivc-to-one against the 
proposed plan, although 1 did note 
that two iff the five letters against 
the plan were from the same per- 
son. 

In view of the decided opinion of 
the town, as shown in the various 
votes, both by referendum and by 
Representative Town Meeting, to 
back the well worked out plans of 
the Commonwealth of Massachu- 
setts, I suspect that a minority in 
the Town of Winchester are taking 
advantage of your free letters 
column in an attempt to obstruct 
this progress. 

For those of us who have suffer- 
ed for years with this antiquated 
intersection of the Railroad and 
Motor traffic, it is hard to believe 
that any group in town is willing 
to oppose a project so long needed. 

1 fail to see why they cannot ap- 
preciate that many hundreds of 
hours of engineering research, plus 
the combined studies and efforts of 
elected town officials over a span of 
probably fifty years, have finally 
resulted in action to rid the town of 
this traffic menace. 

I feel fairly sure in the state- 
ment that the relief of the hazards 
from the transportation bottleneck 
of Winchester Center is but a small 
part of a great program of com- 
bined State and Local officials to 
bring Massachusetts communities 
up to present day standards of 
transportation arteries. It might 
be well to note that this program 
may have far-reaching effect on 
our individual nervous systems. It 
seems to me very possible that the 
combination of bumper-to-bumper 
traffic lines with the attendant gas 
fumes, plus the rod, green and am- 
ber traffic lights, might alone be 
more serious than annoying. How- 
ever, when you add to this the main 
artery of the Boston and Maine 
Railroad, the situation then is both 
serious and dangerous. 

However, the point of this letter 
is that a great majority of us are 
truly thankful that we have men, 
represented by our Board of Select- 
men, both past and present, who, 
with the fine cooperation of officials 
from both the Commonwealth of 
Massachusetts and the Boston and 
Maine Railroad, have found a solu- 
tion to this problem. 

I have great confidence that u 
majority of our fellow townsmen 
will vote Yes on the referendum. 

Sincerely yours, 
Daniel F. Barnard, 
5 Indian Hill road

WYMAN SCHOOL 
INFORMAL DANCE 

Tw.i hundred and fifty Wyman 
parents and their friends enjoyed a 
delightful evening last Saturday, 
when the Wyman Mothers’ Assoei- 
rli° n s l M ' nsori ‘d hu informal dance. 
1 he high spot of the evening was at 
Intermission time when a floor 
show produced by Mrs. Bradford 
Bentley was announced to the sur- 
prised gathering. The orchestra 
played the well-known “Dragnet ’ 
theme and Friday’s capable sub- 
• s Ulute, a character known as “Sun 
day . appeared. “Sunday’s” close 
resemblence to Rev. John Snook, Ji. 
was noted by those present as he 
proceeded with the case under in- 
vestigation. The first witnesses 
called proved to he four well-known 
dancers, Mrs. Bruce 1. a Rose, Mrs. 
( laude (’allaham, Mrs. Herbert 
Wood and Mrs. John McClellan who 
gaily^ tapped to the tune of “School 
Days” while the audience shrieked 
their approval. The next witness, 
Mrs. Winthrop Knox, presented a 
more serious case, ami delighted 
the audience with her lovely voice 
"’hen she sang: “Gianina Min” and 
“No Other Love”. Hilarity ruled 
again when Jack Snook became 
quiz master and completely baffled 
the eight intelligent suspects (in- 
cluding Rev. John W. Ellison) pick- 
ed from the audience. By the way, 
How many outs are in an inning? 
After the blushing contestants re- 
turned to the crowd, it was an- 
nounced that Mrs. Robert Stewart 
won the door prize and Mrs. Robert 
Ingraham won the lucky number, 

Delicious refreshments were en- 
joyed and all agreed on a hearty 
vote of thanks to Mrs. Thomas 
Hill and her committee: Mrs. Brad- 
ford Bently, Mrs. Alan Burns, Mrs. 
Howard Stockwell, Mrs. John Lath- 
rop, Mrs. Thornton Stearns and 
Mrs. Raymond Chase. 

Thanks go to all Wyman Mothers 
whose support of the dance made k 
a great financial success. The pro- 
ceeds will help the Wyman Mothers’ 
Association make a gift to the 
school and a contribution to the 
Winchester Scholarship Fund. 



John Winthrop, Jr., who estab- 
lished the country’s first success- 
ful ironworks at Saugus, Mass., 
was chief founder of the town of

Rev. Stephen Burke, council 
Chaplain, whose faithful atten-

their endeavors to insure success 
this season. 

Preceding the installation cere- ! 
monies, the council enjoyed their 
own prepared and served lobster 
dinner with special commendation 
due Deputy Grand Knight Jim 
Mawn for arranging delivery of the 
lobsters fresh from Maine waters. 
Particular commendation went to 
Brother Albie McDonald w h o

and to the Elks for the use of their 
kitchen facilities. 

It was the concensus that if Al- 
bie McDonald ever decides to he a

to engage his services. Assists are 
due to the following, who served as

resident of Winchester and affec- 
tionately known far and wide as 
“Cy”. 

“Cy’s” health recently hasn’t 
been as good as his friends could 
wish, hut he was able to receive 
and thoroughly enjoy his guests, 
their visit coming as a real tonic. 

The Winchester voyageurs re- 
port that the Perkins hospitality 
and humor were in their old time 
form and that they had a most 
pleasant visit with “Cy” in Liniing- 
ton.

A LETTER TO YOU MR. HOME OWNER & TAXPAYER of WINCHESTER 


HEAR SIR: 

On November lfitli Winchester will hold a Town Meeting 
lo vote on tin* question of Rent Control for Winchester. V Ol . as 
a HOME OWNER and TAXPAYER OE WINCHESTER should 
KNOW WHAT YOUR TOW N MEETING MEMBERS ARE NOT- 
ING FOR. 

Last spring the Massachusetts Legislature passed a Rent Con- 
trol Gill. Let me quote some of the portions of this hill. 

Section 2 (Definitions of Housing Accommodations and 
Controlled Housing Accommodations) states in item (h): 
“Controlled Housing Accommodations,” all housing accommo- 
dations except: (Then follow six classifications of exceptions, 
of which we, as a whole, are interested mainly in the 6th. 
which reads: “On or after JULN THIRTY-FIRST, nineteen 
hundred and fifty-three, ALL housing accommodations in 
EVERY city and town in this commonwealth EXCEPT the 
housing accommodations in those cities and towns which AC- 
CEPT the provisions of THIS act IN ACCORDANCE WITH 
SECTION TWELVE,” which reads: 

“Any city or town in which federal rent controls exist 
at the time of tin* passage of this act MAY, between the date of 
said passage and JUNE THIRTIETH, NINETEEN HUN- 
DRED AND EIFTY-EOl R, by VOTE of the CITY COUN- 
CIL, if a CITY, or of a TOWN MEETING CALLED FOR 
THE PURPOSE, if a TOWN, accept the provisions of this act. 
Such VOTE SHALL INCLUDE a DECLARATION that a 
SUBSTANTIAL SHORTAGE of RENTAL housing accom- 
modations EXISTS in SUCH CITY or TOWN and that the 
CONTROL OF RENTS therein IS NECESSARY in the PUR- 
LIC INTEREST.” 

Section 4 la) reads: “Upon the ACCEITANCE of THIS 
ACT as set forth in section TWELVE, the hoard of selectmen 
SHALL appoint a rent hoard of at least five members. A ma- 
jority of said hoard shall he representatives of the PI RLIC 
INTEREST and the REMAINDER shall he EQUALLY REP- 
RESENTATIVES of the LANDLORDS and TENANTS” 
(Note: This last sentence defines what is meant hy “public 
interest,” i. e., it means neither the landlord nor the tenant, i 
A RENT BOARD may EMPLOY and FIX the SAFA- 
RI FS of such assistants and clerical aid AS IT DFFMS NEC- 
ESSARY. During the CURRENT FISCAL YFAR, rent 
hoards are AUTHORIZED to INCUR LIABILITIES in carry- 
ing out the provisions of this act and l*AV MEATS therefor

tin* purposes of this act with tin* approval of the rent hoards 
^ shall hi* reimbursed bv the commonwealth upon upprmal 
and CERTIFICATION to the COMPTROLLER In the CO- 
ORDINATOR.” 


The Rent Board is subject to legal action. 

Section 6 lai reads in part: “ANY PERSON who is AC- 
GR1EVED hy ANY ACTION, REGULATION or ORDER of 
the RENT HOARD may FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST 
THE RENT HOARD in the DISTRICT COl RT for the ju- 
dicial district within which is located the controlled housing 
accommodation affected hy such action, regulation or order, 
and thereupon an order of notice SHALL be issued hy such 
court and SERVED on the RENT BOARD” 

These are a few of the highlights of the hill. Think them over 
well. Do you want any police state such as that in your commu- 
nity? Now let us analyze the above sections. 

I nder Section 12 of the layv, Winchester took no action prior 
to July 31. 1953. In accordance with the law all rents became de- 
controlled oil August 1st of this year. Adjustments in rents, in 
W inehester. if any, have already been made. What purpose can 
he served hy controlling rents at present levels? Dissatisfied 
tenants have already found other quarters and under the rent con- 
trol law a vacated apartment is automatically decontrolled. The 
law does not stale that rents may he rolled hack and if 'this were 
done, it might lead to endless confusion and even lawsuits. W hy 
raise the issue now, after adjustments have already been completed? 

lip to July 31, 1953, a centralized government in Washington, 
with billions at its command, paid the cost of rent control. Now, 
however, under this hill, you, the local taxpayer, must pay the 
cost. Read Section 4 quoted above. 

The Rent Hoard may employ assistants and clerical aid. They 
may well he involved in lawsuits with corresponding legal ex- 
penses. They may have to employ operators to enforce their rul- 
ings. And the final hill to the community, regardless of the 
amount. MUST RE certified hy the treasurer in January. 1954, to 
the hoard of assessors, who SHALL, WITHOUT FURTHER VOTE 
of the town, RAISE SUCH SUMS in the TAX LEVY of 1954. I 
doubt if our taxpayers, with the interest in present high taxi's and 
pressing problems in school conditions, municipal salaries and the 
like, will care to endorse any blank cheek like* that to keep a con- 
trol no longer needed, especially as ALL other controls in the 
country have been removed. Do you want your lax rale to go up 
in order to form a bureaucracy in Winchester? 

This rent hill says that a vote SHALL include a DECLARA- 
TION that a SUBSTANTIAL SHORTAGE of RENTAL llol S- 
ING ACCOMMODATIONS EXISTS in Winchester and that the 
CONTROL OF BENI'S therein IS NFCESSARN in the PI RLIC 
l\ I IBIS I . J list what does this mean? It it not just a meaning- 
le*s phrase; it means that such a declaration must he based oil irre- 
futable facts, a truthful slatemeul that such a condition doe* exist. 
No Mir\e\ has yet been made in \\ inehester to find out if this need 
exists. 


W’liat are the facts? According to the 1950 census there were, 
in Winchester, 4160 occupied dwelling units Of these. 3180 were 
owner-occupied and only 980 were renter-occupied. These are 
the figures of 1950, compiled from a disinterested Government 
source, and do not include the additional dwelling UMTS made 
available hy the building boom of the last three years. In 1950, 
again according to the census, there were 67 vacant rental units, 
or a vacancy ratio of 6.8.% A vacancy ratio of 3% lias been ac- 
cepted as the limit beyond which rent controls are no longer neces- 
sary. In 1940 the population of Winchester, according to the 
census of that year, was 15,081, the increase in population from 
1940 to 1950 was 428 or 2.85%. The number of dwellings in Win- 
chester in 1940 was 3687, the increase in dwellings from 1910 to 
1950 was 550 or 14.9%. In 1950 there were more dwelling units 
per person than in 1940, and no controls were needed in 1940. And 
these figures do NOT include the building boom of the last three 
years. 

Rut this is not all. The Declaration must also state that CON- 
TROL OF RENTS therein is NECESSARY in the PUBLIC IN- 
TEREST. Blit what is meant hy PUBLIC INTEREST lias already 
been set forth in the hill. PUBLIC INTEREST is not the interest 
of either tin* landlord or the tenant, hut the interest of the citizens 
of the Town as a whole. How, then, can any such statement he 
substantiated, when all advocates of the hill claim it is for the 
“poor, defenseless tenants” to protect them against the “avaricious” 
landlords. When will the citizens of this Town wake up and be- 
come Americans again? 

Fellow townsmen, landlords are no different than other busi- 
nessmen; all they want is fair play. No landlord is going to raise 
his rents to unwarranted levels. If lie did. lie would soon have 
empty apartments and he out of business. The same laws govern 
renting as govern other businesses. The average landlord takes 
pride in his property, pride in his community, and yes, pride 
in his tenants, too. And if, occasionally a misguided indivi- 
dual among landlords acts unwisely, his own industry and fellow' 
citizens can quickly bring him into line. There is no reason for the 
class hatred that lias been built up ill this country between land- 
lords and tenants. Any landlord lias t lit* privilege of becoming a 
tenant and any tenant of becoming a landlord. 'I ll in is supposed 
to he a nation of free enterprise. 

November 16th Winchester will DECIDE between AMER- 
ICANISM and SOCIALISM, whether they will govern themselves 
or delegate part of that power to a Bureaucracy. That is the real 
question before you. One Hundred Seventy-Eight years ago the 
citizens of Winchester were faced with a similar problem. They 
voted with their Idood on tin* battlefield of G*xington. Their sacri- 
fice made it possible for you to go to a Town Meeting today and 
vote. Have your Town Meeting Members go the the Town Meet- 
ing November Ifilli and VOTE NO to Rent Control. VOTE NO, 
because your liberty is not an inherited privilege, hill something 
for which you must certainly fight. VOTE NO. for today oppres- 
sion of landlords may tomorrow mean oppression of you.

Christopher Lynch, distinguished

Firestone radio and television pro- 
grams, and a protege of the great 
John McCormack, will be presented 
in a concert at Marycliff Academy, 
Winchester, Monday evening, No- 
vember 16, at 8 o’clock. The con- 
cert is sponsored by the Fathers’ 
Club of Marycliff. Mr. Rogers 
Hamel of Winchester and Mr.

charge of arrangements. 

Departing from his usual formal 
concert style, Mr. Lynch will offer 
a program of popular appeal, in- 
cluding several numbers from 
Broadway musical shows, two ori- 
ginal specialty features, some

Irish artist and the young Limerick 
tenor were close friends until the 
day of McCormack’s death in 1945.

Four new “Highliner” weekday 
trains will start operating <»n the 
Boston and Maine Railroad Novem- 
ber 16, adding new service between 
Boston and Portland, Maine, and 
Boston and Concord, New Hamp- 
shire. 

Leaving Boston at 7:60 a. m. will 
he the “Businessman” with an 
operating schedule designed for 
salesmen and business men who 
make frequent trips to Portland, 
Me. The new train will feature a 
stop at Wakefield, close to Highway 
route No. 128 at 8:04 a. m. and will 
make stops at Exeter, Dover, N. H.; 
North Berwick, Biddeford, and 
Portland, Maine, arriving in Port- 
land at 9:56 a. m. Matching this 
eastbound morning train will he a 
mid-afternoon westbound “Busi- 
nessman” leaving Portland at 3:30 
p. m. muking the same stops as the 
eastbound train and arriving at 
Wakefield, Mass., at 5:20 p. m. and 
Boston at 6:36 p. m. 

R. F. Cowan, Passenger Traffic 
Manager of the Road is stressing 
the importance of the new train 
to the businessmen said, “This new 
deluxe air-conditioned train will 
give a convenient schedule adapted 
to the salesmen and will allow them 
to relax or do their paper work en- 
route. It will also free them from 
tiresome driving plus the added ex- 
pense of highway tolls and give 
them a dependable arrival time re- 
gardless of weather conditions.” 
Cowan also pointed to the early 
arrival time at Wakefield and Bos- 
ton on the return trip. 

The new service for Concord, 
N. H., from Boston will consist of 
a deluxe “Highliner” train leaving 
Boston at 6:30 p. m. with stops at 
Nashua, 7:13 p. m. and Manchester, 
7:31 p. m. arriving at Concord at 
7 :55 p. m. 

A new evening “Highliner” train 
leaving Concord, N. H., for Boston 
at 9:00 p. m. will make stops at 
Manchester, 9:26 p. m. and Nashua, 
9:45 p. m. arriving in Boston at 
10:30 p. m. 

The addition of these trains 
makes a total of 38 deluxe High- 
liner trains now in operation on the 
Boston and Maine Railroad. 

The new deluxe stainless steel 
trains are self-propelled and com- 
pletely air conditioned. Some of 
the interior features include large 
picture windows, highback foam 
rubber upholstered seats, fluores- 
cent overhead lights, and colorful 
rubber tiled floors. 


Parents eclipsed all previous 
records for attendance as approxi- 
mately seven hundred and fifty en- 
thusiastic mothers and fathers at- 
tended Open House at Winchester 
High School last Thursday. 

Reviewing the attendance re- 
ports collected during the third 
period of the simulated school day, 
Principal Wade L. Grindle com- 
mented, “We certainly had a record- 
breaking attendance. Not only 
were there more parents present, 
hut they gave every appearance of 
being pleased with what they saw 
and heard. Science laboratories, 
especially, were unable to seat all 
of the guests, and to mnke the 
evening complete, the refreshments 
provided by the ladies of the 
Parent-Faculty Association were 
delicious and abundant.” 

Home room teachers and room 
mothers greeted the early arrivals, 
who were given copies of their 
boy’s and girl’s Thursday schedule 
and, after a few explanatory words, 
were on their own to follow the 
program as it took them from loom 
to room and building to building. 

Teachers dropping into the cafe- 
teria for an after-school snack 
were unanimous in their praise of 
the spirit that prompted so many 
to attend and, attending, to he so 
complimentary. 

Of particular interest was the 
sample room, Room 13, in which 
parents could readily observe the 
effect of adequate light, sound re- 
sistant ceilings, movable furniture, 
extensive bookcases and bulletin 
hoards, and a floor surface that 
permits more thorough cleaning. 

Another pleasant feature of Open 
House was the larger number of 
parents who followed the programs 
of their hoys and girls enrolled in 
the commercial course or other ter- 
minal education subjects like prac- 
t i c a 1 mathematics, aeronautical 
science, non college English, geo- 
graphy, and many others. 

Representatives of the Parent- 
Faculty Association were pleased 
with the large total of family dues 
collected which helps to assure a 
continuation of the parent-inspired 
aid to the school and to its grad- 
uates. 


The Officers and Steering Com- 
mittee of the Lincoln School Dads’

If you want the most for your money, 
Pontiac is the car to buy. 

You can prove it in one ride. 

The smooth, whisper-soft flow of power... 
the quick response and flexibility of the 
Pontiac engine is a heart-warming expe- 
rience— truly great performance delivered 
with a thriftiness and reliability that 
means dollars in your pocket. 

This fine car action is combined with fine 
car roominess, comfort and luxury. It is 
a rich feeling just to sit in a Pontiac. 

Now check the price. It is only a few 
dollars away from the lowest! The differ- 
ence is even smaller when you consider 
Pontiac’s resale value. An independent 
research study reveals that Pontiac re- 
tains much more of its new car value than 
any other car in its price class. 

Come in while your car is at its peak 
trade-in value. Get the clinching proof 
that deal for deal you can’t beat a Pontiac.

THE FORTNIGHTLY 

The regular meeting of The 
Fortnightly was held Monday, 
November ninth, in the First Bap- 
tist Church. The President, Mrs. 
Sidney A. Burr, presided over a 
short business meeting during 
which Mrs. Frederick W . Cole \\as 
presented an award from the Fed- 
eration for her outstanding work 
on art the past two seasons, when 
she was Chairman of the Art Com- 
mittee of this Club. 

Miss A dele Emery asked for vol- 
unteers to come to the home of Mrs. 
John H. Gilbody Tuesday, Novem- 
ber 17th from 1 to 5 p. m. to help 
pack the Club’s Christmas bags for 
disabled veterans. 

The speaker for the afternoon, 
Miss Mary P. Fitzpatrick, whose 
subject was, “Work of Women of 
the State Police,” presented an in- 
teresting and instructive account 
of some of her experiences as a 
Special Officer stationed nt the 
Framingham State Barracks. 

The policewoman’s work, mem- 
bers were told, deals with women, 
juvenile delinquents, and family 
difficulties. The department is al- 
ways working on preventative 
measures and Miss Kirkpatrick 
urged all parents to he very care- 
ful to set a good example, as child- 
ren try to imitate them. Also, to 
report immediately anyone or any- 
thing that they suspect of being 
immoral or dangerous to society in 
any way. 

I luring an intermission, at a 
table beautifully decorated with a 
fruit centerpiece and candles, tea 
was served with Mrs. Arthur 
Haines and Mrs. William B. Wood 
pouring, assisted by the following 
hostesses for the day: Mrs. William

Meeting Thursday, November 19, 
at 1 1 :00 a. m. at the Harrison Grey 
Otis House, 141 Cambridge street, 
Boston. Mr. Joseph Limrie, collect- 
or and member of the National 
American Glass Club, will speak on 
Art Glass. In the afternoon there 
will he a lecture on Japanese Art 
at the Museum of Fine Arts, Bos- 
ton at 2:30 p. m. 


Dr. Frederick Wulsin, speaking 
to a large group of College Club 
Members nnd guests last Monday 
evening, made ancient Babylon 
i nme vividly alive. Tracing the 
development of Babylon from its 
beginnings ns one of the earliest 
experiments in city living. Dr. Wul- 
sin pictured finally an empire of 
vast scope and influence. 

Because of its geographical 
location, and s&crcity of native raw 
materials, large-scale commerce be- 
came a necessity to the Babylonian 
empire. This in turn required 
strong government organization 
and unified large areas. Businesses 
throve; hanking firms were busy 
and well-organized. There was 
speculation and development in real 
estate no different than that of a 
fancy Florida boom! 

The small family unit prevailed 
as it does today, with neighborhood 
squabbles just as typical; women 
were active not only in home-man- 
agement but in business affairs. 
Education was wide-spread. Legal 
thought and practice was mature, 
as evidenced by numerous wills and 
deeds recorded in well-preserved 
clay tablets. In short, Dr. Wulsin 
brought his audience to realize that 
life in Babylon in 1850 B. C. did not 
differ essentially from life in 1950 
A. D. Technical advances and gadg- 
ets have altered the exterior pict- 
ure; the fundamentals change little 
whether in “Babylon or Boston”. 

Before presenting the speaker, 
Mrs. James B. Willing, called on 
Mrs. Frank B. Kelley, Jr., to read 
the minutes of the last meeting. 
Mrs. Paul B. Leverette followed 
her financial report with the re- 
quest that dues be paid as promptly 
as possible. Mrs. Pitirim Sorokin 
described the Club’s very active and 
successful Day Time Study Groups. 
Included were the History Group 
and the three enthusiastic French 
Conversation Groups. The Art 
Group, led by Mrs. George B. 
Heath, will have its first meeting 
on Nov. 20th at 2 p. m. at the 
Museum of Fine Arts. The Thrifty 
Time-saving Tactics Group will be- 
gin in January. 

Mr. Robert Lowry outlined plans 
for the Evening Study Groups, 
which will open with a supper meet- 
ing on Monday evening, January 
11th. 

This year thorp will be Groups 
studying Music, the American 
Novel, Play Reading, Home Owner- 
ship, and a new Group called “Let’s 
Sing’’. No musical talent is requir- 
ed for the latter! Watch your mail 
and the Star for further inform- 
ation about all of these lively 
Groups.

ANIMAL RESCUE LEAGUE FAIR 


For the 51st consecutive year the 
Animal Rescue League of Boston is 
presenting its Annual Fair. This 
year’s version of the fair is being 
held at the ballroom of the Sher- 
aton Plaza Hotel on Thursday and 
Friday, November 19 and 20. 

The first fair was held in 1903, 
five years after the founding of the 
Animal Rescue League of Boston 
in 1899. During the years since 
then this independent charitable 
organization has labored for the re- 
lief of suffering of all animals. This 
tradition of service, service to 
animals who are in man’s service, 
has never been deviated from. 

During the years, too, the Annual 
Fair has been a major fund-raising 
effort of the Animal Rescue League 
of Boston to enable the League to 
raise the wherewithal to continue 
this service. At the present time 
ambulances visit not only the area 
around Winchester, but all the 
other communities which are in- 
cluded in the Boston telephone dir- 
ectory. 

No charge is made for this ser- 
vice; it is free for the asking. How- 
ever, the price of this service is 
constantly increasing, yet the ser- 
vice has never been decreased. If 
it were not for the generosity of 
citizens who wish to see suffering 
of any kind alleviated, the service 
would necessarily have to he dis- 
continued. 

These animals can’t speak for 
themselves nor ask for aid, but we, 
the human inhabitants of this world 
can give it without asking. In the 
case of the Annual Fair of the 
Animal Rescue League of Boston 
all proceeds are used in the protec- 
tion, rescue and treatment of ani- 
mals. Why not go to the Fair? 
You’ll he doing them a service. 


Mr. Edward J. McDevitt, Jr., of 
34 Everett avenue is one of eight 
new members recently added to 
Northeastern University’s Corpor- 
ation. He is an alumnus of 
Northeastern and has been named 
as alumni term member to serve 
for four years. He is a partner in

Hallowe’en was the theme of a 
gay and colorful assembly program 
presented by the pupils of the third 
grade under the direction of Miss 
Lillian Salicc on October 28. With 
all of the children dressed in Hal- 
lowe’en costumes the spirits of 
spooks and goblins must have felt 
quite at home in the auditorium 
that day. 

The program began with a group 
of poems appropriate to the theme. 
“October’s Party” found the fol- 
lowing participating: 

Diane Kelly 
Dona Colclough 
Paul Flaherty 
Neal Baker 
Margot Hall 
Susan Bryant 
Bruce Carpenter 
JefT Grant 
John Brotherston 

Mimi Barnes, Gary Poor, Mark 
Masterton and Sandra Brown next 
recited “It’s Hallowe’en.” Jonathan 
Sibley, James Menucci, and Jell* 
Peckham offered “My Jack O’Lan- 
tern” as their contribution; and 
the last of the group was “Octo- 
ber,” recited by 

Linda Nelson 
Ronnie Keane 
Pamela Raymond 
Marie Scalesse 
Floyd Lever 
Lee Hakanson 
Richard Clarke 

Following the poems, the class 
sang two Hallowe’en songs, and 
then came the climax to the pro- 
gram, an amusing play entitled, 
“Problem Goblin.” Members of the 
cast included 

Ruth Bcckley 
Jane Farnuni 
Stephen Wardwell 
Kearin Richmond 
Janet Millican 
Russell Hart 
Jim Eliassen 
Mary Lou Haley 
Albert Campagna 
Robert Sulmonetti 

The setting, an eerie spot in the 
woods near the goblins’ cave, added 
much to the atmosphere. 

The final number on the program 
was the dance, ‘I’m Not Afraid of 
Anything.” The assistance of Mrs. 
Dana Kelly, who played the piano 
accompaniment, was much appre- 
ciated, ns was the help of sixth- 
grader John Ilosmer, who acted as 
stage manuger.

man Relations in New Haven.

enjoyed an occasional informal visit 
with Mr. Cart when he has accom- 
panied Dr. and Mrs. Cart at Forum 
functions, and arc looking forward

FIRE AT HOME FOR AGED 


What might have been a serious 
fire at the Home for Aged People 
was discovered shortly after 6 o'- 
clock Monday evening. Box 241 be- 
ing sounded at 6:07 p. m. 

Engines I and II with the Ladder 
Truck and a crew under Captain 
Frank Amico made the short trip 
from the Central Station to the 
Home just as six o’clock commuters 
and traffic were crowding the cen- 
ter. 

At the home they found the fire 
had originated in a carrying beam 
under the first floor beneath a first 
floor bath-room near the rear din- 
ing room. It was still for the most 
part in the smouldering stage, but 
there had been sufficient lire to 
burn a good section of the beam and 
eat up around the pipes into the 
bath-room. 

The firefighters confined the fire 
to the area in which it started, 
using a booster line and smoke 
ejectors to rid the home of smoke 
All the men agreed the lire had 
good possibilities and had it oc- 
curred later at night might have 
reached serious proportions. 

It was 7:40 before the crews fin- 
ished mopping and cleaning up and 
were satisfied there was no lire left 
in the partition affected. No es- 
timate of the damage done was 
made public.

With world attention focused on 
Korea and Indochina, the National 
Geographic Society has issued a 
new map of the strategic lands 
along a 2,200-mile sweep of the 
Far East. 

“China Coast and Korea” is the 
title of the 10-color, 26-by-41 , /2 
inch map. It covers an area from 
Russia’s port of Vladivostok south 
to Laos State in Indochina, and 
from northern Japan to Manila. It 
shows the Sea of Japan, the Yellow 
Sea, the East and South China 
Seas, and far reaches of the Pacific. 

Battle Landmarks 

Splitting Korea, a red line indi- 
cates the 2 V& -mile- wide buffer zone 
established by the truce signed last 
July 27 at Panmunjon. Heart- 
break Ridge, Old Baldy, Bunker 
Hill, the Punch Bowl, Sniper Ridge 
and other scenes of hitter and cost- 
ly fighting along this line are pin- 
pointed. 

To the south, the map charts the 
three main offshore garrisons that 
serve as springboards for Chinese 
Nationalist guerrila raids on Red- 
held China. They are the Tachen 
Archipelago, Matsu Island, and the 
neighboring islands of Quemoy and 
Little Quemoy — all in the For- 
mosa Strait. Nationalist forces 
additionally hold some 30 other 
islands off the China coast, plus 
Formosa and its offshore lands. 

The Viet Nam towns of Hanoi 
and Dien Bien Phu in Indochina’s 
northernmost corner are focal 
points of fighting between Commu- 
nist forces and French troops. 
Here, in the rice rich Rouge River 
Delta, as many as 1,400 persons 
crowd the square mile. 

Slant Technique 

The new map marks the first 
time the Society’s cartographers 
have used an oblique Mercator pro- 
jection, computed for the great cir- 
cle running through the center. 

Because the maximum map size 
is fixed by the size of the presses, 
cartographers put China on an 
angle to increase the scale to 55 
miles to the inch. If China had 
been shown the usual way, with 
north at the top, the scale would 
have been considerably smaller — 
about 100 miles to the inch. 

A novel relief method was also 
employed. Mountains are shaded 
in blue and yellow — blue on the 
shadow side and yellow on the 
light, assuming the light comes 
from the northwest. In the Far 
East, where mountains dominate 
the lund, the color scheme aids 
visuul interpretation. 

In water areas, six shades of blue 
are used to indicate depth contours 
, of the ocean floor — the lightest 
for the shallow continental shelf, 
j darker shades for the deeper 
waters. 

The new map carries 6,234 place 
! names. Multiplicity of place-name 
i spellings provided a major problem 
for National Geographic carto- 
• graphers. Tientsin, for example, 
may be spelled three different 
ways; for Penki, in Manchuria, 
there are a dozen other spellings. 

The Society's 2,150,000 members 
have sent the map as a supplement 
to the October issue of the National 
Geographic Magazine. 

The Soo Canals at Saulte Ste. 
Marie carry more traffic than the 
Panama and Suez Canals put to- 
gether. Great Lakes shipping 
makes this artery, and the Detroit 
and St. Clair Rivers between Lake 
Huron and Luke Erie, the busiest 
waterways on earth, the Nutional

j Saint e Marie is French for “St. 
Mary’s Leap.”

original lv in Waltham years ago! 
Marvel at the famous Trampoline 
Act that will thrill young and old 
along the parade route! 

The parade will feature also five 
beautifully decorated floats, spe- 
cially designed for the celebration 
of Santa’s arrival in Waltham. One 
of the floats will represent the tra- 
ditional Nativity scene. 

Still another special event will be 
the marching prize dogs, applauded 
in a previous Grover Cronin parade 
and brought back for the Santa 
Parade by popular demand.

METHODIST LOYALTY SUNDAY 

Every Methodist family is strong- 
ly urged to make every efTort to 
attend this coming Sunday morning 
service which will he designated in 
the Protestant churches of the 
community as Loyalty Sunday. 

Church membership in the United 
States has almost reached the one 
hundred million mark, which is a 
tremendous increase in numbers 
and more important, a sharp in- 
crease in the percentage of the 
population. 

With all the activities of the 
church program, the Crawford 
Memorial Methodist Church is plac- 
ing a stress on the public worship 
of God. Consequently, church at- 
tendance this Fall has increased 
and people are becoming more 
aware of this as a vital part of one’s 
life. 

The pastor, Rev. John Snook, Jr., 
is speaking on the subject, “Your 
Giving Proves Your Living.” Mem- 
bers and friends are again invited 
to attend church as a public wit- 
ness to one’s belief and faith in the 
church, the Greatest Hope For The 
World.

NEW SOLDIERS SWORN IN 

Nineteen students of the East 
Coast Aero Tech School were sworn 
into the Enlisted Reserve Corps of 
the Army Reserve on November 
3 at the school in Bedford by Brig. 
Gen. Ralph A. Palladino of North 
Gateway, commanding general, 
94th Infantry Division, U. S. Army 
Reserve. The new soldiers are mem- 
bers of the new Provisional De- 
tachment (Air) of the 94th Infan- 
try Division, Reserve. 

The incident has further Win- 
chester interest in the fact that 
Captain Donald Van Hoosen, com- 
manding officer of the Provisional 
Company, makes his home at 49 
Allen road.

WINCHESTER HISTORICAL 
SPEAKER GAVE FINE TALK 

“China of the White House”, a 
dramatic and enlightening talk on 
t lie story of the table china selected 
by various Presidents and their 
ladies — with many “behind the 
scenes” stories of those presidents 
and their times — provided the 
opening meeting of the Winchester 
Historical Society, Saturday after- 
noon, November 7, with a wealth of 
historical information. The speak- 
er was Mrs. Dorothy Waterhouse 
of Boston, who had acquired slides 
of the White House china, from Mr. 
Washington to Mr. Truman, by 
diligent research in every part of 
the country, from museums and 
desccndents. Mrs. Waterhouse her- 
self owns several fine pieces of 
White House china, which she ex- 
hibited last Saturday. Miss Clara 
R. Russell presided. In spite of the 
heavy rains and wind, the meeting 
was well attended by members and 
guests. 

Mrs. Waterhouse’s first slide was 
of two rare Canton salts, owned by 
George Washington, followed by the 
renowned Sunburst Pattern china 
(cup and saucer) of Martha Wash- 
ington. From Abigail Adams 
regime, she showed the exquisite 
corn-flower pattern French china; 
from the beauty Dolly Madison, she 
showed the Madison china pattern, 
abetted by several delightful stories 
of this social leader and charmer of 
her day; James Monroe’s famed 
china with the eagle design, Jack- 
son's heavy gold-rimmed china, and 
Van Buren’s most elegant French 
china all were shown to the au- 
dience. Lincoln’s china which he 
chose for the White House was fas- 
cinating, and tinged with sadness, 
for on his china there was the proud 
American eagle, with a cloud over 
its head, a sun breaking through 
in the distance, and the eagle faced 
the arrows in its claw, a symbol of 
war. 

It was Woodrpw Wilson who first 
used American china in the White 
House, Lenox china, a fine porcelain 
ordered by succeeding Presidents; 
and F. D. R. was the first President 
to use his family coat of arms plus 
the national emblem on his china. 
To Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, Mrs. 
Waterhouse gave full credit for a 
superb and unpublicized task, that 
of assembling odd pieces of White 
House china, and cataloging them 
for posterity.

HIGH WIND LAST SATURDAY 

High wind and driving rain made 
last Saturday forenoon one of the 
worst encountered in town for some 
time. 

In the center the wind blew the 
glass from show windows at the 
Dorothy Muriel Bakery on Thomp- 
son street, the Fire Department go- 
ing to make temporary repairs as 
a safety precaution. 

Elsewhere in town a tree was 
blown down against wires on Wash- 
ington street at Englewood road, 
and a large limb wus blown from a 
tree bringing down wires on Grove 
street neai Symmes corner. A limb 
of a tree and telephone wires were 
blown down on Herrick street and 
a large limb was blown down op- 
posite 164 Cambridge street. Live 
wires were also blown down on 
Sv ant on t 1 oet bet woi n I <oi inj a\ o

“Charlie” Koch, popular mana- 
ger of the Winchester Sports Shop, 
who was injured in an automobile 
accident last week Thursday at the 
junction of the Lynn Fellsway with 
the Fellsway in Medford, returned 
to his home last Friday evening 
after an overnight stay at the Mal- 
den Hospital. “Charlie” is under 
the care of his fellow townsman, 
Dr. Clark Staples, who assures him 
there will be no permanent ill ef- 
fects from the accident. 

“Charlie” was driving his new 
beachwagon on the Medford Fells- 
way toward Malden, and was mak- 
ing a left turn from the Fellsway 
into Charles street when his ma- 
chine was struck on the left side 
between the fender and door by a 
New Hampshire registered car 
driven by a woman, crossing the 
trolley intersection. 

In an attempt to avoid the acci- 
dent ‘Charlie” swung his car sharp- 
ly to the right, and this and the 
impact twisted his head so far to 
the right that his neck locked und 
he could not raise his head from his 
right shoulder, lie also sustained 
painful back injuries and partial 
paralysis. The driver of the other 
car was not hurt. 

“Charlie” was taken from his 
machine by Metropolitan police 
and taken in their ambulance to the 
Malden Hospital, where he was 
treated by Dr. Staples. He still can- 
not move his head to one side and 
is bothered by his back. He hopes, 
however, to be out and about soon.

INJURED 

IN WEST SIDE ACCIDENT 

The three occupants of a Chev- 
rolet sedan were taken to the Sym- 
mes Arlington Hospital early Sat- 
urday morning when the machine 
got out of control in making a turn 
f rom Lockeland road to Ridge street

of the Locke property there. 

Police say the car was owned hy 
Edward Doherty of 14 Wade ave-

the three women taken to the Sym- 
mes Hospital by passing motorists.

CAR HELD FOR DAD 


Wednesday morning at 1:15 
Officers John Boyle and William 
Haggerty picked up three colored 
boys whom they found in a car 
parked in front of the Winchester 
Motors parking lot. 

The operator, a 16 year old Rox- 
bury hoy, had neither license nor 
registration for the Lincoln sedan 
in which the hoys were sitting, but 
told the police he was driving on 
the license of one of the other hoys, 
a 17 year old Roxbury youth. The 
Lincoln was the property of the 
operator’s father, who told the po- 
lice it had been taken without au- 
thority. It was held for his arrival 
in town and the boys sent home.

OLD RIVALS MEET 

WINCHESTER ANI) WOBURN 
AWAIT THANKSGIVING 
WHISTLE 

Continuing one of the oldest 
schoolboy gridiron rivalries here- 
abouts, a rivalry that goes hack to 
1891, Winchester and Woburn High 
Schools will square away for their 
47th annual football game Thanks- 
giving Day morning on Manchester 
Field with the kickoff at 10:30. 

Winchester is rightly the favor- 
ite this year, despite the fact that 
Woburn is much improved over 
last season. The Tanners have won 
tin •ce, lost three and tied one, while 
last year the Orange failed to win 
a single game. 

Woburn’s wins this year have all 
been convincing, 21-0 over Meth- 
uen, 20-0 over Reading and 27-6 
over Winthrop. Last Saturday the 
Tanners should have won their 
scoreless tie with Marblehead. 

For all this, Winchester’s record 
is the better one, the Indians hav- 
ing won six, lost one and tied one. 
Concord upset the Indians, 13-0 in 
the season’s opener, a game the 
locals would dearly love to play 
aguin, and their 13-13 tie with 
Watertown was one of Winchester’s 
better performances of the season. 
Like Woburn against Marblehead, 
Winchester should have won that 
one, only its inexperience prevent- 
ing a victory. 

Undoubtedly Winchester’s best 
performance of the season was last 
Saturday against Wakefield, un 
beaten Class B leader when the In- 
dians took them on. That 28-13 
win over a team with supposedly 
the “strongest line” in the Greater 
Boston schoolboy ranks set up the 
locals as one of the best Class B 
teams, and also from the rather 
shaky citadel of comparative 
scores makes the Indians look like 
winners against Woburn. 

The Tanners dropped an early 
season game to Wakefield, 14-0, and 
against the the other three teams 
met in common, Winchester would 
also seem to have the edge, at least 


MISS ETHEL M. ROBERTS 


Miss Ethel M. Roberts of 5 Lewis 
road, former executive secretary of 
the Publicity Department of the 
Episcopal Diocese of Massachu- 
setts, died suddenly at her home 
Saturday, November 14. 

Miss Roberts was the daughter 
of James, and Martilla (Richie) 


SHARON - STODDARD 

There is Winchester interest in 
the marriage which took place at 
the Church of the Good Shepherd 
in Reading Saturday evening, No- 
vember 14, when Miss Janet Paul- 
ine Stoddard, daughter of Mr. and 
Mrs. Homer B. Stoddard of 46 Up- 
land road, Melrose, became the 
bride of Robert Kenneth Sharon, 
son of Mrs. Alfred Denley of 28 
Maxwell road. Rev. Herbert A. 
Jerauld read the 8 o’clock double- 
ring service in an attractive set- 
ting of white chrysanthemums and 
candles. Richard Bond, organist, 
played the bridal music. 

Miss Stoddard was given in mar- 
riage by her father und was at- 
tended by her sister, Miss Carolyn 
Stoddard of Melrose. 

The bride wore a gown of rose 
yellow satin fashioned with a train 
and a white nylon and lace over- 
skirt, an illusion neckline and short 
sleeves. With it she wore matching 
illusion mitts and a fingertip-length 
veil caught to a cap of white lace 
and seed pearls. Instead of a bou- 
quet she carried a prayer book 
with a yellow-throated white or- 
chid and streamers of swansonia. 

The honor maid wore an ankle- 
length dress of bronze taffeta with 
a net overskirt and halter neckline. 
She carried a cascade bouquet of 
bronze chrysanthemums and wore 
the same flowers in her hair.

early life there, graduating from | ushering were John Moore of 
Girls High School in Boston and stoneham, James Morrison of Ma-

she and her mother were living 
abroad she studied art in Europe 
and she painted very acceptably in 
watercolors. 

Miss Roberts became associated 
with the work of the Episcopal 
Church in 1920, and worked with 
the Diocesan Council for 32 years 
until her retirement last January. 

Her work involved contributions 
to the Diocesan magazine, The 
Church Militant; insertion of 
diocesan news in The Churchman 
and The Living Church, distribu- 
tion of pamphlets and operation of 
the Speakers Bureau which wel- 
comed missionaries from all over

She established the Speakers 
Bureau, which flourished under her 
guidance, and she was active both 
in the Women’s Auxiliary and the 
Church Service League. 

A wide reader. Miss Roberts had 
a profound knowledge of English 
literature and a fine command of 
the English language. She was a 
gifted writer, both of prose and j 
verse. 

Miss Roberts had lived in Win- 
chester for the past 20 years, com- 
ing here from Boston. She was the 
last of her family. 

Funeral services were held Wed- 
nesday afternoon in Story Chapel 
of Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cam- 
bridge, where the interment was 
made. The service was read by 
the Rt. Rev. Norman B. Nash, Epis- 
copal Bishop of Massachusetts, as- 
sisted by the Rev. John W. Ellison, 
rector of the Church of the Epi- 


plewood, N. J.; and John Stevenson

ter. 

A reception was held after the 
marriage at the Meadowbrook Golf

of the bride and mother and step- 
father of the bridegroom assisting 
in receiving. Mrs. Stoddard wore 
powder-blue lace with beige acces- 
sories and brown orchids. Mrs. 
Denley wore pink rosebuds and ac- 
cessories with her toast lace and 
net gown. 

After a wedding trip to upper 
New York State Mr. Sharon and 
his bride will live in Winchester at 
‘280 Highland avenue. 

The bride is a graduate of Mal- 
den High School and of the Modern 
School of Fashion and Design. Mr.

Comparative scores are danger- , , ........

perv enough to affect a good offense suffered a second heart attack 
adversely. | from which he failed to rally. 


So in the matter of comparative 
scores, condition and field Winches- 
ter has the advantage. This leaves 
the all important spirit, and in this 
connection Woburn through the 
years has outfought Winchester. 
Come Thanksgiving, the hungry 
Tanners, with two losses and a tie 
in their last three games against 
the Indians will be wanting that 
win badly. They could get it! 
Stranger things have happened! 

Winchester, as it played against 
Wakefield would seem to be beyond 
Woburn’s reach to upset, hut 
whether the Indians can get as far 
along the warpath as they were 
last Saturday is a question. 

We still like ’em and everything 
considered they should win. We’d 
feel more secure with Jimmy Cu- 
sack in the middle of that line to 
guard against those fullback traps 
the Orange has always used so 
effectively against Winchester, and 
of course our fingers are crossed 
while we wait for the scholastic 
grades of the players.

some years in Wakefield. 

He came to Winchester in June 
of 1919, and lived at 8 Nelson street 
until he entered the Home April 
30, 1930. He was employed at 
Beggs & Cobb until he retired dur- 
ing 1929. 

Mr. Cushing entered the Home 
with bis wife, Lillian Augusta 
Cushing, who died in June of 1934. 
Both were valued members of the 
family, and Mr. Cushing, while his 
health permitted, was active about 
the Home and grounds, caring for 
t lu* lawns and gardens. He took a 
great pride in whatever he at- 
tempted and was a perfectionist in 
his work. 

Mr. Cushing was a familiar 
figure about the center and liked j 
by all who knew him, his cheery 
smile and greeting being known to 
citizens in all walks of life. He 
was a member of the First Congre- 
gational Church. He leaves no 
immediate family. 

Funeral services were held at the 
Kimball Chapel Tuesday afternoon 
with Dr. Dwight L. Cart, minister 
of the First Congregational Church, 
officiating. Burial was in Wildwood 
Cemetery. 


At the immaculate Conception 
Church on Saturday morning. No- 
vember 7, Miss Grace Marie Hen 
nelly, niece of Mrs. Mary Etheridge 
of 22 Buckman street, Woburn, be- 
came the bride of Norbert Forest 
Mondovillc, son of Mr. and Mrs. 
Arthur R. Mandeville of 614 Main 
street. The pastor of the church, 
Rev. Fr. Herbert K. A. Driscoll, 
officiated at the 10 o’clock ceremony 
was also celebrant of the nuptial 
mass which followed. 

Miss Hennclly was given in mar- 
riage by her brother, Francis Hen- 
nelly, and attended by her sister, 
Miss Eugenia Hennelly, both of 
Woburn. 

John D. Mandeville of Woburn 
was best man for his brother and 
the ushers were Douglas Rae and 
Thomas Cogan, both of Winchester. 

The bride wore a traditional 
gown of white satin with inserts of 
lace at the sweetheart neckline and 
fashioned with long sleeves and a 
train. Her bridal veil was caught 
to a matching half-crown and she 
carried a cascade bouquet of 
stephanotis and pompons center- 
ed with an orchid und tied with 
white tulle and streamers. 

The honor maid wore a full- 
length dress of iridescent green 
taffeta with matching headpiece 
und green satin shoes. Her flowers 
were bronze and yellow pompons 
tied with yellow ribbons and tulle. 

A reception was held after the 
ceremony at VFW Hall in Win- 
chester with the bride’s aunt and 
the parents of the bridegroom as- 
sisting in receiving. Mrs. Ether- 
idge wore royal blue with black 
accessories. Mrs. Mandeville wore 
a rose dress and hat with gun- 
metal shoes and carried a gun- 
metal purse. 

After a wedding trip to New 
Hampshire Mr. and Mrs. Mande- 
ville will live in Stoneham at 21 
Summer Hill street. 

The bride is a graduate of Wo- 
burn High School, class of 1950. 
Mr. Mandeville, who is a fireman 
on the Boston & Maine Railroad, 
| graduated from Winchester High 
School in 1946. 


It took 147 town meeting mem- 
bers 45 minutes at a special ses- 
sion Monday evening to vote 
unanimously to appropriate $1»- 
886,256.00 to remodel and construct 
additions to the present junior high 
school building which is now to be- 
come a four year senior high school. 

Those in the balconies and rear 
of the ball burst into applause as 
they saw all the town meeting 
members on their feet when the 
vote was put. No one spoke in 
opposition to the recommendations 
of the Building Committee for Ad- 
ditional facilities for the Senior 
and Junior High schools, which 
were virtually accepted last March, 
when their plans for the secondary 
schools were explained in detail. 
Thursday’s meeting was called :<> 
appropriate the funds necessary to 
do the actual work involved in the 
change-over. 

Mr. Speers, chairman of the 
Building Committee, did a masterly 
job of explaining the ramifications 
of the plan’s financing, so as to take 
advantage of State aid. He ex- 
plained that the cost of the work 
greater than estimated, but stated 
that in any construction, from a 
small house up, the cost of actual 
construction is always greater, 
sometimes by as much as 100 per- 
cent. 

In case of the school addition Mr. 
Speers felt the increase very rea- 
sonable and he also felt that with 
ten bidders, the low bidder, low by 
$60,01)0 and the other nine bids 
within a span of $50,000 the con 
tractors were unusually close to- 
gether in their estimates of the 
cost of the job. Low bidder wa 
J. F. Rand & Son. 

Mr. Speers explained that the 
cost of the school construction over 
the 20 year period covered by the 
bond issue will add an estimated top 
$2.78 to the tax rate the first year 
and will taper off to $1.83 in 1974, 
though he expects the actual in- 
crease in tax rate will be less. 

The plans for the remodelling 
and new construction have not been 
materially changed from those pre- 
sented to the last March meeting. 
There have been some changes, but 
they are in all cases minor and 
more in the nature of refinements 
or improvements suggested as the 
actual working specifications were 
produced. The speaker was very 
positive on this point and also on 
the remodelling of the Senior High 
School to house a two year junior 
high school. He scored the reports 
that the senior high work is to be 
abandoned to force the construction 
of an entirely new building and ex- 
plained the delay in the senior high 
work is for the purpose of having 
a place to put pupils while the 
work at the junior high building is 
in progress. 

In connection with the remodel- 
ling of the present high school Mr. 
Speers said that Architect Jerome 
Bailey Foster has been instructed 
to have his plans and specifications 
ready by February 1, although the 
job can not be done prior to 1955. 
Estimated cost of this work is 
$300,000, and it is believed that the 
actual cost will be very close to this 
figure. Unfortunately the job is 
going to take much longer to do 
than the original estimate of a 
single summer.

Tomorrow, November 21st, is 
"Fair Day” in Winchester. All 
day and evening, starting at 10 
a. m. the members of the First Bap- 
tist Church expect to welcome 
hundreds of happy gift and bargain 
hunters from Winchester and for 
miles around, to their gala, color- 
ful Harvest Fair. 

"This year’s fair,” according to 
Mrs. Elizabeth McLeod, Fair Chair- 
man, will he bigger and better than 
ever, with just about everything 
anyone could desire in the way of 
gifts, food, toys, novelties, white 
elephants, rare and unusual ar- 
ticles, one-of-a-kind items, and just 
plain ‘bargains’. Visitors will en- 
joy wandering from booth to booth, 
looking over the intercsing dis- 
plays. They won’t want to miss 
the children’s booth or the exciting 
gift exhibit. Then there’s the food 
booth, the apron table, the doll, 
candy, jewelry, scout and plant dis- 
plays. And of course, no fair would 
bo complete without a grab bag and 
a soda-pop stand. ‘Up-The-Attic- 
Stairs’, one of last year’s most 
popular attractions, will be repeat- 
ed again this year with an even 
wider selection of old and unusual 
articles for sale. And probably the 
biggest attraction of all will be the 
General Store ,with a really won- 
derful stock of worthwhile ‘buys’. 
Last but not least, there’s the Par- 
cel Post Booth featuring articles 
mailed to the fair from all over the 
nation and even from foreign lands, 
still in their original, unbroken 
mailing wrappings. It’s also a 
wonderful opportunity to do some 
pleasant and convenient Christmas 
shopping and collect some gifts 
that are really distinctive and ap- 1 
pealing,” concluded Mrs. McLeod.; 

Fair visitors are also invited to 
enjoy the delicious luncheon which 
will he served between 12 and 1 
o’clock, at the reasonable charge of | 
75 cents. Another highlight of the 
Fair will be the New England Sup- 
per, 5:30 to 7:00 p. ni. Many reser- 
vations have already been made, 
but tickets can still be obtained by 
calling or visiting G. A. Josephson’s 
real estate olfice, next to Star office, 
Winchester 6-2426. Tickets, Adults 
99 cents, children twelve years of 
age or under, 50 cents. Supper 
tickets may also be purchased at 
the door if desired. 

No doubt about it, First Baptist’s 
Harvest Fair promises to be a real 
‘‘hum-dinger”. Don’t forget, it’s 
Tomorrow, November 21. Why not 
plan to drop in at the Baptist 
I Church and ‘‘visit the fair”? You’ll

that in the interest of long range

future growth there instead of in 
the vicinity of the Parkhurst

Mr. Bonnell questioned the child

school authorities and stressed the 
fact that the planning expert which 
his Board had engaged felt the

UNITARIAN PLAYERS PRESENT 
"THE MALE ANIMAL’’ 


A fine cast brought “The Male 
Animal” to the stage of the Uni- 
tarian Church Inst Friday and Sat- 
urday nights. James Thurber and 
Elliott Nugent have stated the case 
for freedom of speech in this 
sparkling piece more tellingly than 
more weighty words could, for it is 
the story of how the defense of this 
principle threatened one man with 
the loss of his job and his wife. 

The play, directed by John R. 
Woodruff, built up momentum 
steadily until the very impressive 
third act climax and the main char- 
acters became a well-knit unit 
showing each other off to good ad- 
vantage. 

As Tommy Turner, the young 
English professor who finds that 
standing firm for his beliefs is more 
important than his security, Brad- 
ford Darling gave a sensitive per- 
formance which brought out the 
basic seriousness of the man, his 
rueful and intelligent humor and 
his bewilderment at that uncertain 
quantity, his wife. Bettina Har- 
rison was very much at ease in the 
role of pretty, practical Ellen Tur- 
ner, who tended to patronize her 
absent-minded husband and then 
woke up to find that he was a hero 
in his own quiet hut articulate way. 
Completing this triangle was Joe 
Ferguson, the former football star, 
who thought he was returning to 
his alma mater for a carefree week 
end and suddenly found himself en- 
tangled in the Turners’ marital 
affairs. Thornton Stearns made 
Joe a very appealing figure, obtuse 
at times, gregarious and unwary 
as a puppy dog, hut always thor- 
oughly likable. As Ed Keller, the 
college trustee who thought he 
could dictate his own version of 
“Americanism”, Harry Wood gave 
a funny hut sometimes frightening 
picture of a man insulated against 
all new ideas. 

The younger generation in the 
play did not lack for emotional 
crises. William Symmes inter- 
preted with a fine troubled earnest- 
ness the role of Michael Barnes, the 
young student whose fiery editorial 
started the trouble at Midwestern. 
Diana Mansfield added just the 
right touch of teenage superiority 
as Ellen’s kid sister, and Robert 
McMaster played the current foot- 
ball hero in relaxed fashion. 

Robert Eddy was convincing as 
an older faculty member hesitat- 
ing between caution and courage. 
As Cleota, the Turners’ maid, Dor- 
othy Abbott was on hand to add to 
the gaiety and block the communi- 
cations system. Others very much 
involved with life at Midwestern 
were Muriel Dantona as Mrs. 
Damon, Charlotte Burr as Myrtle 
Keller, and Madeleine Blair as 
Nutsy Miller. 

The comfortable living room with 
its champagne walls and long win- 
dows was a bright and appropriate 
setting. 


NEEDLEWORK GUILD 
THANKS ITS MEMBERS 


The Winchester Branch of the 
Needlework Guild of America 
wishes to thank its members sin- 
cerely for giving so generously to 
its “Ingathering” November 12th 
at the Second Congregational 
Church. It takes time to make this 
personal gift hut it is an oppor- 
tunity, too, and a blessing to the 
giver and receiver. To give one’s 
best to those who need it most, is 
a satisfaction. 

Spread on tables around the hall 
were the 723 articles in their fresh 
newness. They ran the gamut from 
I blankets to mittens; from hoys’ 
sweaters to babies’ sacks and from 
j dungarees to diapers, 
i It seemed most suitable to have 
! the annual meeting of the Branch 
surrounded with the gfts which are 
| its purpose. The hall was filled to 
capacity with the largest attend- 
ance in many years. More than se- 
venty enthusiastic members con- 
; ducted their business with interest. 
Mrs. Ellsworth Snow, nominating 
committee chairman, reported. Mrs. 
Wayne Thompson retired from the 
presidency and Mrs. Gilbert Tap- 
icv became the new president. 

It was especially interesting to 
meet the Reverend John Skeirik, 
the new minister of the Second 
Congregational Church and to hear 
him speak with real conviction on 
the Holiness of Charity. 

There, to receive and later to 
distribute the gifts from the “In- 
gathering” to those who need them, 
were Mrs. Doris Wiklund, It. N., 
and Miss Phyllis Tucker, R. N., 
from the Winchester District Nurs- 
ing Association; Mrs. Mary J. Lyng 
and Miss Nellie Sullivan of the 
Winchester Welfare Department; 
Mrs. Alice V. Murray, It. N., the 
Public Health nurse; Miss Natha- 
lie Jewett of the Red Cross; Mrs. 
Maude WollofT for the Home for 
the Aged; and the representatives 
of the various churches. 

A delicious tea was served by 
Mrs. Rony Snyder and her commit- 
tee. 

The officers for 1953-54 are: 

President — Mrs. Gilbert Tapley 

Vice President — Mrs. Rony Sny- 
der 

Secretary — Mrs. Ben It. Schnei- 
der 

Treasurer — Mrs. Edward Winn

BELLINO STAR OF WEEK 


1 Joe Bellino, outstandinK sopho- 
more left halfback on the Winches- 
ter High School football team, was 
selected by the Boston Post as its 
Schoolboy Star of the Week after 
his great performance against 
Wakefield last Saturday afternoon. 

“Joe” scored two touchdowns 
against Wakefield, one of them on 
a sparkling 29-yard run that in- 
cluded some of the finest faking 
local fans have seen all season. The 
sturdy sophomore, younger brother 
of Sammy and Moose Bellino, for- 
mer high school hackfield stars, has 
been a consistent scorer all season, 
having racked up 61 points in eight 
games. 

lie is undoubtedly one of the host 
sophomore prospects Winchester 
has had in years and at L» is the 
youngest hoy ever to he picked as 
Star of the Week by tl*c Post.

JIM CUSACK BREAKS LEG 
IN GREAT 28-13 VICTOR* 

Completely undisturbed by con- 
stant reports of Wakefield’s invin- 
cibility, of Wakefield’s mighty line, 
of Wakefield’s elusive hall carriers, 
and of Wakefield’s supreme confi- 
dence, Uenny Knowfton'a team, 
moving with the power and preci- 
sion of a well-oiled machine, crush- 
ed Wakefield with a display of pow- 
er and determination against which 
the boys from Wakefield were all 
hut helpless. The final score of 28 
j to 13 was not a true index of the 
j relative ability of the two teams. 
Even the highly partisan crowd of 
hopeful Wakefield fans were will- 
| ing to concede that their favorites 
| were lucky to score at all. 

This was no victory of individual 
stars, although Joe Bellino. Mike 
, Murphy, Boh Haggerty, and Pave 
; Pratt played stellar roles in touch- 
| down drives. This was a team vic- 
tory from start to finish. 

Facing what was reputed to he 
the best line and the two best de- 
fensive ends in high school ranks 
hereabouts, Dave Pratt, Winches- 
ter quarterback, calmly called lor 
cross bucks through the tackle and 
guard positions and for pitchouts 
to Bellino and Murphy for a grand 
total of 228 yards advance from 
scrimmage. 

On each of sixteen ground plays 
through Wakefield’s line or around 
the ends, Bellino, Murphy, Hagger- 
ty, and Pratt racked up five yards 
or better, the longest drive being 
Bob Haggerty’s flash through left 
tackle on a cross buck for 45 yards. 
In contrast, Wakefield’s highly 
scouted scatbacks were able to pick 
Up a total of only 78 yards. 

As far as Winchester fans are 
concerned, they can throw away 
all Class B ratings. Winchester will 
not be awarded the Class B. cham- 
pionship this fall, but those who 
saw the game last Saturday at 
Wakefield, whether they were 
Wakefield or Winchester support- 
ers, came away aware of the fact 
that they had seen the best foot- 
ball team in Class B on that day. 

Perhaps one little incident among 
many might be cited as a clue to 
the character of Winchester’s play 
from the beginning of the game. 
On the very first play Mike Murphy 
was forced to retire to the side- 
lines for treatment of a bloody cut 
in the face, and at once there were 
some who were predicting “cur- 
tains” for Winchester. 

On the -third play after that, the 
same Mr. Murphy, who had return- 
ed to the game unnoticed by your 
reporter, broke into the Wakefield 
hackfield and stopped left halfback 
Jeffrey in hi» tracks with a jolting 
tackle, which prompted the 145- 
pound scat-hack to remain prone 
on the ground while he tried to 
remember what day of the week it 
was. 

On both ofTensc and defense, 
Mike was a bearcat, ploughing 
roughshod through the Wakefield 
line for consistent gains and raging 
up and down behind his own line 
on defense, snarling at his mates to 
do their stuff, with the result that 
the Winchester line gave the crowd 
the finest sample of rugged line 
play seen this season.

Even the loss of Jim Cusack, 
veteran star guard from the line 
near the close of the first half did- 
n’t discourage his mates. As a mat- 
ter of fact, it may have added to 
their determination to “win this 
one tor Jim.” Denny Doucette, who 
replaced Jim at guard and who had 
had the misfortune to suffer a 
broken front tooth in scrimmage 
two days before, did a fine job fill- 
ing Jim’s shoes for the remainder 
of the game. 

It is not the purpose of the writ- 
er to suggest that Wakefield field- 
ed a weak or a poorly coached team 
last Saturday. Any team which is 
scored upon only once in six games 
can’t he laughed off. 

Wakefield fans had every reason 
to be proud of their team and to 
anticipate another victory as the 
two teams lined up for the kick- 
oil’. W akefield had scored 137 points 
m six games against only 6 by 
their opponents. Winchester in se- 
ven games had totaled 167 points 
against 77 by opponents Wakefield 
had beaten Stoneham by three 
touchdowns, while Winchester had 
beaten the same team by only two. 
Wakefield trounced Melrose 34 to 
0, while Winchester had squeezed 
by Melrose with a 20 to 13 score. 

Most of Wakefield’s first team 
had journeyed to Winchester on 
Monday to watch Winchester heat 
Belmont 28 to 13, hut because our 1 
seconds played most of the second 
half, the hoys from Wakefield may | 
well have carried away a false idea 
of Winchester’s power. They may : 
have been over-confident last Sat- 1 
urday — and who could blame 
them ? It just wasn’t Wakefield’s 
day for football. They couldn’t have 
realized what kind of football team 
they were facing when the whistle 
blew for the first kick-off, hut the 
game wasn’t many minutes old be- 
fore they were aware of- the fact 
that they has been tossed into a 
cage of wildcats. 

In Ralph Tropeano, 143-pound 
right halfback, Wakefield showed a 
clever and shifty open-field runner, 
hut he was able to flash on only 
one occasion, so successfully wus 
he bottled up by Winchester’s 
charging ends and tackles. On his 
one successful dash of 28 yards into 
the clear his scoring plans were 
rudely upset by a fine saving tackle 
by Dave Pratt. 

Winchester wasted little time in 
the first quarter. After forcing 
Wakefield to punt twice, the In- 
dians showed their offensive power 
in a 56-yard drive from their own 
10-yard line to score on a pretty 
pitchout to Bellino from the one- 
yard line. This scoring play had 
been set up by a 36-yard pass to 
Bellino, who caught the hall over 
his shoulder and caromed off two 
defenders to the one-yard line. 

Wakefield’s first score came in 
the second quarter when, after 
Tropeano’s 28-yard end sweep, in- 
terference by Winchester was call- 
ed on a pass into the end zone, giv- 
ing Wakefield a first down on 
Winchester’s one-yard line. Boh 
Bisaere scored through the line on 
second down. Wakefield’s final 
score came as the result of rather 
sketchy pass defense on the part 
of the Winchester substitute hacks 
in the final quarter. 

Dave Rotundi, substitute full- 
back for Winchester, kicked four 
consecutive goals after touchdowns. 
And that was on top of kicking 
four straight against Belmont on 
the previous Monday! Eight 
straight isn’t bad! Bill Ross piloted 
the seconds during much of the 
final quarter and, while Wakefield 
was able to score on them, the sec- 
onds played as if they meant busi- 
ness. 

A great deal of credit should be 
given to the officials of the game: 
James Jordan, Roco Lasala, James 
McGuinness, and Joseph Duffy, all 
of whom did a fine job in keeping 
the game in control from stall to 
finish, in spite of the intense feel- 
ing which the game had inspired 
and in spite of the hard-hitting 
tactics used by both teams. The 
game was cleanly played, although 
seventeen penalties were handed 
out for various offenses, with Win- 
chester receiving the lion’s share 
of twelve. Of the seventeen penal- 
ties, only two were for unnecessary 
roughness. 

During the game Winchester 
used thirty-four players as against 
Wakefield’s twenty-one. And once 
more, let it be remembered that 
this was u team victory and a mag- 
nificent one, reflecting great credit 
on players and coaches alike, 
j Which brings us down to the last 
game of the season, the annual 
Thanksgiving Day game with Wo- 
burn. It will he our last chance to 
watch a team that started slow 
hut that has improved rapidly and 
tremendously from game to game 
until they can hold up their heads 
with any team which has repre- 
sented Winchester for many years. 

Wakefield won the toss and 
chose to receive. 

Riordan kicked off to Tropeano 
on the Wakefield 17. Tropeano 
made a nice runback to the Wake- 
field 37, Jeffrey made good yardage 
on first down at right end, but a 
hack-in-motion penalty put the hull 
hack on Wakefield’s 32 yard line. 
On second down, Jeffrey made five 
yards at right end. Tropeano made 
only one at right tackle, and on 
third down Jeffrey was stopped by 
a jolting tackle by Murphy for a 
loss of a yard. On fourth down 
Montgomery punted to Bellino on 
the Winchester 27, where he was 
; stopped with no run-back. 

Murphy made a yard at left 
guurd and Bellino carried 14 yards 
for a first down on the 42. 

Cusack recovered a Winchester 
; fumble on the next play. A hack- 
in-motion nullified a short gain by 
i Bellino on second down, hut Joe 
• picked up five yards on a cross 
buck, and on third down made two 
| more at right end. On 4th down 
Bellino punted, a beautiful kiek 
that rolled out of hounds on the 
Wakefield five yard line. 

On two rushes Wakefield picked 
up only three yards, and Mont- 
gomery got away a quick kick on 
third down that went over Bellino’s 

head and rolled dead on the Win- 
chester 44. 

Pratt made six yards through 
center to the 50. Bellino made one 
at left guard, and Murphy made it 
first down on the Wakefield 44. 

Bellino and Murphy combined 
again in two plays through the 
line for u first down on the Wake- 
field 34 yard line. 

Bellino made three yards on a

cross buck. A hack-in-motion 
penalty on the next play cost five 
yards. Then Pratt, taking advan- 
tage of Wakefield’s packed defense, 
threw a long pass to Bellino, who 
was finally howled over on the 
Wakefield one yard line. 

Pratt and Murphy tried in vain 
to carry through the center of the 
line on two plays. Then on a pitch- 
out Bellino skirted right end for 
the score. Rotundi kicked the 
point after. Score: Winchester 7; 
Wakefield 0. 

Rotundi kicked off to the Wake- 
field 10 yard line, to Bisaere who 
carried the hall hack to the Wake- 
field 39 by some brilliant open- 
field running. A penalty on Win- 
chester for unnecessary roughness 
on the play gave Wakefield fifteen 
more yards and a first down on the 
Winchester 48. 

On first down Tropeano skirted 
left end for 28 yards, being stopped 
by a fine tackle by Pratt, on the 
20 yard line. 

On the next play Tropeano car- 
ried again for 9 yards to the 
eleven. 

Second Quarter 

Jeffrey carried to the 6 yard line 
for a first down and then lost 3 
yards on a line buck. Tropeano 
got hack two through the line. On 
third down Montgomery passed in- 
to the end zone where a Winchester 
defense man was charged with in- 
terference, although he played the 
hall and not the man. This penalty 
gave Wakefield the hall on the one 
yard line for a first down. On two 
line plays Bisaere scored. Bisaere 
missed the try for point after and 
the score was Winchester 7; Wake- 
field 6. 

Haliday kicked off to Bellino, 
who was nailed on the Winchester 
19 yard line, and a clipping penalty 
on Winchester on the play put the 
hall hack on the 4 yard line first 
down. Pratt hit the center of the 
line for 2 yards, then Murphy drove 
to the 17 for a first down. 

Haggerty made five yards at left 
tackle. On a pitchout, Bellino was 
thrown for a seven yard loss. On 
4th down Bellino punted to Mont- 
gomery just over midfield, hut

for roughing the kicker on the play 
and Winchester took the hall for a 
first down on the 30 yard line. 

Murphy made five yards at right 
tackle. Haggerty was held for no 
gain on a line buck. Pratt’s pass 
was intercepted by Wakefield on 
the Wakefield 43 yard line and 
Wakefield took over. 

On a double reverse, Wakefield 
fumbled and Murphy recovered for 
Winchester on tin* Winchester 47. 

In three plays through the off- 
tuckle holes Murphy and Bellino 
carried to a first down on the Wake- 
field 37. 

Pratt hulled through center for 
8 yards to the 29. On second down 
Bellino took a pitchout from Pratt 
and by clever dodging and faking 
went the distance to score standing 
up, a run of 29 yards. Rotundi 
kicked tin* point after. Score: 
Winchest» i . 14; Wakefield, 6. 


Rotundi kicked off to Bonomo on 
the Wakefield II) and the ball was 
run baek to the 36. Montgomery 
failed to find a receiver on a pass 
attempt. On second down he threw j 
a long pass to Fotino deep in Win- * 
Chester territory, hut the big end 
dropped the hall while in the clear.

to skirt the end. On this play Jim 
Cusack suffered a broken leg and 
had to be removed from the game. 
Jeffrey punted out of hounds on the 
Winchester 48. 

Haggerty made one yard on a 1 
cross buck. Bellino lost 10 yards on 
an attempted reverse from Murphy, 
and the half ended with the score I

tercepted by W akefield on their 19 
yard line. 

On the following play O’Brien 
recovered a Wakefield fumble on 
the 14 yard line. 

After making no yardage on 
three line bucks, Pratt missed his

their 16 yard line. 

Mantini stopped Montgomery be- 
hind the line of scrimmage, O’Don- 
nell made two yards at left guard.

Rotundi kicked the point after, 
making the score Winchester, 21;

gomery passed 33 yards to Fotino 
on the Winchester 37. On the next

possession. 

Murphy recovered Bellino’s fum- 
ble on first down on the 15. Mur-

fourth consecutive goal of the 
game. Score: Winchester, 28;

the kick was made over, the hall 
rolling to the Wakefield 15. 

On two line bucks and one pass 
attempt Wakefield made no yard- 
age against the spirited Seconds 
and punted on fourth down to the 
Wakefield 46. 

On three consecutive line plays

HOW MANY DEATHS! 

Editor of the Star: 

The first big announcement by 
the promoters of our Elevated 
Railroad appearing in all the Bos- 
ton and local papers and repeatedly 
circulated was: ‘*100 Deaths in a 
100 Years”, featured below a pic- 
I ture of our Railroad Crossing in 
the Square. 

The most recent frightening ver- 
sion of the Crossing danger ap- 
peared in last week’s Star signed 
by “Chairman of the Committee for 
Grade Crossing Elimination and 
Traffic By-Pass” and reads: “At 
Least 43 Deaths As Result Of Ac- 
cidents The Past 10 Years.” “Rail- 
road Tracks’’- Where? Between 
Here and Boston or Here and New 
York? The Question Concerns The 
Railroad Crossing in Winchester 
Center Only.” “43 Deaths Includ- 
ing 2 Fatalities” — fortunate that 
the remaining 41 deaths were 
imaginary. 

When I stated during our pre- 
vious Referendum that 3 deaths in 
50 years was the accurate number 
I quoted from a letter from the 
general counsel for the Boston & 
Maine Railroad, one of our own 
residents. With thanks to Mr. 
Fletcher for his kind permission, I 
submit herewith the entire letter 
for your information:

We made a couple of errors in 
our Grade Crossing editorial last 
week, and though our corrections 
can come only on the actual refe- 
rendum voting day we still want 
to make them. “Vin” Farnsworth 
called one of the errors to our at- 
tention. At the end of our remarks 
we staled “Nothing like a majority 
of the town’s electorate has voted 
on the overhead tracks proposal.” 
That is a misstatement, and it is 
not what we intended to say. What 
we meant was thut a majority of 
the electorate as yet hasn’t voted 
for the overhead tracks. Mr. Farns- 
worth contends, and he is “so 
right,” that the total of those fa- 
voring and opposing the overhead 
at the time of the ’52 referendum 
constituted a majority of the elec- 
torate. At the time of writing this 
no one had called in to report that 
we said “east side” of the tracks 
in referring to Mr. Lyman’s cost 
of land takings estimate when we 
meant “west side,” where the tem- 
porary tracks will go. We offer our 
apologies for both mistakes. Not as 
an excuse, but in partial extenua- 
tion, may we say that last week 
was quite a week at the Star office. 
There were times when we really 
wondered whether we would make 
the grade, and we do not moan a 
railroad grade, either!

LET S LOOK AT THE RECORD 

Editor of the Star: 

In response to inquiries about the 
basis for the statement “forty-three 
known deaths from accidents on the 
tracks” we are appending a list of 
those accidents. 

Further investigation has in- 
creased the number to forty-seven. 
This list has been compiled from 
police records, old copies of the 
Star and other Bourses which show 
that a majority of the accidents 
occurred in the near vicinity of the 
center. Probably most of them in- 
volved no legal liability on the part 
of the railroad but they are none- 
the-less fatalities resulting from 
accidents on the tracks. 

The list does not include injuries 
or narrow escapes of which there 
have been many.

as a result of accidents on Railroad

Doubtless there is much to be 
said on both sides of the question 
of the removal of soil for sale or 
other purpose from land not in the 
public use. There have very prob- 
ably been abuses of the public in- 
terest in such removal and there 
may be a great need for clarifying 
and, within reason, restricting the 
statute governing such removal in 
Winchester. It was well, we think, 
that the much more stringent re- 
strictions incorporated in the arti- 
cle that came up at Monday’s spe- 
cial town meeting were referred to 
a committee for study and report 
with recommendations; and while 
the committee is at it they should 
carefully consider the advisability 
of having the Board of Appeal ac- 
tually issue permits for soil re- 
moval in the future. The Board of 
Appeul has been and, it would 
seem, should he a judicial body re- 
viewing applications for relief 
from rulings believed too arbitrary 
by those refused permission to do 
this or that by duly constituted 
town officials, a review board, if 
you please, to determine wheth- 
er justice to the community and the 
individual petitioner has been done. 
To have the Appeal Board actually 
issue permits for soil removal 
would seem to leave the petitioner 
with no recourse outside court ae- 
tion should the Board decide not to 
grant his original request. The 
committee studying the proposed 
new law ought to be quite sure this 
is going to work out well. 


Mrs. Alonzo F. Woodside 
42 Lebanon street 
Winchester, Mass. 

Dear Mrs. Woodside: 

You have requested information 
with reference to what the Rail- 
road’s records show as to accidents 
occurring on the Church and Main 
street crossings in the center of 
Winchester. This information as 
drawn from the records of the Rail- 
roads is as follows: 

Our records as to death cases go 
back to 1805. During this time 
there have been three fatal acci- 
dents on the crossing, all caused by 
collisions between trains and high- 
way vehicles. The dates of these 
three are: October 2(’», 1904; Octo- 
, ber 18, 1913, and January 21, 1944. 
| In addition, on November 23, 1949, 
a Miss Elizabeth O’Mally was 
struck by a train and killed near 
the crossing when she was walking 
around the fence in the course of 
an attempt to cross from the out- 
bound to the inbound platform. We 
do not consider that this should bo 
classed as a crossing accident. 

Commencing in 1923, we have 
records of accidents resulting in 
serious injury or damage to prop- 
erty. During the period to 1937 
there were no such found in our 
records. 

Commencing January 1, 1937, we 
have detailed records of all types 
of mishaps. From that date to the 
present, there have been nine in- 
stances of injuries due to pedes- 
trians slipping or stumbling and 
falling while walking across the 
tracks at the crossing, and two in- 
stances of pedestrians being struck 
by the gates coming down. 

In the accident of January 21, 
1944 one person was killed, another 
seriously injured. On November 3, 
1951 there was an automobile col- 
lision on the crossing injuring five 
persons, but so far as our records 
show, there was no train involved. 
In addition, on November 15, 1945 
a train struck a stalled automobile 
on the crossing doing considerable 
damage but not resulting in any 
personal injury. 

In addition to the above, there 
have been several instances of 
automobiles damaging the crossing 
gates or signs, and a few instances 
of malicious mischief by boys. 

The above is the complete story 
so far as it can be ascertained from 
the Railroad’s records. 

Very truly yours,

A MATTER OF RECORD! 


Winchester followers of the high 
school football team were impress- 
ed with the way the Wakefield po- 
lice handled the serious accident 
which befell Jim Cusack, guard on 
the local team, who had the misfor- 
tune to break his leg toward the 
end of the second quarter of play 
in the Wakefield game Saturday. 
The Wakefield police ambulance 
was ready at the field for just such 
an emergency and the injured Win- 
chester player was removed in it to 
the Winchester Hospital with the 
least possible delay, which is im- 
portant in such injuries as he sus- 
tained. Wakefield keeps its ambu- 
lance at the football field each Sat- 
urday that a football game is play- 
ed there, to be ready in case there 
is injury to the players or illness 
or accident in the stands. With two- 
way radio the ambulance is equally 
available for any other use for 
which it may be needed, even 
though it is in readiness at the 
football field. It is simply taken 
there to stand instead of being left 
in the garage. Last Saturday its 
availability meant much to Jim Cu- 
sack, his parents and every Win- 
chester follower of the team. It 
must have given the Wakefield peo- 
ple a lift, too, to know that a boy 
who was an athletic guest of the 
town was being given very neces- 
sary emergency service with the 
least possible delay. Many felt the 


ALTERNATIVES 

Editor of the Star: 

One of the best letters in the Star 
for November Sixth accented the 
point that alternative plans for the 
Grade-Crossing had not been given 
sufficient study. In some cases, 
good ideas have been “brushed 
aside” with the remark, “Ramps 
too steep”. 

From 1945, the writer has given 
more hours, probably to this prob- 
lem, than the average citizen has. 
After all, most of our Town Offi- 
cials do not claim to be engineers 
and have no special qualifications 
enabling them to decide this prob- 
lem for us. The experts do not 
agree, even. 

There are good alternative plans. 
Mr. Kellaway gave generously of 
time and money. Many of us feel 
he had the makings of the best so- 
lution in his plans. His ideas were 
so sound that the B. & M. Engin- 
eering Department based their plan 
on the Kellaway idea of an Over- 
pass (Vehicular) just north of the 
Center. (See Star for January 10, 
1947). 

At about that same time the 
writer offered a plan based on the 
same idea but modified to meet 
changed property conditions over 
the past twenty years. The Mott 
Plan was an attempt to correlate 
several needs that were confronting 
us at the same time, namely, The 
Grade-Crossing Elimination, The 
New High School, a centralized 
school area serving Junior and Se- 
nior High Schools by closing a part 
of south Main street, a Centralized 
Bus Transfer Point and greatly in- 
creased efficiency for the Fire De- 
j partment. The Mott Plan gave a 
quick get-a-way to all parts of 
town. This can still be done if the 
new By-Pass is planned to run from 
the eastern end of old Town Hall 
to a new traffic circle west of the 
Winchester Theatre. 

The above is a variation of the 
scale model you may have seen in 
store windows in past years. 

This modified Kellaway plan 
leaves the tracks alone. Shuts 
them off to lessen the noise and 
dust. Prevents people and pets 
from wandering onto the Railroad 
Right-of-Wftv, diverts through- 
traffic around Center, permits shop-

i Editor of the Star: 

In your editorial of last Friday, 
i you say: “As a matter of fact at 
the 1952 meeting Mr. Lyman stated 
! that the cost for land damages, if 
the temporary tracks went to the 
east of the present road-bed, would 
be about $03,365.00.” 

The only figures then reported by 
me to the town were the assessed 
valuations of the property expected 
to be taken under each of the alter- 
native routes for the temporary 
tracks. Certainly I did not intend 
to suggest that those figures would 
be the cost for land damages and 
I feel sure that if any other mem- 
ber of the Selectmen or the Plan- 
ning .Board (or the Town Counsel 
for that matter) had thought that 
this distinction was not being clear- 
ly stated he would have corrected 
me at the meeting. 

It is a matter of common know- 
ledge that there is no telling what 
the cost of land damages is going 
to be in any particular case until 
an agreement has been reached or 
until a jury has made its award in 
a court proceeding. 

Assessed valuations were stated 
for the purpose of bringing all 
available information before the 
meeting, but I did not speculate 
upon what the eventual amount of 
damages might he. 

We have, in fact, a record of 
what the Selectmen told the town 
about the grade crossing project in 
1952 in the form of the Special Re- 
port of the Selectmen, written by 
me, signed by all members of that 
Board, printed on the Star’s press- 
es, and delivered to every home 
with the warrant for the 1952 
referendum which followed the 
town meeting in question. 

In that report (which is re- 
printed beginning at page 305 of 
the 1952 Town Reports) there ap- 
peared the following statement: 
“The only figures which are obtain- 
able at this time, and they do not 
hear any controlling relation to the 
extent of damages, are the assessed 
valuations of the property which 
would be taken under each of the 
alternative methods of temporarily 
relocating the tracks. The assessed 
value of the property which would 
be taken were the tracks to be 
temporarily relocated on the west 
side of the Center is $02,307. The 
assessed value of the property 
which would be taken were the 
tracks to be temporarily relocated 
entirely to the east of the present 
line, so that it would be necessary 
to demolish the buildings on the 
west side of Thompson street, would 
be $172,850.” 

That 1952 report went on to say: 
“Commissioner Callahan is expect- 
ed to announce bis decision shortly 
with regard to temporary reloca- 
tion of the tracks. It may then he 
possible for the Board of Select- 
men to arrive at a tentative agree- 
ment with the Commonwealth lim- 
iting to some definite figure the ex- 
tent of Winchester’s liability to re- 
imburse the State for damages. As 
was pointed out at the Town Meet- 
ing, it will then in any event he 
necessary for the Selectmen to 
present such a proposed agreement 
to another Town Meeting for ap- 
proval and appropriation of what- 
ever funds are needed.” 

I do not see how the entire mat- 
ter of cost to the town could have 
1 been more fairly stated or the 
danger of confusing “damages” 
with “assessed valuations” more 
carefully warned against.

Strangely enough again, no one 
raised this question at the two 
ecent town meetings held for the 


purpose of deciding our school con 

Being aware of the number of lnade no attempt to gloss over the struction program, yet through 


people who approve the modified unfortunate lmd effects which are 
Kellaway Plan, the former chair- part of any large public improve- 
man devotes approximately half a provement program. In the past 


olumn to disparaging remarks 
about this plan, stating that "the 
taking of property would include 
the whole or part of some 15 build- 
ings and about half of the front 
lawn of the Congregational 
Church.” 

No one knows better than the 
former chairman that these fea- 
tures were abandoned long ago and 
we are discussing the "modified 
plan.” The overpass would cover 
exactly the same location ns the 
underpass proposed by the propo- 
nents of the elevated, only ours 
would be an overpass in the exact 
same location over the tracks as 
they are to eliminate danger and 
delay. Neither plan would take any 
part of the Congregational Church 
lawn — that is merely a “red her- 
ring” scare statement. The chair- 
man further refers to our towns- 
man, “Commissioner Yolpe, who 
recommends the plan.” “It was not 
always thus.” Until initiated into 
our political society, our present 
Commissioner opposed the “over- 
head” plan.

OUR "LOYAL OPPOSITION' 


weeks, these facts have been so 
distorted by opponents to the plan 
that it seems that a deliberate at- 
tempt is being made to mislead the 
voters. 

A statement has been printed 
that temporary tracks will pass 
through the back yards of Spruce 
street residents. The fact is that 
the tracks used will be those now 
part of the freight sidings on the 
west of the right of way, and the 
trains will he farther from Spruce 
street than they are right now. 

It has been printed that Swan- 
ton street residents will look up 
at twelve to twenty foot walls ris- 
ing in front of their homes. The 
fact is that they will be above and 
look out over the walls, — the walls 
are those that will support the 
sides of an underpass and they will 
extend down, not up. 

No attempt to minimize the in- 
convenience, both temporary and 
permanent, to the residents of 
Swanton-Spruce street area has 
been or should be made. They will 
hoar the brunt of the damage to 
person and property, but there is 
no reason to believe that their loss 
will not be suitably compensated. 
Certainly a modern underpass will 
provide a cleaner, better looking, 
and safer area than that now pro- 
vided by th archaic, monstrous, and 
dirty structure that bridges the 
tracks. 

An attempt has been made to 
create the idea that this project 
will have an adverse affect on our 


conversation and the use of news 
papers it has been hinted and ru- 
mored that we could not build our 
school if we took care of the Grade 
Crossing. 

Every voter should go on record 
at the polls this Friday. It is now 
or never. Vote but do so only after 
being sure of the facts.

DID NOT SPEAK FOR HIM 


Editor of the Star: 

There have been a number of let- 
ters published opposing the elim- 
ination of the grade crossing to 
which signatures were attached 
implying that these writers spoke 
for all the residents in the Swan- 
ton street area. 

I am sure that this is untrue 
since I live in that area close to 
the tracks and not only am I in 
favor of eliminating the crossing 
but I know many others in this 
neighborhood who feci as I do. 

Anything done along the railroad 
will be an improvement over the 
present conditions. We should have 
faith in the various committees who 
have studied this problem and have 
recommended raising the tracks 
after getting the best possible en- 
gineering advice over the past ten 
years. 

We should support this plan by 
voting Yes on Friday.

NOT FIRST 

UNANIMOUS SCHOOL VOTE 


Your Star reporter was on bis 
way from last Thursday’s special 
town meeting, pleased two ways, 
first with the brevity of the meet- 
ing, and second, that something 
like an adequate high school had 
been voted, when a mighty tug at 
his coattails brought him up with 
a round turn. 

He discovered that his progess 
had been stopped by none other 
than “Jack” Wakefield who claimed 
Harold Farnsworth was wrong in 
claiming the unanimous vote on the 
remodelling of the junior high 
school as the first unanimous vote 
on a school building project since 
1922. 

“The vote on the George Wash- 
ington School addition proposal in 
March in 1951 was unanimous” 
said Mr. Wakefield, “and I think 
you should so state in your paper.” 

Well, the man is right! Investi- 
gation at the town clerk’s office dis- 
closed that the George Washington 
School addition vote was without 
dissent, though it was a voice vote 
and not polled. 

Whether or not the George 
Washington committee got a “vot- 
ing rise of thanks” we really do not 
remember!

the height of land is ideal for over- 
passing the* railroad, and Nature 
shows herself the Town’s best 
friend. It seems logical, and I be- 
lieve it is THE BETTER WAY. 

The Opposition at the several meet- 
ings of the Selectmen for discus- 
sion of the Elevation plun, and let- 
ters of protest to the Winchester 
Star, has maintained that no con- 
certed effort has been made except 
to push the Selectmen’s own favor- 
ite idea of beginning with zero at j 
the Medford line and raising the 
roadbed to a level of 19 feet at the 
Centre, with underpasses there and 
at Wcdgemere for vehicular traffic. 

This would be of solid, granite- 
faced construction. In many in 
stances no hardship would be caus- j 
ed, but this town of ours is unique 
in, that a structure such as this 
would literally cut the place in 
two. The prospect speaks for it- 
self! On the one hand a chance 
to preserve and better what we 
have by proper traffic routes and 
railing off the Boston and Main 1 
Railroad; and on the other hand ! 
a costly nightmare dividing East I 
from West, erected at tremendous I 
cost. Disorder and disruption for 
all, loss and calamity for diligent 
and deserving tradesmen; unspeak- 
able distress for sick and well for 
more than two years; and THEN, 
to continue indefinitely, the ever- 
increasing volume of cars and 
trucks cutting through the shop- 
ping center in competition with our 
own would-be shoppers. 

THE VOTING is to-duy; but at 
any cost before you do vote visit 
the Centre and compare the heights 
of Railroad Track level and run- 
ning Passenger and Freight Trains, 
with everything around:

Mr. Thompkins, introduced by

real welfare is much more than 
handing money to a needy family. 
Real welfare work should go much

GOING TO BE SNOW! 


Chief of Police Charles J. Har- 
rold watched a load of Thanksgiv- 
ing pumpkins going by yesterday, 
and through a process of logical 
deduction, lie saw in them a warn- 
ing to motorists. 

“When the frost is on the pump- 
kin,” the chief said, “it means that 
pretty soon there’s going to he 
snow.” 

November snowstorms, Chief 
Harrold said, can he more hazard- 
ous to motorists than January bliz- 
zards, for the reason that they 
come unexpectedly and find many 
motorists unprepared both mechan- 
ically and psychologically for the 
problems that snow driving brings. 

Right now is the time, Chief Har- 
rold emphasized for all wise 
motorists to observe the following 
safety rules: 

1. Don’t blame accidents on the 
weather; be prepared for had 
weather. 

2. When snow comes, get the 
“feel” of the road when starting 
out. 

3. Keep the windshield clear of 
fog and frost, and be sure head- 
lights, windshield wiper blades, and 
defrosters are working. 

4. On snow and ice, use tire 
chains. They cut stopping distance 
in half, and give 4 to 7 times great- 
er traction. 

5. When you have to stop, don’t 
jam on the brakes. “Pump” your 
brakes to avoid skids. 

6. Follow other cars at a safe 
distance. Give yourself room in 
which to stop. 

Asked if tire chains are neces- 
sary if a car has ‘winterized” tires, 
Chief Harrold said that the report 
of the National Safety Council’s 
Committee on Winter Driving 
Hazards has found that snow tires 
with special treads cannot approach 
tire chains for safety. 

Even less reliable, Chief Har- 
rold added, are so called “inertia 
or gyro type anti-skid devices.” 
These, he explained, are mysterious 
pipe-like gadgets which are being 
widely sold and installed under the 
rear frame or luggage trunk of 
automobiles, on the claim that they 
prevent winter skids. National 
Safety Council tests, the chief said, 
show these so-called “stabilizing” 
devices to he of no help whatever 
on snow or ice. He warned against 
being misled into trouble by a false 
sense of security. 


LEADING ROLE FOR CONNOR 


George E. Connor, 403 Main 
street, will play a featured role in 
the Tufts Community Players’ pro- 
duction of “See How They Run,” to 
be presented at the Tufts Arena 
Theatre Friday und Saturday eve- 
nings, December 4, 6, 11, und 12. 

In this rollicking English comedy 
set in a vicarage, Mr. Connor plays 
the part of a sedate bishop who 
finds himself innocently involved 
in a situation of mistaken identi- 
ties. This will he his third appear- 
ance with the Tufts Community 
Players following roles in “Ten 
Nights in a Barroom” and “Season 
in the Sun.” 

lie has appeared in numerous

BURNED IN FIRE AT HOME 


Mrs. Margaret Wyer was burned 
about the hands in a fire at the 
home of her daughter, Mrs. Henry 
J. Fernald, 11 Mt. Pleasant street, 
last Thursday afternoon. The fire 
originated in a closet and burned 
articles of clothing as well as gut- 
ting the closet and eating out into 
the room at one spot. 

Mrs. Wyer was attended by Dr. 
Richard W. Sheehy. 

While the local apparatus was at 
the Fernald fire the firefigthers 
were called to the Marchesi store 
at 32 Swanton street, where a fire 
was reported in the basement of 
the building. The men found upon 
arrival that the fire was in the rub- 
bish in the rear store and it was 
put out with slight damage. Appa- 
ratus from Woburn covered while 
the local department was at the 
Marchesi fire. 


NEW TELEPHONE DIRECTORY 
TO BE DELIVERED 


This year's edition of the Boston 
and vicinity telephone directory, 
delivery of which begins today, 
marks the 75 anniversary of Bos- 
ton’s first telephone directory, is- 
sued in the fall of 1878. 

The new directory, again bigger 
than ever with 1240 pages, contains 
around 587,200 listings. Its for- 
bear of three quarters of a century 
ago had fewer than 70 listings, all 
on a single sheet. 

The Telephone Compuny estim- 
ates it will take until nearly the 
end of the month to complete deliv- 
ery of some 750,000 copies of the 
new book throughout the Greater 
Boston area. Delivery of the yel- 
low-paged classified telephone dir- 
ectory will begin in early Decem- 
ber.

TOWN MEETING VOTE 
SCHOOL FUND 

(Continued from Page 1) 

It is hoped thnt the classrooms 
at the revamped junior high school 
will be ready for occupancy by se- 
nior high pupils next September 
and that the entire work nt the 
building will be completed by the 
Christmas vacation next year. 

Mr. Speers admitted thnt the new 
high school may not he large en- 
ough for long, although his com- 
mittee’s best judgment based on 
available figures, is thnt there will 
soon be a leveling off in school 
population. How long the new 
building will be adequate is any 
one’s guess, but in the committee’s 
judgment it will not be feasible to 
add to the building again. 

As a consequence, if and when 
the building becomes overcrowded 
the solution, in the Committee’s 
opinion, would seem to be to put 
the town on the educator-favored 
6-3-3 plan, having the high school 
house three grades, and the junior 
high school, three grades. In the 
event of this operating plan, it 
would he necessary to construct a 
new junior high school for use with 
the junior high to he remodelled 
from the present senior high build- 
ing. With these two junior high 
buildings and a three year senior 
high school the Building Commit- 
tee believes the schools can func- 
tion adequately until the town’s 
population reaches 21,000. 

Mr. Speers explained that of the 
$1,886,250.00 appropriated for the 
junior high school job, $1,700,000 
will be by bond issue, $1,000,000 
within the debt limit of the town, 
and $700,000 outside the debt limit. 
Added to this sum is $20,743.20 
from the Sale of Town Property 
Fund, and two transfers from the 
Excess and Deficiency Fund, $15,- 
512.80 as down-payment on the 
bond issue and $60,000 for remodel- 
ling, this breakdown being neces- 
sary to comply with State-aid fin- 
ancing. 

Mr. Redding followed Mr. Speers, 
giving the plan the Finance Com- 
mittee's blessing, and Mrs. Wood- 
ward added the endorsement of the 
School Committee, praising the 
Building Committee highly for its 
cooperation and fine job done. Mr. 
Greer expressed the Selectmen’s 
approval nnd Mr. Lane, that of the 
Planning Board. 

For a breathless moment the hall 
was absolutely quiet as Mr. Wads- 
worth asked for any additional 
speakers. None arising, the vote 
was taken and announced as 147 
affirmative and none in opposition. 

Mr. Harold Farnsworth then 
arose and said that inasmuch as 
this marked the first time a school 
vote had gone through unanimous- 
ly since 1922 he felt a rising vote 
of thanks was due the Building 
Committee and Mr. Speers. The 
meeting concurred and dissolved at 
8:47 p. m.

MYSTIC GLEE CLUB 


14th 


TO PRESENT . 
ANNUAL WINTER CONCERT 


MYSTIC SCHOOL TEACHERS' 
LUNCHEON 


“You girls are doing a good job,” 
volunteered John I. Donovan, “keep 
it up.” Then he handed an un- 
solicited contribution to Mrs. Wil- 
liam Davies, President of the 
League of Women Voters of Win- 
chester. 

News of this spontaneous token 
of approval was an inspiration to 
solicitors, meeting Tuesday morn- 
ing, at the home of the Finance 
Chairman, Mrs. William E. Spauld- 
ing, to launch a one-week finance 
drive. 

Mrs. Rodney Long, Finance 
Chairman of the State League, 
provided momentum by staging a 
live interview with Sherman Rus- 
sell. 

Mr. Russells’ penetrating ques- 
tions served better than a lecture 
course to bring out the facts needed 
by the solicitors. They pointed 
up ways of explaining the League’s 
continued efforts to “promote in- 
formed and active participations of 
citizens in government” in the 
years between national elections, 
while maintaining a striek policy of 
non-partizanship as an organiz- 
ation. 

Mrs. Long’s replies were fully 
factual, but invited further ques- 
tions if more details were desired. 
In explaining how dues are kept 
low so that anyone can enjoy mem- 
bership, she also brought out that 
about ten hours of volunteer work 
are spent for every dollar from the 
budget. 

Members of the Finance Commit- 
tee are: 

Mrs. Theodore Atkinson 
Mra. Henry A. Dellickcr 
Mrs. Robert A. Drake 
Miss Natalie Jewett 
Mm. Rowland V. Patrick 
Mrs. Philip Woodward 

Additional solicitors include: 

Mrs. Howard Aiken 
Mm. Robert Bryant 
Mm. Isaiah Bullard 
Mrs. Roger Burton 
Mrs. Frank Ilnwkina 
Mrs. Thomas Hennessey 
Mrs. Edgar Hinton 
Mrs. Olcott I.. Hooper 
Mrs. Philip H. Johnson 
Mrs. Richard Johnson 
Mrs. Leonard Mead 
Mra. Larry H. Pexton 
Mrs. Oscar W. Surtees 
Mra. Walter W. Winship 

Public-spirited citizens are being 
asked to consider a contribution tc 
the League of Women Voters as an 
investment in democracy, with 
dividends in the form of more 
responsive and responsible govern- 
ment. 

Mrs. William Spaulding, 379 
Main street, is receiving non-mem- 
ber contributions. Contributions 
from members are handled by the 
Treasurer, Mrs. A. Allen Kimball. 


WINCHESTER 
TOASTMISTRESS CLUB 


The next meeting of the Winches- 
ter Toastmistress Club will be held 
at the home of Miss Orrie Grant of

1953. 

The main speaker of the evening 
will be Mrs. Beulah Thompson of 
Medford, whose topic will be 
“Humor in Conversation,” and 
Eileen Gallo of Winchester, will 
speak on “Informal Conversation.” 

The Toastmistress of the eve 
ning will be Miss Edna Brownell of 
Belmont. 

Topic Mistress will be Miss Orrie 
Grant of Winchester. 

The Evaluators will be Miss Mae 
McDonough, and Miss Hilda Hope 
of Winchester.

The Mystic Glee Club, under the J 
leadership of Allen Lannom, will ■ 
present its 14th Annual Winter 
Concert in the Winchester High j 
School auditorium on Saturday , 
evening, December 12. 

The program, which has boon j 
carefully selected to appeal to var* 1 
ied musical tastes, features a clos- 
ing group of beautiful and well- 
loved Christmas carols. 

One of the highlights will be the 
introduction of the newly-formed ; 
Mystic Glee Club Octette. Two i

Mystic Four, Tom Worthen and 
Bill Hopkins, are singing with this 
group which also includes George 
Slotlmtr and Ken Wright, first ten- 
ors, Jack Gilbert, second tenor, 
Fred Rozelle, baritone, and Lon 
Lord and Dick Jackson, basses.

signed by A cl in Bailey. Construc- 
tion was under the direction of ; 
Tom Joho^ton, who bad able as- j 
sistance from Charlie Buchanan 
and Carroll Knowlton. 

The club, having won the Grand 
Award at the annual contest of the i 
New England Federation of Men’s 
Glee Clubs last May, is determined ; 
to make its first appearance of, 
the 1953-54 season an outstanding i 
musical evening. John Lyman, 
sponsoring membership chairman, 
reports that season ticket sales are 
satisfactory but indicates that there 
will be seats available for this 
concert. 


The Mystic School Teachers’ 
Luncheon was held on November 
10, at the home of Mrs. George L. 
Connor, 31 Prospect street. 

Joining the fifteen teachers pres- 
ent were Miss French, supervisor, 
Mr. Joseph Forte, principal, Mrs. 
Maud Dover, secretary, Mrs. Hollis 
Dyer, substitute, Mrs. Earle Little- 
ton, president of the Mystic School 
Mothers’ Association, and Mrs. W. 
James Masterton, chairman of 
teachers’ luncheons. 

The luncheon was served by the 
committee, consisting of Mrs. 
Ralph Atkinson, Mrs. Leo Beranek, 
Mrs. Ernest Ulm, and Mrs. Abe 
Zimmerman. 


OFF FOR NEW HAVEN 


Pete Provinzano, physiothera- 
pist for Dr. Timothy Lamphier, 
Red Sox physician, will assist Jack 
Fadden, head trainer for the Red 
Sox and Harvard, and trainers Hal 
Knowlton and Ed Noonan at the 
Harvard- Yale game at New Haven 
Saturday. 

He loaves on the “Harvard Spe- 
cial’’ from the South Station Fri- 
day afternoon. 

Pete operates the physiotherapy 
department at 478 Commonwealth 
avenue in Boston, after being as- 
sistant trainer at Harvard during 
the 1951 and 1952 football seasons. 


Survivors of the Worcester 
County tornado disaster may re- 
ceive an estimated total of $120,000 
in social security insurance pay- 
ments. according to a statement 
made today by the Social Security 
office. 

This total of eventual benefits 
will he in the form of monthly in- 
surance payments to entitled sur- 
vivors of family breadwinners, and 
lump sum death payments to 
families or adminstrators who paid 
burial expenses. 

Of the 87 victims of the tornado, 
nearly one-half, 38, were in- 
sured under the old-age and sur- 
vivors insurance provisions of the 
social security law. Many of those 
killed were women and children, as 
the twister struck hardest in resi- 
dential sections just before most 
wage earners bad returned home at 
the end of the work day. Social 
security insurance benefits are pay- 
able only to entitled survivors of 
insured workers. 

There arc six widows, one aged 
dependent parent, and ten children 
now getting monthly survivors in- 
surance* payments based on the so- 
cial security wage records of work- 
ers killed in the disaster. Three of 
the widows are not yet 65 but were 
entitled to immediate benefit pay- 
ments because they have minoT 
children of the deceased worker in 
their care. These widows will con- 
tinue to get monthly payments un- 


til the youngest child in the family 
reaches 18, or marries before that 
«ge. 

Three widows of the tornado 
victims who are now 65 or over are 
getting monthly payments totaling 
$125.50 per month. Another widow, 
aged 70, is getting $40.20 monthly, 
i About $6,800 in lumpsum death 
i payments will have been paid when 
all applications for such payments 
have been bled by the families or 
administrators of the insured tor- 
nado victims. 

The same protection illustrated in 
this community when the disaster 


struck among heads of families is 
now covering over four out of five 
of the mothers and children in the 
country in case the family bread- 
winner should die under any cir- 
cumstances. 


James F. Mawn, Jr., son of Mr. 
and Mrs. James F. Mawn of 51

John Ely Burchnrd, dean of hu- 
manities and social studies at the 
Massachusetts Institute of Tech- 
nology, was the speaker for the 
third Winchester Morning on 
Thursday, November 12th, at the 
Music Hall. 

Discussing liberal education, he 
said there are four major problems 
facing American education today. 
First he urged that more attention 
he given to the gifted child. Far 
too often, under our present sys- 
tem, the talented child is in danger 
of succumbing to boredom. Our ed- 
ucational system should make pro- 
visions for his fullest development. 
Next, he discussed mass education, 
and the tremendous problem of 
providing adequately for the vari- 
ous aims of the increasing number 
of students enrolled in our colleges, 
lie mentioned the difficulty of se- 
curing qualified teachers, especially 
in such subjects as English and 
History. The third point stressed 
by Mr. Burchard was the overem- 
phasis on the desire for security 
which is characteristic of present 
day American society. He cited the 
tendency to consider certain pro- 
fessions, such as science and en- 
gineering, as useful, while others, 
for example, literature and art, are 
useless. This selective choice of 
useful people, he believes, presents 
a threat to democracy. Finally, he 
I spoke of the specialists themselves, 
and what we should ask of them 
beyond their specialties. He warned 
, of the danger of looking to scien- 
1 tists for solutions of problems out- 
side their field. 

Mr. Burchnrd’s lucid analysis of 
these educational problems, high- 
lighted by apt references to litera- 
ture and the arts, history ami phi- 
losophy, as well as by delightful 
anecdotes from his own experience, 
provided his audience with a most 
stimulating and thought-provoking 
lecture. 

This was the final program of 
the sixth annual series of Winches- 
ter Mornings, sponsored by the 
Winchester Wellesley Club for the 
benefit of the Wellesley College 
Development Fund and the Win- 
chester Scholarship Foundation. 
Mrs. Peter Laban was chairman of 
the Mornings. She was assisted by 
Mrs. Richard Jordan, ticket chair- 
man, Mrs. Arthur Rogde, social 
chairman, Mrs. Albert Swazey, 
arrangement, and also Mrs. Wayne 
Davis, Miss Loretta Carleton, Mrs. 
Lindsey Caldwell and Mr? Thomas 
Halloran. 

Mrs. Samuel Kirkwood was re- 
sponsible for the lovely flower ar- 
rangements for the Mornings. 



Artist Arthur R. Herrick of Arlington displays his wutcrcolors 
which will be reproduced on place mats to be sold by the State Federa- 
tion of Women’s Clubs to restore trees destroyed by the tornado in the 
Worcester disaster area. The Fortnightly is represented in the drive by

grade mothers and teachers on 
Tuesday, November 17th. 

The informal gathering at the 
tea table, where Mrs. George M. 
Neville and Mrs. John F. Coakley 
poured, was followed by a discus- 
sion of the subjects covered in fifth 
grade work. 

Miss Leonor Rich greeted the 
mothers and asked that they feel 
free to have any phase of the curri- 
culum clarified. Mr. Nault and 
Mrs. Thompson, the teachers, then 
explained Language and Social 
Studies, with special emphasis 
placed on the integration of all 
materials presented to the students.

Department Vice Commander EL 
linwood spoke at some length on 
the Rehabilitation Stamp Program 
which will he launched for the third 
year early in December. Sheets of 
these stamps will be sent to every 
Legionnaire in the Commonwealth 
seeking a donation to the fund, hut 
if not able to donate, the stamps 
are to he used by the recipient as 
advertising for the Program. 

Department Vice Commander 
Collatos told of the accomplish- 
ments of the Americanism Pro- 
gram and paid great compliment 
to his committee especially t > that 
fine Legionnaire from Lowell Post 
No. 87, Thomas F. Duffy, when he 
said in part, “Much of the success 
of the committee was accomplished 
through the untiring efforts and 
diligence of Thomas F. Duffy of 
Lowell Post.” 

Commander Fred Sharkey of Bel- 
mont Post No. 165 presented a mo- 
tion which was seconded by Past 
Department Commander John H. 
Walsh, that the Reverend Doctor 
John P. Fitzsimmons, Minister of 
the Plymouth Congregational 
Church in Belmont, he nominated 
for the office of Department Chap- 
lain. This motion was passed and 
will be advanced to the Department 
Executive Committee and thence to 
the Department Convention next 
year. Endorsement is generally 
tantamount to election. Dr. Fitz- 
simmons is presently serving as 
Chaplain of Middlesex County 
Council. 

Governor’s Councillor Williams 
told interestingly of the closing of 
Cushing Hospital in Framingham. 
He laid emphasis on the typo and 
quality of the buildings, the beauty 
of the location and it’s easy acces- 
sibility. He stated that no Depart- 
ment of the Federal Government 
apparently has a use for it. 

Williams further called the at- : 
tention of the Council to the fact j 
that the only Soldiers’ Home in 
New England, — that is the only 
home for the aged or indigent vet- 
erans maintained by the Federal 
Government, is the home at Togus, j 
Maine. He firmly believes that 
with the closing of Cushing Hos- ] 
pital the time is ripe for the Fed- 
eral Government to convert it into 
another Soldiers’ Home. He point- 
ed out that wars are produced by 
Government and therefore it is the 
responsibility of Government to 
provide proper facilities for the 
aged and indigent veterans of those 
wars. 

He made a motion that the Coun- 
cil call upon the Federal Govern- 
ment to create such a Home at 
Cushing Hospital. The motion was 
seconded by Past Commander 
Joseph Dineen and passed. This 
motion will travel through the 
proper Legion channels and finally 
reach the Congress. 

Following the meeting a fine col- 
lation was served by the host Post 
and Legionnaires leaving for home 
felt that a lot of fine work was ac- 
complished at this meeting. The

HARRIERS CONCLUDE SEASON 
WITH DIVISIONAL 
AND LEAGUE RACES 

The local cross-country runners 
concluded their regular season with 
the Pilgrim Divisional title race at 
Essex Agricultural School in Dan- 
vers and the MCCL Championship 
at Tufts College. 

At Danvers the long-expected 
duel between Lou Farrell and Peter 
Schwarz took place. The race was 
run in a driving rainstorm but it 
did not seem to hamper the leaders 
a bit. Schwarz jumped away to an 
early lead, with Lou and Dave ('ha- 
pin on his heels. This order pre- 
vailed until about Vi mile from the 
finish, when Lou Farrell pulled into 
a five-yard lead. As they entered 
the track with about 300 yards to 
go Lou increased the lead to 8 
yards and seemingly had victory in 
his grasp, hut 20 yards from the i 
finish Schwarz made a final bid , 
t hat caused Lou to break his stride, | 
which gave the victory to the! 
Wakefield runner by 4 yards in the 
record-breaking time of 13:58:6. 
Lou pulled into second a scant yard 
over the fast-closing Dave Chapin. 

('apt. John Becker moved up in 
the closing stages to take 6th. The 
team scoring was completed by 
Dick Borggaard in 20th, Bob Beck- 
er in 22nd, and Hank Morgan in 
30th. The team total placed Win- j 
Chester in 3rd place behind Wake- 
field and Wellesley. 

In the Junior Varsity race Boh 
Smith, fast-improving sophomore, 
took an early lead which he held 
until midway in the race when he 
took a wrong turn which added 
about 100 yards. This error cost 
him a victory, as he finished third 
about 75 yards behind Rizza of 
Wakefield, the winner. Paul Fran- 
son, a sophomore, also finished a 
strong 7th. Jon McCarthy in 9th, 
Bert Kneeland 12th, and Freshman 
Bob Dauphnais, 20th, completed 
the scoring to give Winchester the 
runner-up spot behind Wakefield. 


STAFF AND KEY 


On Thursday, November twelfth, 
the Winchester Staff and Key So- 
ciety held a meeting at the home of 
Mr. Francis J. Mardulicr to make 
plans for their next musical. 

During the meeting a music com- 
mittee was appointed by the presid- 
ing officer, Miss Virginia McPart- 
land, to select the musical show to 
be produced. The music committee 
will be presided over by Dr. F. 
Milne Blanchard, Chairman, who is 
well known for his excellent per- 
formances with The Parish Players 
as well as The Staff and Key. Dr. 
Blanchard will be assisted by Mrs. 
Lucy Cushman, Winchester piano 
teacher and accompanist for the so- 
ciety and Mr. Hasslar Einzig, Head 
of the Music Department in the 
Arlington public schools and the 
director for the past performances 
of Staff and Key. Mr. Einzig has 
also directed several Gilbert and 
Sullivan operettas for Wheelock 
College and is at present directing 
“Iolanthe” for the Peabody Play 
House Operetta Company. 

It was also decided that Staff and 
Key will again assemble this holi- 
day season to sing Christmas 
Carols at the Winchester Hospital, 
the Winchester Home for the Aged 
and to any known “shut-ins”. The 
Society will he happy to receive the 
names of any “shut-ins” who would 
enjoy having the group sing out- 
side their homes. The tentative 
date for this event has been set for 
December twenty-first. If, as hap- 
pened last year, the weather should 
he too inclement, the carolers will 
gather on December twenty-second 
instead. After the carols the mem- 
bers will gather together for a 
Christmas party at 37 Woodside 
road. 

After the business meeting re- 
freshments were served and the 
new members were given an oppor- 
tunity to become better acquainted 
with the organization and its mem- 
bers. 


LOU FARRELL CAPTURES 
STATE HARRIER TITLE 

Lou Farrell, local Red nnd Black 
runner, raced to the State Class D 
championship on November 11. 

This race, postponed from the 
previous Saturday because of the 
storm, proved to he the most hotly 
contested of the four classes. At 
the outset of the race Don Luisi of 
Rockland, Dave Chapin of Welles- 
ley and Lou Farrell jumped into 
the lead. They soon put a rather 
wide margin between themselves 
and the other runners and it be- 
came evident that the race was go- 
ing to he close. At the mile and one 
half the three were running shoul- ; 
der to shoulder and this condition 
continued until they entered the 
final 6)0 yards. At this point Luisi 
took a five yard lead, with Lou and j 
Chapin evenly positioned behind. ■ 
The pace then steped up and ('ha- 
pin faltered, leaving the race to the 1 
other two. Lou began to put on the 
pressure nnd moved up stride for 
stride with the leader. The next 
300 yards found less than a yard 
separating the pair. With less than 
150 yards to go Lou made his bid 
and poured it on. Luisi matched 
him for 50 yards and then faded 
ns the Red and Black speedster 
finished with a 10-yard lead in the 
second fastest time of the day, 
13:26:2. 

This victory was a fitting climax 
to two years of brilliant running 
for Lou, which includes 13 dual- 
meet wins in 14 races, a Pilgrim 
Divisional individual crown, and a 
record holder on three of the cross- 
country courses in the MCCL as 
well as the record holder on the 
local course. As Lou is only a jun- 
ior perhaps even greater laurels 
may be waiting next year. 

Lou’s victory also qualified him 
for the New England Cross Coun- 
try Championships which was run 
last Saturday, lie is the first local 
runner to be selected for this hon- 
or. He was competing against the 
top runners from all over New 
England. Over 180 runners left the 
mark in this race and Lou finished 
18th in what proved to be the fast- 
est races of the season. 

Other local Harriers also finished 
well in the state meet, with Capt. 
John Becker running a fine race to 
capture the 6th spot and rapidly- 
improving sophomore Bob Becker 
finishing strongly to capture 11th. 
Dick Borggaard was 29th and an- 
other sophomore, Bob Smith, with 
definite future potential, took 32nd 
to complete Winchester’s scoring. 
The team total gave Winchester 
3rd place behind Rockland and Wo- 
burn in the 17-school race. 


W. S. C. S. 


At the regular meeting of the 
women of the Crawford Memorial 
Methodist Church on November 12, 
final plans were discussed for the 
coming Christmas Fair, Friday, De- 
cember 4th. Articles for sale are 
nearly completed and the luncheon 
and dinner committees are at work. 

A large group listened with in- 
terest, when Mrs. Alonzo D. Nichol- 
as gave a fascinating report of her 
visit to nine European countries, 
displaying pictures and samples of 
native craft, including laces, pot- 
tery, glass, china and leather work. 

Dessert was served by the Hill- 
side Group, Mrs. Arthur C. Fay, 
chairman. Mrs. Donald R. Wilkins 
led the devotions. The society 
voted to contribute to the red 
feather campaign and members 
brought generous donations for the 
work of the Cooper Community 
Center in Roxbury. 


FARRELL THIRD AT TUFTS 

The last regularly scheduled 
meet of the year was the MCCL 
Championships held at Tufts Col- 
lege. 

This race brought together 14 
teams and at least 10 top individual 
runners. 

In the Varsity race 95 runners 
faced the starting gun. The first 
half mile saw Bob Dias of Melrose 
take the lead, with Burns of Bever- 
ly second and Lou Farrell, third. 
These positions were maintained 
throughout the race, with Dias win- 
ning in the excellent time of 13:03. 
Lou made a bid to take second from 
Burns but fell one stride short. 
John Becker, local team captain, 
running his best race of the season 
finished a strong sixth. The team 
scoring found Bob Becker in 21st, 
Borggaard, 50th, and Morgan, 56th, 
to give Winchester a point total of 
136. This total place the Red and 
Black in 6th place, with Wakefield 
taking the League title by one point 
over Melrose. 

The Junior Varsity race found 
the local team in the second spot, 
with Melrose the victor. The team 
scores for Winchester were Char- 
lie Govostes, 10th, Boh Smith, 13th, 
Raul Franson, 15th, Bert Kneeland, 
27th, and Don Palladino, 44th. 


JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP 

The second bi-monthly meeting 
of November held at the Unitarian 
Church on Sunday the 15th was 
highlighted by the presence of Mrs. 
Kenneth Toye, regional director of 
the Military Manpower Commis- 
sion, who talked to an attentive 
group of hoys and girls about a 
number of aspects related to choos- 
ing a military life as a vocation. 
She answered many questions pre 
sen ted by the group with patience 
and directness, among other things 
emphasizing the seriousness need 
for high scholarship and a com 
plete secondary school education as 
a prerequisite to a successful mili- 
tary life. 

A group of junior hi-ers from the 
Unitarian Church in Concord were 
guests at the meeting, which ended 
with games and refreshments.

CUSACK BADLY INJURED 


STAR Rt’ARn BREAKS I.EG IN 
W AKKKlKl.il GAME 

Jim Cusack, son of Selectman 
and Mrs. William C. Cusack of 
Lakeview road, who sustained a 
badly broken right leg in the Win- 
choster-Wakefield football game 
last Saturday afternoon at Wake- 
field, was reported the first of the 
week at the Winchester Hospital 
ns getting along nicely. 

Jim, outstanding lineman of this 
year's team and a two-year veteran 
of the line wars, was injured 
toward the end of the second period 
when a Wakefield hoy threw a ter- 
rific block on his right leg as 
Cusack wns running laterally in an 
attempt to tackle the Wakefield hall 
carrier. Witnesses, who know foot- 
ball and saw the block, felt it was 
legitimate and not a clip, Jim’s 
weight being on his right leg and 
thus preventing his cleats from 
giving when the block was thrown. 

It could immediately he seen that 
Cusack was Imdly hurt, and after 
examination by Team Physician 
William D. Barone lie was placed 
on a stretcher by the Wakefield Po- 
lice and taken to the Winchester 
Hospital in the Wakefield ambu- 
lance, which is stationed at the 
Wakefield field each Saturday there 
is a football game there. 

Mr. Cusack accompanied his son 
to the hospital and Mrs. Cusack, 
who was also at the game, her first 
after her recent operation, was 
driven to the hospital by Mrs. 
Philip Woodward, chairman of the 
School Committee. 

Meanwhile Dr. Barone had tele- 
phoned ahead nnd when the in- 
jured hoy arrived at the hospital 
Dr. H. K. Magill, an orthopedic 
physician and Dr. Wiliam F. Hic- 
key, Jr., surgeon, were ready to 
work upon him immediately. It 
was found that Jim had a compound 
fracture of both the tibia and fibula 
bones of the right leg above the 
ankle. 

Unless unforeseen complications 
arise the physicians believe that 
there will he no permanent ill 
effects of the injury, which threw a 
pall over the big crowd, both on the 
Wakefield and Winchester sides of 
the field. 

At the hospital Jim’s principal 
concern was the progress of the 
game, and when he finally learned 
that Winchester had won beyond 
doubt the star guard was happy 
despite his discomfort. His chief 
worry now is missing the Woburn 
game and his natural disappoint- 
ment is shared by all Winchester 
fans who have appreciated Jim’s 
sterling play in the center of the 
Indians' line.

We would like to make a few 
comments, about a team whose 
name alone is known throughout 
the world. A name who deserves a 
better standing than it hns, Har- 
vard. Some of the reasons of the 
dull effort can he traced to the fol- 
lowing conditions. Their key man 
(Sammy) has the worry of paying 
for his new car. “Wedding Bells 
Boh” need I say more. “M. J. S.” 
a good bowler thnt I can’t figure 
why he’s not doing better. Paul 
whose wonderful effort nnd co- 
operation in the howling records 
deserves a better place in the 
standings. M. D. S. this man 1 as 
a lot on his mind and also he can’t 
bend at the knees so we suggest a 
little dieting would help. Last hut 
not least “The President”, “Treas- 
urer”, “Recording Secretary”, “The 
Driver”, and delivery man of the 
“Star Lumber Co.”, “Sir Leroy 
Penta” who finally hit a 300 score. 

Whispering heard around the 
alleys. “What happened to last 
year’s Champ? Does the feud be- 
tween “Curly Locks Chick” and 
“Prayer Mingy” continuing this 
year? Will Ben ever miss hitting 
the rubber? Has the boss any old 
clothes? Will the Gypsy ever 
stop asking for quarters? 

We wish to thank publicly Mike 
for the keg of Ginger Ale. 

The winner of this week’s “Cres- 
cent Star” raffle was won by a man 
well regarded in all walks of life. 
Some of his past and present posi- 
tions are as follows. S. O. I. ven- 
erable, many times at present he 
is president of the A. C. A. or- 
ganization, commissioner of howl- 
ing, assistant chairman of the 
building committee, superintendent 
of refuge and sanitation, delegate 
to the S. O. I Grand Lodge all over 
the country and many other posi- 
tions too numerous to mention. He 
is at present behind one of the most 
powerful machines in this town. 
You may already have guessed 
“His Honor Sir Carmen Frongillo”. 

See you next week.

TOWN MEETING SUPPORTED 
SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE 


(Continued from Pagj 1) 


Mr. Greer stated in this connec- 
tion that the entire cost of land 
takings for the school would be 
$42,000, adding a few dollars for 
odds and ends. 

The meeting voted $48 from the 
Excess and Deficiency Account to 
reimburse L. P. Yale for medical 
expenses resulting from an injury 
to his daughter at the Wadleigh 
school May 9, 1962. It was ex- 
plained at the March meeting that 
Mr. Yale’s daughter had broken 
through a floor ventilator at the 
school, and that until an enabling 
act of Legislature was passed the 
town could not appropriate money 
to reimburse him for medical ex- 
penses incurred. 

Mr. Crockett reported at some 
length for the Personnel Board 
which is still engaged in setting up 
an adequate wage schedule for the 
town. Using grafs, he explained 
the wage differential and told how 
his committee had arrived at the 
wage schedule they recommended. 

He told of the difficulty encount- 
ered by the committee, of the time 
its members have spent in confer- 
ence with town department heads 
and the town accountant and of 
their good fortune in acquiring the 
services of an expert in the field of 
job evaluation whose assistance has 
proven invaluable. 

Mr. Crockett stressed the fact 
that in arriving at its wage sched- 
ule the committee had considered 
jobs and not individuals, and that 
its plan is an attempt at positive 
job evaluation by an expert so as 
to establish an adequate wage 
scale. 

He made clear that his remarks 
at the meeting were an interim re- 
port, and expressed the hope that 
before the Personnel Committeee 
concludes its study of the problem 
a wage scale will have been worked 
out of which the town can be proud. 

Mr. Crockett stated in reply to a 
question that the wage scale of 
which he spoke at Monday’s meet- 
ing did not include any cost of liv- 
ing money, but did explain how such 
a cost of living increase could be 
applied to two random wage units 
taken for demonstration. He also 
recommended that the town have 
a permanent Personnel Board to 
correlate and keep up to date wage 
and hour schedules for public em- 
ployees. 

Two motions introduced by the 
Personnel Committee were passed 
by the meeting, without opposition, 
both the Selectmen and Finance 
Committee voicing approval. 

The first was that the Wage and 
Salary Guide as published by the 
Finance Committee in 1950, and as 
later amended, be further amended 
by making the changes and addi- 
tions herein stated: 


Article 6 was inserted in the war- 
rant to see if the town would appro- 
priate money from the Excess and 
Deficiency Account to install a new 
water system at Palmer Play- 
ground to improved the playing 
condition of the tennis court there. 
The sum of $2,000 was originally 
asked for this article, hut upon the 
motion of the Finance Committee 
action upon it was indefinitely post- 
poned. Mr. Redding told the meet- 
ing the funds would not be neces- 
sary to effect the needed water im- 
provement at the tennis courts 
since the Water Department had 
agreed to furnish the necessary 
pipe for the installation with the 
Park Department supplying the 
labor. 

The meeting voted to authorize 
the Water and Sewer Board to 
transfer $4,000 from the personal 
services in the Water Department 
construction account to personal 
services in the Water Department 
maintenance account, and also the 
transfer of $2,500 from the personal 
services in the Sewer Department 
construction account to personal 
services in the Sewer Department 
maintenance account. 

Mr. Dwinell explained in this con- 
nection that the Board in estimat- 
ing the amounts needed for per- 
sonal services at the beginning of 
the year had overestimated the 
amount necessary for construction 
in both the Water and Sewer De- 
partments and underestimated the 
amount necessary for maintenance. 

Mr. Greer explained the request 
of the Selectmen for authority to 
add a new police officer to the de- 
partment, explaining that the great 
increase in motor traffic makes one 
or two new officers necessary for 
traffic law enforcement. 

The new officer asked for would 
he the beginning of a local traffic 
department and will devote his en- 
tire time to traffic enforcement, the 
Board considering also the appoint- 
ment of a new sergeant to devote a 
part of his time solely to traffic. 

The sum of $3,068 to be taken 
from the long suffering Excess and 
Deficiency Account was asked for 
the expense of the new officer, and 
after the Finance Committee flash- 
ed the green light, the sum was 
voted. 

Under Article 9 the sum of $215 
was asked to be transferred from 
Excess and Deficiency to make it 
possible for the clerk now working 
part time in the Accountant’s de- 
partment to become a full time 
clerk at a salary of $2,000. Mr. 
Greer and Mr. Redding argued the 
necessity for the full time clerk to 
relieve the accountant of routine 
work so that he can devote more 
time to the analytical work needed 
to assist department heads and 
committees such as the Personnel 
Committee. 

The meeting voted the money and 
also voted to accept the provisions 
of the General Laws permitting 
town officers and employees to be 


paid for their vacation before they 
lenve to enjoy it. 

The supposedly controversial ar- 
ticle dealing with more stringent 
regulation of the removal of soil 
from private property was referred 
to a committee of three to be ap- 
pointed by the moderator to study 
the proposed new law and make 
recommendations at a subsequent 
town meeting. 

The article dealing with rent con- 
trol was indefinitely postponed upon 
the recommendation of the Select- 
men, Mr. Greer feeling that from 
the Board’s experience there is lit- 
tle call for rent control in Win- 
chester at present. The Selectmen 
do feel, however, if the action on 
control is indefinitely postponed, it 
can he brought up for action at any 
time should there he evidence of 
abuse on the part of landlords. 

Mr. Hewis made the actual mo- 
tion for postponement, and after 
it had been carried the meeting was 
dissolved at 10:55 p. m. 


CARL PIHL COMMISSIONED 


Carl Pihl received last Friday 
the comission of Ensign of the 
Line at Newport Naval Station, 
Newport, R. I. He has been ordered 
to report in New York City, where 
he will he stationed for the next 
18 months. 

Carl graduated from the Holder- 
ness School, Plymouth, N. H.,

hockey and baseball. After a post- 
graduate year at the Browne & 
Nichols School in Cambridge, he 
spent two years at Kenyon College, 
Gambier, Ohio, where he again re- 
ceived varsity sports letters. 

Transferring to the University 
of Vermont as a pre-medical stu- 
dent, Carl’s interest in skiing was 
intensified and he again distin- 
guished himself there as a skier. 

He received his B. A. degree 
from the University of Vermont 
last June and entered the Officers’ 
Candidate School at Newport, R.I., 
last July. He was in the 13th class 
to be graduated from the school, 
and on Friday, November the 13th!

M. S. P. C. A. 


A very well attended meeting 
was held Thursday, November 12th, 
at the home of Miss Mary A. Fitch, 
14 Sheffield West. 

After the business meeting we 
were addressed by Mr. John C. 
Macfarlane who is the director of 
New England Livestock Conserva- 
tion Inc., the office being at 180 
Longwood avenue, Boston, the 
M. S. P. C. A. building. 

He told us about the great need 
for improved equipment and better 
handling methods for livestock in 
our region, and said that consider- 
able advance has been made in the 
Brighton stock yards. 

“When livestock bruises, every- 
body loses”, is his slogan. 

Many old cows are taken to the 
market in trucks with sharp nails 
sticking out, as the trucks swerve 
the unfortunate animals are bruised 
by the nails even through their 
hides. After a long life giving 
calves and milk for people they are 
sold to make frankforts as the meat 
is too inferior for other use. 

Ignorance and thoughtlessness 
are responsible for most of the suf- 
fering of our food animals. They 
are kicked and beaten and prodded 
by rods which give electric shocks, 
as they are being loaded and un- 
loaded and hurried beyond reason. 

Money is constantly needed to 
carry on the human education so 
urgently needed in our rural areas. 

Much better methods of transpor- 
tation have been devised, so that 
the loss by bruises will not he so 
great. The result of bruised ani- 
mals, cows, calves, pigs and lambs, 
is poorer quality meat and less 
money for the one who has raised 
them. 

It is important to teach the far- 
mers particularly boys in 4H clubs, 
and other groups, the better 
methods. 

A very delicious tea was served 
by our cordial hostess.

PRICE TEN CENTS 


MRS. DORIS GODDU MclEOD 

Mrs. Doris Goddu McLeod of 
Falmouth, a native and former resi- 
dent of Winchester, died suddenly 
Monday morning at the Falmouth 
Hospital, to which she was taken 
after suffering a heart attack earli- 
er in the morning at her home. She 
had been in her usual health over the 
week-end and on Saturday had 
done some Christmas shopping, her 
sudden death coming as a severe 
shock to her family and friends. 

Mrs. McLeod was the daughter 
of William, and Florence (Schaef- 
fer) Goddu. She was born in Win- 
chester July 27, 1892, and grew up 
in town in the homestead built for 
her father at the corner of Chest- 
nut street and Goddu avenue by her 
grandfather, the late Louis Goddu. 
She attended the Winchester 
schools and was graduated from 
Winchester High School in the class 
of 1911, being a member of the then 
girls’ sorority, Sigma Beta. 

Mrs. McLeod made her home in 
Winchester until 1938 and was a 
member of the Winchester Choral 
Society during its existence sev- 
eral years ago. She took up resi- 
dence in Randall, Vt., in 1938 and 
lived there until 1949 when she 
went to Falmouth and became as- 
sistant librarian of the public 
library there, holding this position 
until her death. She was well and 
favorably known in Falmouth, hav- 
ing made many friends during her 
residence there. 

Mrs. McLeod leaves two daugh- 
ters, Mrs. Vemer Anderson of 
Lunenberg and Mrs. Burton W. 
Cary, Jr., of Manlius, N. Y. 

Funeral services were held in 
Winchester Wednesday afternoon, 
at Meyer Chapel of the Unitarian 
Church with the minister, Rev. 
Robert A. Storer, officiating. Bu-

NO NEW PLANS 


ALLEN LANNOM 


TO CONDUCT MYSTIC 6LEE CLUB 


The 14th annual Winter Concert 
of the Mystic Glee Club to be held 
on Saturday evening, December 12, 
in the Winchester High School Au- 
ditorium, will be directed by the 
club’s popular and dynamic con- 
ductor, Allen Lannom. 

A native Californian, widely 
known for his work on the West 
Coast. Mr. Lannom came to New 
England several years ago to be- 
come associate professor of church 
and choral music at Boston Univer- 
sity. 

Last year, his first with the club, 
he demonstrated his fine musician- 
ship and expert knowledge of en- 
semble in directing the club in its 
prize-winning performance at the 
annual contest of the New England 
Federation of Men’s Glee Clubs. 

This feat, together with the fact 
that last year’s experience hus giv- 
en both the club and director a bet- 
ter understanding of each other, 
indicates that the coming concert 
should be a high point in the club’s 
history. 


Your Star reporter ran into Don 
Greer at the Town Hall Wednesday 
; and found the usually genial chair- 
man of the Board of Selectmen, 
pretty well steamed up over an 
; article appearing in last week’s 
Star reporting that several new 
I plans for the elimination of the 
j grade crossing by means other than 
the overpass had recently come to 
light. 

Mr. Greer was very emphatic 
in denying that any new plans had 
come to the attention of the Board 
and felt that the article in the Star 
put the Selectmen in a bad light 
through implication, conveying the 
idea that they had not known all 
the facts in connection with a mat- 
ter on which the town was voting 
the day the announcement of new 
plans appeared in the Star. 

Don did admit that wherever two 
interested people had gotten to- 
gether to discuss the overhead new 
plans had been born, but that these 
plans have been in form to merit 
consideration he questioned, and 
that they had ever been presented 
to the Board for study he denied. 

The Star surely hod no intention 
of putting the Selectmen in a false 
position and we have for a long, 
long time known the Board’s atti- 
tude on the elimination of the grade 
crossing in the square. They have 
made their position very clear! 
The article was given us by a citizen 
opposed to the overhead who asked 
us to publish it to let the public 
know that opponents were even 
then attempting to find an alter- 
nate solution. 

The idea seemed to be that in the 
event the referendum did not sup- 
port the overhead plan the town 
might know that there would be 
other plans forthcoming. We knew 
nothing more than that, and had 
nothing more sinister in mind. 


NURSERY PLANNED 


LEAF COLLECTION 


RECEIVED B. A. DEGREE 


Mr. Brownell, church school su- 
perintendent of the Second Congre- 
gational Church, wishes to an- 
nounce that a nursery will be held 
during the Sunday morning ser- 
vices each week. Parents are invit- 
ed to leave their children in the 
care of capable attendants while 
they are at church. 

It is the desire of the pastor, Mr. 
Skeirik, that this new arrangement 
will encourage more parents to at- 
tend church together. 

Mrs. Cruwys and her nursery 
class will be using this room during 
the Sunday school hour. 

The Nursery is located in the far 
end of the basement. Appropriate 
signs will be displayed for your 
convenience. 


STRUCK WITH B. B. SLUGS 


David Boston Hahn, son of Dr. 
T. M. Ilahn of 9 Symmes road, 
was awarded the Bachelor of Arts 
degree in Government with a major 
in statistics during Fall Convoca- 
tion Exercises of The George Wash- 
ington University in Washington, 
D. C. . 

Mr. Hahn completed Junior Col- 
lege at Canal Zone Junior College 
in 1951. 


“Al” Lambiase, Edison Light 
employee, had an unpleasant expe- 
rience Monday night while chang- 
ing a street light at Fletcher and 
Copley streets. 

| While on a ladder engaged in the 
job he was struck in the chest by 
two slugs from an air rille, the pel- 
lets lodging in the sweater he was 
wearing. Fortunately the slugs 
were not fired higher or they eould 
easily have struck Mr. Lambiase 
in the eyes. 

He reported the matter to the 
police, stating that from his posi- 
tion on the ladder he though the 
shots came from the direction of 
Fletcher street. 


A CHANCE TO HELP 

Many elderly and infirm persons, as well as those with small 
children and limited incomes, need help at Thanksgiving and 
Christmas if these holidays are to be happy occasions in accord- 
ance with the American tradition. 

To help our less fortunate Winchester friends during the 
holiday season gifts of money, coal, food and clothing are earnestly 
solicited. 

(lifts may be sent to the Winchester Community Relief 
Committee. 

George T. Davidson, Chairman 
19 Park Avenue, WI 6-2616

There appears to be some mis- 
understanding in the town as to the 
use of the town-owned and-operated 
leaf collectors. 

These large machines which act 
like oversized vacuum cleaners do 
an excellent job of removing leaves, 
particularly when dry. They have 
been of great value to the street 
department in speeding up this 
operation and facilitating the dis- 
posal of the leaves. 

Many Winchester landowners, 
seeing the ease with which this de- 
vice is clearing the gutters of 
leaves, have adopted the practice of 
raking all the leaves from their 
property into the streets. This has 
multiplied the work of the leaf col- 
lecting crews manyfold. 

This equipment was purchased to 
take care of the leaves that normal- 
ly fall into the public ways. The 
two leaf collectors the town owns 
are barely adequate to keep up with 
this work. If property owners con- 
tinue to add to the burden by plac- 
ing their own leaves in the public 
ways it is obvious that the town’s 
equipment cannot hope to collect 
all the leaves before snow flies. 

It is doubtful that the town will 
buy as many additional leaf collec- 
tors as would be required to collect 
everyone’s leaves. 

Furthermore, the placing of 
leaves and other such material in 
the streets from private properties 
is illegal according to Article III, 
section 6 of the General By-laws 
of the Town. 

The attention of all residents is 
called to this practice which should 
he discontinued immediately.

OPEN HOUSE AT CALIDYNE 

The Calidyne Company, one of 
Winchester’s new businesses, held 
open house all last week at their 
fine new plant at 120 Cross street 
near the railroad bridge. Custom- 
ers and sules representatives, the 
people who actually deal with Cali- 
dyne, were entertained during the 
first three days of the week, and 
were absorbed in the various steps 
and processes that go into the ma- 
chines they buy. 

Thursday evening the company 
was host to its employees and their 
families and friends, and last Fri- 
day afternoon from 4:30 until 6 
o’clock local businessmen and non- 
business friends of the company 
were shown through the plant. 

Several hundred enjoyed the 
company’s hospitality, and a de- 
licious buffet luncheon waiting for 
the guests after they had made the 
round of the plant. The young 
ladies of the office staff with color- 
ful corsages met the guests as they 
entered and after signing the guest 
book, the visitors, in small groups, 
picked up a company employee 
serving as guide and began their 
tour, going first through the draft- 
ing rooms and from there to the 
machine and assembling rooms, the 
winding room, power plant, ship- 
ping and receiving room, coordinat- 
ing room and back to the general 
offices and private offices of the 
company owners, Robert C. Lewis 
of 41 Wildwood street, Thomas 
Gouzoule of 108 Arlington street, 
and Philip C. Efromson of 22 Hill- 
side avenue. L. W. Kelpley of 
Waltham is plant manager. 

A lay man, such as your Star 
reporter, was more or less mysti- 
fied by such machines as breakers, 
shearers, shapers and vibrators, 
one of which was by means of 
vibration actually playing music 
while making it possible for the 
listener to see the sound delcibels 
going up and down, now showing 
faintly, now sharply, in a small red 
finder. 

Even a layman can appreciate 
the precision work done in the 
clean, attractively laid-out plant, 
the fine mill work and the individ- 
ual assembling of the attractive 
consoles and chassis with their 
mystifying dials and controls. Here 
are machines that measure the 
vibration of airplane wings before 
they are sent into the air, there are 
other machines used in the new 
radar field. Some are made for 
the government, others for those 
who produce for the government. 
Everywhere is evidence of rigid 
precision. 

Aside from care-takers and 
janitors, there is no unskilled labor 
at Calidyne, and many of the em- 
ployees have engineering degrees 
from leading universities and 
technical schools. They were 
present on Friday and busy 
answering the questions of the 
more technically erudite of the 
visitors. 

While your Star reporter was 
there he saw many familiar faces, 
including Dr. Nelson Fontneau, 
who knew a surprising lot about 
the various machines in the shop; 
Horace Ford of Horace Ford’s res- 
taurant, Chief Charles J. Harrold 
of the Police Department, Select- 
men William C. Cusack and J. 
Joseph Tansey, former Selectman 
Harry Chefalo, local plumbing 
contractor; Vin Ambrose of Win- 
chester Trust Company, Billy Sul- 
livan of the Winchester National 
Bank, Jack Chitel of ChitePs Men’s 
Shop, and his father-in-law, Sam 
Alman, Don Simonds of Don-0 
products and Ted Burleigh, also 
Walter and Mrs. Hawkes. Others 
were coming and going all the time. 

So many have asked what Cali- 
dyne is that we print below: 

“The Calidyne Story” 

The Beginning 

It started with an idea. And, in 
January 1948, Robert C. Lewis and 
Philip C. Efromson formed a 
partnership to design, manufacture 
and sell electro-dynamic instru- 
ments to he used for vibration- 
testing of industrial, military and 
commercial products. Some six 
months luter, Thomas Gouzoule 
joined forces with Lewis and 
Efromson to complete the partner- 
ship as it exists today. 

The Name 

It is claimed that “Calidyne” is 
a coined word pulled out of thin 
air. But, its implications combine 
the words “Calibrate” and “dy- 
j namics.” From this the inference 
j can be drawn that it means the 
| “measurement of a dynamic force” 
! such as Vibration. 

Early Years 

For many months, Calidyne had 
no employees. The partners did all 
the work including engineering, 
purchasing, manufacturing and 
; selling. But, by January I960, two 
; years later, two machinists, a 
stenographer and a part-time elec- 
trical technician were on the pay- 
roll. The “plant” consisted of a 
small part of an old garage at 751 
Main street in Winchester. The 
first machine tool was a second- 
hand bench milling machine.

REFERENDUM VOTE BY PRECINCTS 

Elimination of Grade Crossing in the Centro 
and Construction of n Tra flic Bypass 


SURVEYORS 
AT SWANTON STREET 

As a result of the hearing the 
Board of Selectmen conducted with 
residents of the Swanton street 
area shortly after the town meeting 
of October 22nd at which the grade 
crossing project was approved, the 
Selectmen made* certain sugges- 
tions and recommendations to the 
State Department of Public Works. 

Commissioner Volpe hus instruct- 
ed the engineers to make further 
studies of the areu. Surveyors 
were on the job this week getting 
additional information. It is hoped 
that the data they are securing may 
make it possible to develop a plan 
of access roads which will be more 
convenient for the residents of the 
area. The Selectmen, the Depart- 
ment of Public Works and the con- 
sulting engineers are continuing to 
work on this problem.

OVERHEAD VOTED 


REFERENDUM SUPPORTED 
LIMITED TOWN MEETING 


MESSIAH TO BE PRESENTED 


By a vote of 2,982 to 2,109 the 
referendum election held last Fri- 
day, supported the members of the 
limited town meeting, held October 
22, when it was voted 143 to 23, to 
approve the overhead tracks plan 
for the elimination of the grade 
crossing und to authorize the Se- 
lectmen, or chairman of the Board 
of Selectmen, to enter into definite 
agreements with the State Depart- 
ment of Public Works and any other 
parties in interest which will bring 
about the elimination of the grade 
crossing and provide therewith a 
traffic bypass around the center; 
and to appropriate $190,000 as the 
town’s entire share of the expense 
of the project. 

This is the second referendum 
held on the overhead plan for the 
elimination of the grade crossing, 
a previous one having been held in 
April of 1952. At that time the 
overhead plan won out 3,120 to 
1,742, the referendum supporting 
the action of the March* town meet- 
ing. the members of which voted 
for the overhead 151 to 1. 

Last Friday’s referendum shows 
a loss in votes for the overhead of 
138 and a gain of 367 for those op- 
posing the plan. The total vote 
this time was larger, 5,096 going to 
the polls last Friday and 4,862 in 
April, 1952. In that year slightly 
more than 54 percent of the 9,000 
voters expressed their preference, 
and this year’s vote was no better 
percentage-wise, in fact it was just 
the same, 54 percent plus. 

In view of the advance interest, 
and the heat of the campaign over 
the weeks since the special meeting 
in October it does not speak too 
well for the voters’ interest in a 
major project having a lasting in- 
fluence on the future of the town 
that only 54 percent of the elect- 
orate would take the trouble to 
vote. 

This year’s campaign was fully 
as hot as its predecessor, with 
every possible effort being made to 
ic*..h the voters, including adver- 
tising in the newspapers, telephone 
solicitation and the distribution of 
pamphlets and flyers to the house- 
holders. 

The Selectmen had distributed 
with the warrants for the referen- 
dum a pamphlet explaining the 
overhead and giving the reasons 
leading them to recommend it to 
the town. This was countered by a 
flyer fairly widely circulated by 
John C. Wakefield, Mrs. Alonzo 
Woodside and a group of opponents 
of the plan. 

The going got pretty heavy 
toward the end of the campaign 
with each side accusing the other 
of misrepresentation and each side 
battling hard right up to the very 
last minute. 

As before, Mrs. Woodside was the 
chief leader of the opposition to 
the overhead, though this time she 
was accorded rather more support 
than last year. She faced a hercu- 
lean task in opposing the Select- 
men, Finance Committee, Planning 
Board and a large and prominent 
body of former town officials, hut 
she and her supporters went down 
fighting, and even as late as noon 
time on the day of the referendum 
advocutes of the overhead were in- 
dulging in few very long breaths. 

This year’s referendum vote ran 
consistently ahead of the vote in 
’52, according to Town Clerk Mabel 
W. Stinson. Following are the 
votes cast by times: 

1953 1952 

11:30 a. m. 1686 1557 

2:45 p. m. 2630 2401 

4:45 p. m. 3363 3117 

7 :00 p. m. 5096 4869 

In another column the referen- 
dum vote is given by precincts and 
doubtless this tabulation will prove 
interesting to those who like to 
analyze u vote and see where the 
pros and cons are located. 

Only two precincts, 1 and 6, had 
a majority against the overhead, 
and in neither was the majority 
heavy, 81 votes in 1 and 32 in 6. 
This last majority was a hit sur- 
prising as was the 138 majority 
for the overhead in Precinct 2, the 
Plains precinct, where opposition 
to the overhead was said to be 
strong. 


Sunday, December 13, at four o’- 
clock in the Winchester Unitarian 
Church, will be the occasion of the 
second public performance in Win- 
chester of the Christmas section 
and the Hallelujah Chorus of Han- 
del’s “Messiah”. That will be ex- 
actly 211 years and 8 months from 
the time of its first performance 
anywhere, which happened to be at 
a concert in Dublin, Ireland. As 
the story goes, Handel wrote this 
oratorio — in 24 days, incidentally, 
generally considered to be a record 
for the course — with a thoughtful 
regard for certain distinct limita- 
tions in Dublin’s orchestral and 
choral resources. The “Messiah” 
is not a particularly complex piece. 
It has the size and dignity and 
melodic beauty which have made it 
perhaps the one great classic work 
of music automatically connected 
with Christmas in the minds of 
many people for many years; but 
its theme is fundamentally simple 
rather than elaborate, philosophical 
rather than emotional. 

The “Messiah” was a tremendous 
popular success from the beginning. 
Handel, until his death, brought it 
out every year in London to great 
applause; it is the work by which 
he is most familiarly known to 
most of us; and most of us know 
about the tradition, presumably 
started by King George II of Eng- 
land, that the congregation rises 
and remains standing through the 
Hallelujah Chorus. Also, it has 
been the subject of much editing, 
re-arranging, and “interpretation” 
in vocal and orchestral parts alike, 
by Handelian scholars of vast cate- 
gory from Mozart to Vincent No- 
vello, all doubtless convinced that 
they were improving on the ori- 
ginal. 

However that may be, the ver- 
sion to be presented December 13, 
by the augmented Winchester Uni- 
tarian Choir is authentically re- 
ported to be virtually as Handel 
originally composed it. The “Mes- 
siah” is so traditional an associa- 
tion of the Christmas season that 
there is no need to emphasize here 
that this forthcoming performance 
should not be missed.

RAILS AFFECT PLANT DISPERSAL 


ADVENT SERIES 


Pastor A. John Skeirik of the 
Second Congregational Church will 
begin his Advent Series this com- 
ing Sunday. For Sunday, Novem- 
ber 29, Mr. Skeirik will be talking 
on the subject of “In Search of a 
King.” which will be a modern 
parable of life drawn from the 
sto v v of* tfio Three Wise Me”. 

On Sunday, December 6, the top- 
ic will be “The Incarnation.” An 
attempt will he made to present 
a brief historical explanation of 
how this word came into the 
Christian History. Then he will 
evaluate its meaning to the modern 
Christian. 

The December 13th topic will be 
“In the Beginning,” at which time 
Mr. Skeirik will present the spirit- 
ual birth of Christ as found in the 
Gospel of John. 

Christmas Sunday, December 20, 
will conclude the Advent Series. 
The pastor will consider the true 
depth and beauty of Christmas, 
pointing to the need of making 
this holiday a holy day. The topic 
will be “A Mother and a Babe.” 


HISTORY OF METHODIST CHURCH 

This coming Sunday morning at 
the 10:45 a. m. service, Rev. John 
Snook, Jr., pastor of the Crawford 
Memorial Methodist Church, will 
preach on the subject, “Through 
the Years.” Part of the source of 
the pastor’s material will be taken 
from a history of the church, writ- 
ten by the late Albert B. Bent, en- 
titled “Through the Years.” 

Mr. Bent spent literally hundreds 
of hours over a period of several 
years gathering information for this 
fine historical record. The writing of 
this history covers over seventy 
pages and records valuable infor- 
mation of .the progress of the 
church from 1871, when the church 
had its beginning, through the next 
80 years to 1951. The labors and 
sacrifices of the members of the 
church, resulting in the present 
beautiful edifice, tells an interest- 
ing story of Christian loyalty. 
Members and friends of the com- 
Ouly 101 votes separated the pro- munity are welcome to this special 
ponents and opponents in 3, where I service, 
there is a good deal of opposition 


“The nation’s railroads are tak- 
ing a highly important part in the 
vast dispersal of industry for de- 
fense movement,” an industry 
spokesman said in Woburn Wed- 
nesday evening, November 18. 

Charles P. O’Rourke, Jr., of 
Symmes road, former Winchester 
High athlete, a member of the 
freight traffic department of the 
Boston & Maine Railroad, told 
members of the Woburn “Y” 
Men’s Club how the railroads’ 
industrial departments help locate 
new industries and relocate old 
ones. 

“One Eastern railroad helped lo- 
cate and relocate 336 permanent in- 
dustries along its lines in 1952,” he 
said. 

Mr. O’Rourke spoke under the 
auspices of the Railroad Commu- 
nity Committee of Greater Boston, 
recently organized by the Eastern 
Railroad Presidents Conference. 
The meeting was held in the Wo- 
burn YMCA. 

The speaker emphasized the es- 
sential nature of the railroads’ par- 
ticipation in the industry dispersal 
trend. “Many large firms have re- 
located with the help of engineers 
in our industrial departments,” he 
said. 

“They not only help choose a 
proper location for the firm, but 
handle problems of light, power 
and other utilities, survey labor 
markets and availability of hous- 
ing, schools, stores and other nec- 
essary items. 

“We have a number of new 
industries located in Woburn and 
Wilmington and other areas along 
the road’s right of way. And, of 
course, while we are helping the 
new industries we are also helping 
ourselves — but the end in view is 
much more far reaching than n 
railroad grab for business.” 

.»lr. O’Rourke outlined the 
growth and development of the 
railroads and said thut they are 
now spending more than $1 billion 
a year on improvement and moder- 
nization — $8 billion in eight years, 
“more than what the country has 
spent on atomic power.” 

He told his hearers that nearly 
j all of them, as insurance policy 
holders at least, are investors in 
the nation’s railroads. 

As investors, he told them they 
should be interested in such things 
as the number of rail employees — 
1,226,000 in the country, 12,600 on 
the B & M — and the annual payroll, 
which runs to nearly $5 and 1/3 
billion nationally. 

He said it takes an average of 
$21,436 to start one railroad man 
on his job, exclusive of wages. 

The railroad tax bill for last 
year, he said, came to $1 Vfe billion. 
“On the local level,” he said, “the 
Boston & Maine alone paid out 
$2,944,000 in taxes, both state and 
municipal.” 

As for the national railroad tax 
bill, Mr. O’Rourke said: 

“In terms of money the railroads 
took in, this means that all their 
revenue from passenger traffic, plus 
all the money they received for ex- 
press shipments, plus two-thirds of 
their revenue for carrying mail 
were required to pay their local, 
state and federal taxes.”

TO START ON OVERPASS SOON 


In an attempt to satisfy a gene- 
ral curiosity the Star yesterday 
asked Chairman Don S. Greer of 
the Board of Selectmen how soon 
work on the overpass to eliminate 
the grade crossing will commence. 

Mr. Greer was not sure of the 
exact time, but did state that sev- 
eral of the contracts were in 
shape to be let out for bids and 
that it is believed that work on the 
trestle at the Woburn loop would 
start in the near future. 

How soon the main job will get 
underway has not been determined 
as yet, but work which has to be 
done where the soil is wet and 
mucky can best be done when the 
weather is cold.

HEAVY RAIN 


Winchester had its second heavy 
rainfall of the week Wednesday, 
though the downfall was not so 
heavy as that of Monday morning, 
when a high wind as well as heavy 
rain made things doubly un- 
pleasant. 

Streets were flooded on both 
days, the accumulation of leaves 
in the gutters around catch-basins 
preventing the surface drainage 
system from functioning properly. 

Cellars were flooded around town 
and on Wednesday about noon time 
the Fire Department was called to 
the home of Michael Colucci at 80 
Nelson street where water from a 
flooded gutter was entering the 
house through a basement window. 

Football fans could be spotted 
anywhere by their careworn ex- 
pressions, for Wednesday’s heavy 
rain would do the gridiron turf on 
Manchester Field no good for the 
turkey game with Woburn while 
the continued lowery skies boded 
no good weather on the holiday. 

SLIDE LECTURE ON MADONNAS 

St. Mary’s Sodality will sponspr 
a slide lecture on Madonnas at the 
Lincoln School hall, Tuesday eve- 
ning, December 1st, at 8:30, imme- 
diately following the regular meet- 
ing in the lower Church. 

The lecture, which is conducted 
by Rev. Joseph P. McCall, will por- 
tray the various paintings of the 
Madonna as depicted in the master- 
pieces of the great artists of the 
13th to the 17th centuries. The 
event is very appropriate for the 
coming Christmas season and is be- 
ing anticipated with a great deal 
of enthusiasm. The lecture is open 
to members and their friends. 


COLLISION ON WEST SIDE 


Pontiac sedans, driven by Warrerr 
F. Goddu of 11 Marshall road and 
Ambia H. MacDonald of 37 Wedge- 
mere avenue, were in collision at 
the intersection of Wedgemere 
avenue and Foxcroft road shortly 
before 5 o’clock Tuesday afternoon. 

According to the police the God- 
du machine was headed east on 
Foxcroft road, and the MacDonald 
car going south on Wedgemere 
avenue. There were no injuries 
reported, but both cars were dam- 
aged, the Goddu sedan being towed 
by Haggerty’s wrecker to Moody 
Motors, Inc.

ing factor in Inst Friday’s refer- 
endum. There were other factors 
of course. The proponents made 
much of the argument that those 
opposing the overhead had no other 
plan to offer, while the opposition 
countered with the claim that no 
plan hut the overhead would he 
ronsidered. Some undoubtedly vot- 
ed against the plan to save the 
$100,000 which is the town’s share 
of the six million dollar project, 
while others argued that to get six 
million dollars worth of construc- 
tion for $100,000 is a good deal. 
Some were undoubtedly influenced 
by the warning of overhead pro- 
ponents that if Winchester did not 
tnkc the six million, it would go to 
some other community. Each side 
accused the other of misrepresen- 
tation and very probably neither 
was wholly blameless in this re- 
pect. For example the proponents’ 
claim of deaths due t«» the rail- 
road differed widely from that 
of the legal department of the Bos- 
ton & Maine Railroad published by 
the other side. Some of the claims 
were not pretty, and undoubtedly 
personalities entered into the final 
decision of the voters to far too 
great an extent. From all the argu- 
ments, pro and con, one fact 
emerges clearly. The limited town 
meeting delegates can not be 
argued to represent the feelings of 
their respective precincts when a 
vote passed by a limited town 
meeting with the overwhelming 
majority of 143 to ‘23 can get by in 
a referendum vote, under the most 
favorable of conditions, by only 
873 votes out of 5,096 cast. 


The Star was interested this week 
to be told that because of the “land 
takings” involved in the overhead 
tracks and diversionary highway 
project the vote, both at town meet- 
ing and in referendum should have 
required a two-thirds majority to 
pass. The town meeting vote was 
away in excess of two thirds, but 
the referendum would have deci- 
sively beaten the proposal to raise 
the tracks had a two thirds vote 
been necessary. The Star, when 
told of the two-thirds vote angle, 
felt that perhaps such a vote would 
not apply in the case of the over- 
head since the land money was ap- 
propriated for damages and not 
takings. As we understand it, ex- 
cept for a small bit at the Win- 
chester Drug corner all the land to 
he used for the temporary tracks 
and permanent construction of the 
overnead can he returned to the 
owners. In the case of the diver- 
sionary highway some of the abut- 
tors are losing strips of land per- 
manently, and if the town was tak- 
ing the land, a two-thirds vote 
would be necessary. In every in- 
stance however, the State is taking 
the land, permanently or other- 
wise, so that the town has nothing 
to say about the matter, except to 
pay the $190,000 which the State 
has designated as our portion of 
the land damages. The State of 
course needs no vote by a city or 
town to take land, either tempor- 
arily or permanently. 

The votes are in and counted 
and it now looks definitely as 
though we are going to have the 
railroad tracks raised from ap- 
proximately the Medford to the 
Woburn line to eliminate the grade 
crossing in the center. The pro- 
ponents of the overhead plan are 
now rejoicing in their victory and 
those opposed to the great wall 
through town are dreading its com- 
ing erection. As opposing the 
overhead, the Star would feel a lot 
better about the outcome of last 
week’s referendum if a larger pro- 
portion of the town's citizens had 
evinced a greater interest in rais- 
ing the tracks through town and a 
greater proportion of the town’s 
electorate had voted for the scheme. 
At the time of the previous referen- 
dum on the overhead only a little 
more than 54 percent of the town’s 
registered voters went to the polls, 
and many were disturbed over 
what was thought to be an inexcus- 
able apathy over a matter of im- 
portance affecting the town for all 
time. This year’s vote, though 
larger, 5,096 to 4,869 in April of 
’52, is still no better percentage 
wise than the previous 54 percent, 
being virtually the same. As a 
matter of fact, and in spite of re- 
peated announcements that a great 
majority of the citizens of the town 
favor the overhead, only about 32 
percent of the 9,421 registered 
voters have been recorded in favor. 
Actually more than 33 percent of 
the approximately 9,000 voters in 
April, ’52, voted for the overhead 
at the previous referendum. The 
official census figures of 1950 total 
the town’s population at 15,567, and 
even with this figure, which of 
course is too low, even for 1950, 
slightly less than 13 percent of the 
town’s inhabitants want the over- 
head tracks. Granting, of course, 
that all the town’s population is not 
adult and eligible to vote, the per- 
centage of those who want the 
great wall through town still is not 
impressive, though we will have to 
admit it is greater than those who 
by their vote at least have signified 
that they do not want it. The pro- 
ponents had a strong hand to play 
from. With the Selectmen, Plan- 
ning Board, Finance Committee and 
the State Commissioner of Public 
Works recorded for raising the 
tracks, not to mention the last 
minute boost from the Assessors, 
those leuding the opposition had a 
really tough row to hoe, particular- 
ly in view of the gospel that had 
been widely spread to the effect 
that it was the “overhead or noth- 
ing”. Undoubtedly those who felt 
strongly enough that something 
had to be done about traffic in the 
square, went for this reasoning, 
and we believe this was the deeid- 


MOZART LIKE MAPLE SYRUP! 


Editor of the Star: 

Every fall hundreds of hopeful 
parents arrange for music lessons 
with enthusiastic teachers, and 
hundreds of children, with dreams 
of making music, go to their first 
lesson. How many teacher hours 
and little boy and girl hours are 
needed to make one dream come 
true ? 

Judging by the innumerable 
adults who had music lessons in 
their youth but now “Can’t play a 
note”, who wish their parents had 
made them practice, who wish their 
parents had not forced them to 
practice, there has been an enor- 
mous waste of time, effort, and 
money, and this waste, with ac- 
companying feelings of regret or 
resentment, will go on unless cer- 
tain facts are recognized and cer- 
tain things brought under control. 

A Mozart sonata is like maple 
syrup. It takes five gallons of 
technique to produce one pint of 
pure Mozart. Let’s face the first 
fact. The child has to practice, and 
practice every day. The other fact is 
that the teacher sees her pupil once 
a week, or at best, twice, and, if she 
is worth her salt, will send the 
child home full of ambition ana 
enthusiasm. What happens to that 
enthusiasm? Is it put to work and 
kept alive, or allowed to evaporate 
through lack of planning, or stifled 
by a multiplicity of other matters 
clamoring for the child’s attention? 
Who is responsible for it, 

If a parent assumes this respon- 
sibility, good! Heifetz, himself a 
parent, believes that “the parental 
attitude is the main factor in mak- 
ing the difference between a suc- 
cessful musical education and a 
botched-up business, in which the 
child resents the parents, and the 
parents feel they are wasting 
money on the lessons, and the prac- 
tice hour becomes a pitched battle.” 

We all know those pitched bat- 
tles! How can they be avoided? 
But remember, the child wants 
music. He himself probably asked 
for the lessons. Every child under- 
stands the need for practice in 
games and sports, and not one be- 
grudges the hours of practice on 
the playing field or in the gymna- 
sium. He has already accepted the 
idea of practicing and certainly at 
first he is willing and eager to 
practice. Then how do we keep 
him eager and willing? Here is 
where careful planning and cooper- 
ation is needed. 

Help the child choose a con- 
venient time for practicing, and a 


place too, if the instrument is not 
the piano, then stick to it. Protect 
that time and the child from en- 
croachments and distractions. Like 
a dental appointment, there simply 
are no arguments against keeping 
it. Also, decide with him in ad : 
vance how he is to he reminded, 
should he forget. A gentle re- 1 
minder, even a look, can he turned 
into “nngging” by a guilty mind. 
He may prefer to keep his own 
practice chart. 

By all means surround him with 
music to keep his goal in sight and 
remind him what the practice is for. 
Play with him. Play for him. Play 
for yourself. It will do you good 
as well ns him. Take him to con- 
certs. Tune in to the wonderful 
concerts offered by TV and radio. 
Buy him records. Don’t ask him if 
he had a “good lesson”, but show 
genuine interest in what he is 
learning, and why, and how. Cu- 
riosity stimulates, enthusiasm is 
contagious, and appreciation and 
encouragement work wonders. 

Today’s competition for time and 
attention is not confined to our 
children. Aren’t we all in the same 
maddening dilemma of having con- 
stantly to choose what we consider 
most worth our tiipe and attention 
and letting less important things 
go? Perhaps if we help our chil 
dren to learn to make a wise sclec 
tion of activities they will not have 
ulcers and break -clowns when they 
reach our age. 

There is no age limit to the mak- 
ing of music. The practice and 
playing of the game is more impor 
tant than the outcome. Time spent 
now in practicing and playing 
music is an adventure into the 
world of sound — a world of time- 
less beauty with no boundaries, no 
tensions, and is an investment for 
an enriched life to the t>nd.

THANKING WORKERS 

November 24, 1953 
Editor of the Star: 

May we through your columns 
express our sincere appreciation to 
all those who worked for the suc- 
cess of the grade crossing project 
in the referendum. 

We are very glad that tin* action 
of our Town Meeting Members has 
been sustained by the voters and 
we feel sure that when the project 
is complete an even larger percent 
of our townspeople will agree that 
Winchester has been greatly bene- 
fited. 

Sincerely yours, 

Committee for Grade Crossing 
Elimination and Traffic By-Pass 
Ralph H. Ronnell 
Harry E. Chefalo 
Nicholas H. Fitzgerald 
Harry L. Mueller 
Harrison F. Lyman, Jr. 

Harris S. Richardson 

Vincent Farnsworth, Jr., Chrmn. 


CORRECTION 

We got our raises mixed a trifle 
in last week’s Star as we reported 
the recommendations of the Per- 
sonnel Committee accepted by the 
special town meeting of November 
16. Fred Ives, chairman of the 
Board of Park Commissioners, in- 
forms us that it was the superin- 
tendent of the Park Department 
whose maximum pay was advanced 
from $3500 to $4000, and not the 
superintendent of the Cemetery 
Department, as printed in the Star. 
The Cemetery superintendent’s 
maximum was advanced from 
$3500 to $3700. Sorry “Babe”, and 
incidentally, “Joe”! 

We made another mistake in our 
report of the meeting, in connection 
with the authority voted the Se- 
lectmen to appoint a new police 
officer to the local department for 
traffic duty exclusively. We re- 
ported that the sum of $3080 was 
appropriated from Excess and De- 
ficiency for this purpose, in accord- 
ance with the motion as printed in 
the warrant. Actually the mo- 
tion passed by the special meeting 
made no appropriation for the 
officer, though it voted the Select- 
men authority to appoint one Jan- 
uary 1.

TO THE 

PARENTS OF WINCHESTER 

The Winchester District Com- 
mittee of the Fellslnnd Council, 
Inc., requests that you rend ench 
and every word thnt follows. It is 
vital to you as parents of hoys who 
are now Cubs, Scouts and Explor- 
ers, ns well ns those parents who 
have young sons who arc soon to 
enter the movement as Cubs and 
advance through the trails of 
Scouting. 

The Boy Scouts of America real- 
ize the great responsibility which 
is being placed upon it ns the lead- 
ing institution and organization to 
instill leadership, character and 
moral stamina in the growing boys 
of every community in which the 
Scouting movement is sponsored. 

Over the years more than 20,- 
000,000 hoys have participated and 
enjoyed the advantage of Cubbing, 
Scouting and Exploring. To-day 
the organization, on a nation-wide 
basis, furnishes more than 2,300 
professionals to the various Coun- 
cils to provide the program to over 
3.148,000 Scouters. There are also 
more than 847,000 volunteer per- 
sonnel such as arc requested by the 
Scoutmasters, Cubmasters, Com- 
mitteemen and women, Den 
Mothers and so on up through the 
District Councils, Regional and 
National organizations. 

What does this all mean to you 
as an individual parent in Winches- 
ter? It means that there is avail- 
able in your Town one of the great- 
est movements for good, to preveht 
juvenile delinquency, to develop 
family participation and create a 
greater understanding between 
parent and son. It means regard- 
less of race, color or creed that 
your son who participates in this 
program shall receive and he in- 
stilled with the fundamental prin- 
ciples which, if followed, will de- 
velop him into a citizen who will 
he respected in his community. 

Because of the rapidity of ex- 
pansion in Winchester (1952-450 to 
1953-700) in our Explorer Posts, 
Scout Troons and Cub Packs, the 
District Committee has felt that an 
appeal must be made to the parents 
of Winchester to come forward and 
volunteer their services in any 
capacity for which they feel they 
are qualified, or for which they are 
willing to be trained. Within the 
next year we will need the services 
of Scoutmasters, as new Scout 
Troops must be formed. We will 
need six Cubmasters over and above 
the replacement of the present 
Cubmasters (who just become 
worn out). Several of your packs 
are now caring for over ninety- 1 
cubs — too large for efficient oper- 
ation. To hack up these Scoutmas- 
ters and Cubmasters likewise re- 
quires extra personnel in the form 
of committeemen and Den Mothers. 

All we need is your willingness 
to eo-operate, we have the instruc- 
tors and literature to inform you 
of this stupendous program. 

There are among you many will- 
ing parents and there are too, many 
who were Scouts in their youth, 
Eagles, Life, Star, First Class and 
other Scouts who realize what 
Scouting has meant to them. 

Please, your cooperation and 
help is needed. Volunteer! Call 
Winchester G-2030 or write your 
chairman at Fellsland Council, Inc., 
South Border road, Winchester. 

Thank you for your interest. 

James M. Joslin, Chairman 


OPEN HOUSE AT CALIDYHE 

(Continued from Page 1) 

— — — 

Expansion 

In January 1951, there were still 
only nine employees but it was in 
this year that the company became 
known and recognized. A demand 
developed for its products. Expan- 
sion began in earnest. The Win- 
chester building became over- 
crowded and overflowed into addi- 
tional manufacturing space in Wo- 
burn. Soon, both buildings became 
overcrowded and a completely new 
and modern building was expressly 
planned for Calidyne. A site was 
selected on Cross street and con- 
struction was begun. In June 
1953, the entire operation was con- 
solidated and moved into the new 
building. 

Growth 

Calidyne now consists of more 
than a hundred people and growth 
in sales has been proportional to 
people. In 1962, sales were 240* V 
higher than in 1951. And. for the 
first eight months of 1953, they 
were 40' , higher than for the 
same period in 1952. A strong 
backlog of orders still exists. 

Prospects 

Our products are largely used by 
manufacturers of airplanes and 
many other devices which call for 
careful design and testing for 
critical usage by military and 
civilian agencies. But, the demand 
is great and the future encourag- 
ing. Applications for Calidyne 
products also exist in general in- 
dustry. 

Products 

Our primary interest is in vibra- 
tion measurement, and Calidyne 
products all stem from this interest. 
Yet, they still cover a wide field in 
types and principles of operation. 
Our shakers and calibrators are the 
best known. These are used for 
shake-testing (vibrating) various 
objects such as assemblies, ma- 
chines, vacuum tubes, etc., to see 
what effect actual vibration in 
service will do to them. Our other 
products such as Calivolters, 
Vibrascopes, Ratio Boxes, Signal 
Monitors, etc., are more complex 
instruments for precise laboratory 
and other scientific vibration 
| measurements. 

Custom Quality 

There is no production line at 
I Calidyne. Each Calidyne instru- 
i ment is custom built to fill a parti- 
I cular order and the parts we manu- 
facture are made only as and when 
required. Work assignments vary 
sufficiently to maintain interest and 
call for both initiative and in- 
gonuiU’. These conditions all call 
for people of unusual ability and 
special skill, people who enjoy their 
work and are willing and able to 
develop new methods and tech- 
niques, people who get along well 
together. This is why you can de- 
pend on Calidyne.

Men and women who remain in 
active military service after De- 
cember 31, 1953, or enter service 
after that date will get social 
security wage credits under the 
old-age ami suvivors insurance 
program, the Cambridge social 
security office, declared today. 

A newly enacted amendment to 
the law extends the period of mili- 
tary service coverage to July 1, 
1955. Persons in service will get 
$160 a month social security wage 
credits for each month of active 
duty until that date. Under the 
previous law, social security mili- 
tary wage credits did not apply to 
months of active service after De- 
cember 31, 1953. 

The Manager of the Cambridge 
office pointed out that this amend- 
ment to the Social Security Act is 
of particular value to those who 
will not complete their period of 
active military service this year, 
and to those newly entering mili- 
tary service. It will be of advan- 
tage also to some career service 
persons who completed their 30 
years of service during the World 
War II period and who are still on 
active duty. They will continue to 
get $160 a month social security 
wage credits until mid-1955. 

Another provision of the amend- 
ed law extends the time for filing 
application for lump-sum death 
payments. This is of interest to 
survivors of service persons who 
die outside the United States after 
December 1953, and whose remains 
are returned to any one of the 48 
States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto 
Rico, or the Virgin Islands for 
burial or reburial. Under the 
amended law, lump-sum payments 
may he made in case death occurred 
in active service abroad before 
July 1955 provided application 
for the payment is made within 
two years of the date of burial or 
reburial.

Man’s God-given dominion over evil of 
every sort will b<* emphasized at Christian 
Science services Sunday. 

’’Ancient nnd Modern Necromancy, alias 
Mesmerism nnd Hypnotism, Denounced” 1 h 
the subject of tile Lt sson-Sermon. The 
Bible rending contains this passage from 

Ephesians: 

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the 
Lord, and in the power of his might. 
Wherefore take unto you the whole ar- 
mour of God, that ye may be able to with- 
stand In the evil dny. nnd having done nil, 
to stand" (6:10,13). 

The following passage will he rend from 
Science nnd Hcnlth with Key to the Scrip- 
tuns" by Mary Baker Eddy: 

"There is no power apart from God. 
Omnipotence has all-power, and to ac- 
knowledge any other power is to dishonor 

God" (228:26-27). 

The Golden Text is from III John: 
"Beloved, follow not that which is evil, 
but thnt which is good. He thnt doeth 
goo, I is of God: but he thnt doeth evil hath 
not Been God" (1 : 1 1 >.

England’s old cathedral town of 
Salisbury, long overcrowded, seeks 
to swallow its parent. 

The city council, notes the Na- 
tional Geographic Society, has ask- 
ed to annex more than 1,000 acres 
of the surrounding Wiltshire coun- 
tryside. And in the 1,000 acres 
lies Old Sarum, from which the 
populace followed their clergy 
more than 700 years ago to found 
nearby New Sarum, now called 
Salisbury. 

G. I. Memories 

American soldiers of two wars, 
training on the grassy Salisbury 
Plain to fight in France and Ger- 
many, well remember the pictur- 
esque city. Through 13th century 
gateways, they passed on their 
short days of leave into narrow 
streets flanked by small neat 
houses with red roofs. Warm and 
friendly townspeople welcomed 
them. 

In beamed public rooms of an- 
cient inns — tte White Hart, the 
Rose and Crown and the Old 
George — they lolled on Jacobean 
furniture before crackling log fires 
while they learned the pleasant 
British custom of tea at 4 p. m. 

They fed the friendly ducks and 
swans in the clean, weedy rivers, 
one of them the Avon, that come 
together at Salisbury. Returning 
to barracks in the misty dark, they 
met the cheerful little owls of rural 
England, hooting unafraid beside 
the winding lanes. 

Hundreds of them, on sunny 
Sundays and moon-drenched nights, 
climbed the green slopes of the 
great mound that is Old Sarum to- 
day. But few knew they lolled and 
romanced on the original Salisbury. 

Men of prehistory who carried 
huge stones down from Wales to 
build Stonehenge a few miles away 
may also have built at Old Sarum. 
Whatever its origin, Roman in- 
vaders took over a town in being 
and called it Sorbiodunum. 

Home of Kings 

Kings of Wessex followed to 
erect a moated castle, a cathedral 
and homes for their followers. 
Jammed closely together, clergy 
and soldiery squabbled continually. 
One day the soldiers locked out the 
priests, who promptly started 
building New Sarum. The people 
deserted the soldiers for the priests, 
and by the 16th century, Old Sarum 
was a deserted ruin. 

The church of St. Mary, known 
the world over as the Salisbury 
Cathedral, subject of paintings by 
John Constable, was 38 years build- 
ing. The time was the 13th cen- 
tury, when Henry III was king. 
Somewhat severe inside, but re- 
garded as one of the finest ex- 
amples of English Gothic archi- 
tecture, the narrow, cruciform 
cathedral has the tallest spire in 
England. 

Standing atop a tower not en- 
gineered to support such a great 
weight, the 404-foot landmark has 
been a worry for 600 years. Re-

Many people think that the social security taxes they pay provide 
only for retirement income. This is only part of the story. There are 
now 1 *V| million survivors of deceased workers who are receiving month- 
ly benefit checks. Remember — social security taxes provide protection 

for both the worker and his dependents. 

*** 

Do you know that more than 5 \ , million persons are now receiving 
old-age and survivors insurance benefit checks each month? Yes, that’s 
right — 5' . million every month. These payments were paid for by the 
social security tax of workers and their employers and of self-employed 
persons who were covered by social security. Ho you know what pro- 
tection you are providing for you and your family’s future through 
social security payments? If you’re not sure, or if you have any ques- 
tion about the social security program, better consult your local social 
security oflice. It is located at 2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass. 

* *** 

In these uncertain times, the worker who is insured under social 
security can take comfort from the fact that a measure of financial 
security is guaranteed him and his dependents through the payment of 
his social security taxes. Let’s examine this protection more closely. 
First, there are retirement benefits for the insured person and his family 
when he retires at age 65. And second, in the event of his death, month- 
ly benefits are payable to his depentent children under 18, and their 
mother or, if his family is grown, to his widow when she reaches 65. 
A lump-sum death benefit is also payable to help with funeral expenses 
when he dies no matter at what age. For further information about 
social security payments consult your local social security oflice at 
2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass. 

*** 

Your social security account represents protection for you and your 
dependents in your old age and for your family in ease of your death. 
Consult your local social security office for details about this valuable 
insurance protection. Residents of Cambridge and vicinity should go 
to 2 Trowbridge street, Cambridge, Mass. 


pairmen have worked on it many 
times. In 1668, Sir Christopher 
Wren found it leaning almost two 
feet out of plumb. Even the rever- 
berations of the church organ have j 
caused fear for its stability. 

Following World War II, crafts- 
men in stone spent two years re- 
building the topmost 25 feet in a 
major renovation financed in part 
by American gifts. Two German 
fighter-bombers in 1942 almost 
saved them the effort. Swooping 
low on one of the few occasions 
Salisbury heard guns fired in 
anger, they narrowly missed run- 
ning into the spire in the low over- 
cast. Several homes and the city’s 
domestic gas holder were hit that 
day.

GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES 
AND BRIEFS 


The tomb of the Unknown Sol- 
dier in Arlington National Cem- 
etery has one of the largest single 
blocks of marble quarried in Amer- 
ica, says the National Geographic 
Society. It came from an almost 
solid mountain of marble in west- 
ern Colorado and was cut to size 
in Vermont. 


Few centipedes have as many as 
100 legs, says the National Geo 
graphic Society. The common 
house type has only 15 pairs; the 
garden variety, 21 pairs. Some 
species have as many as 200 legs. 


The blue whale is the world’s 
largest mammal, says the National 
Geographic Society. Some speci- 
mens exceed 100 feet in length and 
weigh as much as 115 tons. Ten 
men can stand upright in the 
mouth of a large blue whale. 


Canada is second only to South 
Africa in gold production, says the 
National Geographic Society. Gold 
is mined in all but two of Canada’s 
Provinces. 


In Africa there are only four 
independent countries not asso- 
ciated with colonial empires: 
Egypt, Ethiopio, Liberia, and 
Libya. 


Only one motor road crosses the 
180th meridian of longitude, the 
International Date Line. It lies on 
Taveuni Island in the Fijis. 


At arid Baku on the salty Cas- 
pian, sea water can be distilled at 
low cost because of plentiful oil 
heat. In most dry places, sea dis- 
tillation cost in prohibitive.

Spring and fall, for several 
years past the Boy Scouts have 
come to clean up the grounds at 
the Winchester Hospital. Last Sat- 
urday, with Mr. Francis MacFeeley, 
the Field Executive of the Fellsland 
Council, and Mr. A. T. Buros, Com- 
mitteeman from Pack 3, they came 
again, with rakes in hand. Mr. 
Ernest Fitzsimmons, in charge of 
Maintenance at the Hospital, super- 
vised the job and contributed his 
time to the undertaking which was 
not completed until 2 p. m. He was 
much pleased as he saw the truck 
loaded with leaves four times and 
driven off to the dump. 

The boys were industrious and 
seemed to he happy, doing a job for 
their community. They cleaned 
under the hedges, around the bush- 
es and over the lawns. They deserve 
credit for giving up their Satur- 
day to being good citizens. 

Mr. James Joslin is the Chair- 
man of the Winchester District of 
the Boy Scouts and the Hospital 
wishes to thank him and Mr. Mac- 
Feeley and Mr. Buros and Mr. Fitz-

to thank the 18 boys listed below.

NEW SERVICE AT SWANSON’S 


The silver Tea and Coffee Service 
is fast becoming an essential part 
of modern-day entertaining, re- 
ports Carl O Swanson of G59 Mass- 
achusetts avenue, Arlington. 

Years ago the family Tea Service 
or for afternoon tea”. Today Swan- 
son’s point out the silver Tea 
Service is an indispensable part of 
almost all forms of entertaining — 
Bridge, Teas, Dessert Entertaining, 
After-the-Party Snacks, Television 
Suppers,. Buffets, etc. 

There’s no need either, to think 
that one must purchase a complete 
7-pieee service all at once. “By 
building a service a piece-at-a-tim<?, 
women today can have at least a 
silver coffee pot for entertaining 
without breaking the family budg- 
et. That way, in a few months or 
years, a woman can acquire a com- 
plete silver Tea Service without 
straining the family finances.” 


WINCHESTER GARDEN CLUB 

The Winchester Garden Club met 
at the spacious home of Mrs. J. 
Edward Downes on Thursday. No- 
vember 19, the beauty of the house 
and grounds giving added pleasure 
to the afternons’s enjoyment. Des- 
sert was served by the hostess, as- 
sisted by her charming daughters- 
in-law, with Mrs. William W. Good- 
hue and Mrs. Angela W. Ghirardini 
at the coffee and ten urns, a beau- 
tiful arrangement of pink carna- 
tions and white chrysanthemums 
gracing the center of the table. 

Mrs. Samuel B. Kirkwood, Pres- 
ident, conducted the business meet- 
ing, after which a most delightful 
program was presented by Mrs. 
Norman M. Mitchell. Her subject, 
"Christmas Decorations for the 
Home”, was illustrated by many of 
her distinctive wreaths and sprays 
made of evergreens and pine cones, 
showing her skill in creating such 
beauty with the materials found in 
her own home in Maine. 

Her first treatment of decor- 
ations for Christmas gave sugges- 
tions for the outside door, using 
large wreaths or sprays, some of 
which were decorated with pine 
cones, gilded or plain, or clusters of 
Christmas tree halls, for impres- 
sive doorways, and smaller wreaths 
or sprays for less pretentious 
doors. This was followed by sug- 
gestions for decorating the living 
room, one arrangement of graceful 
sprays of juniper with pine cones 
j for the center of interest, in a soft 
green pottery container on a wood- 
j en stand. 

A beautiful head of a Madonna 
and Child, backed by sprays of 
juniper, with bayberry candles in 
hand-curved candle sticks on each 
side of the Madonna, created great 
interest, and another small stand- 
ing figure of a Madonna and angels 
against a pale blue background 
brought a mystic quality in con- 
trast to the brilliance of some of 
the other arrangements. 

Another appealing group reveal- 
ed some Christmas carolers stand- 
ing beside a lighted street lamp, 
with a white fence and evergreens 
in the background. 

In decorations for the dining 
table Mrs. Mitchell showed two 
contrasting arrangements, the first, 
using a plain red cloth, featured a 
simple massing of evergreens in the 
center, with a big red candle at 
each end and a fat Santa buck- 
up to each candle. The other ar- 
; rangement, for a formal dinner, 
used a soft green cloth with a cen- 
terpiece of gilded fruit, including a 
pineapple, pears, gourds, pecans in 
grapelike clusters, pine cones, limes 
in their natural color, and small 
green Christmas tree halls. This 
stunning arrangement was placed 
on a modern container of bent 
glass, and the place cards were 
gilded and decorated with tiny 
sprays. 

For the buffet Mrs. Mitchell 
showed a distinctive arrangement 
of three of her beautiful wreaths 
made entirely of pine cones, the 
large wreath in the center and a 
smaller one on each side, with can- 
dles inside the wreaths. For a 
simple decoration a massing of 
evergreens with two red pome- 
granates and a single candle in a 
red glass vigil lamp proved satis- 
fying, as well as the familiar 
plaque of the Bambino inside a pine 
cone wreath. Last of all, an ap- 
pealing figure of an angel with a 
lost lamb at its feet and a child 
looking adoringly at the angel, 
brought the true spirit of Christ- 
mas to all the members and their 
guests.

WINCHESTER 

HOME AND GARDEN CLUB 


On Wednesday afternoon, No- 
vember 18th, the Winchester Home 
and Garden Club held a most in- 
teresting meeting in the Art Room 
of the library. The Club’s own Mrs. 
Norman M. Mitchell was the speak- 
er, her subject being "Decorating 
for the Holidays.” By 2 p. m. there 
was standing room only, for this 
afternoon had been long awaited 
by the club members. Mrs. Mitchell 
told of the joy each Christmas sea- 
son of going into the woods and 
fields to gather the needed mate- 
rials for a truly traditional Christ- 
mas. She showed beautiful swags 
of different designs for the front 
door. A large wreath of fine cones 
in their various shadings was most 
enthusiastically received. For the 
inside of one’s home she showed 
several types of wreaths for over 
the mantle, all most interesting and 
beautiful. A handsome table ar- 
rangement of gilded fruit on a 
glass tray with touches of green 
for the limes and the green top 
of the gilded pineapple, was much 
appreciated. And of course it 
wouldn’t be Christmas without the 
nativity scenes. Mrs. Mitchell, as 
always, showed deep thought and 
sensitivity in her lovely arrange- 
ments of these. 

The meeting closed with a vote 
of gratitude to Mrs. Mitchell for 
her delightful presentation of holi- 
day decorating.

Field is an expert at display). 

You may be interested to know 
that the many orders for new de-

across the country, party due to a 
very successful summer shop in 
Ogunquit, Maine, and partly due 
to visitors to Winchester.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 
MEN S CLUB MEETING 

The speaker for the second meet- 
; ng of the Men’s Club, of the First 
i Congregational Church to be held 
Tuesday, December 1, will be Dr. 
John S. Badeau, President of the 
Near East Foundation, New York 
City. 

The title of Dr. Badeau’s talk will 
be "Watch The Middle East — 
World Danger Zone”. 

Dr. Badeau has just returned to 
this country from an extensive trip 
through the Near East where he 
has visited at length with the 
leaders of government and public 
life in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, 
and Greece. 

Dr. Badeau is one of the best in- 
formed Americans on affairs in the 
Near and Middle East. For the 
past seveh years he has been the 
President of the American Univer- 
sity at Cairo, Egypt, the lending 
educational institution of that 
strategic land. 

During the war Dr. Badeau was 
chief of the Middle Eastern Affairs 
division of the U. S. Office of War 
Information. 

Following graduation from Union 
College in 1924 ns an engineer, Dr. 
Badeau decided to turn to education 
and missionary work in the Near 
East. Accordingly, he gave up en- 
gineering to attend Union Theo- 
logical Seminary from which he re- 
ceived the Master’s degree in reli- 
gion and philosophy in 1928. From 
that time to the present his life has 
been spent in the Near East. He 
has taught in schools and colleges 
in Mesopotamia, Mosul, Bagdad, 
and Cairo. From 1938-1942 he was 
Dean of the Faculty of the Amer- 
ican University at Cairo. 

Dr. Badeau is the author of two 
recent studies on the Near East 
published by the Foreign Policy 
Association. One is entitled "East 
and West of Suez”. The other is 
"Modern Egypt. 

Our guest is no stranger to Win 
Chester, having spoken to the an- 
nual meeting of the College Club 
two years ago. He is one of the 
most dynamic speakers on world 
affairs and is in heavy demand 
among American colleges and For- 
eign Policy Association gatherings. 
This should he one of the year’s 
most worthwhile evenings. 

The meeting will start with sup- 
per at G:30 p. m. 

Following supper there will be a 
program of music by Miss Dorothy 
E. Brandt and the Male Chorus of 
the Senior Choir. The music pro- 
gram will be under the direction of 
Mr. Albert O. Wilson.

"THE IMPORTANCE 
OF BEING EARNEST" 

A comedy of manners by Oscar 
Wilde was presented by the Parish 
Players of the First Congregation- 
al Church under the direction of 
Harlan F. Grant November ID, 20 
and 21 in the Little Theatre Be- 
neath a Spire, with the following 
cast: 

John Worthing, Jr. — William 
Bohnort 

Algernon Moncrieff — George S. 
Hcbb, Jr. 

Rev. Canon Chasuble, I). D. — 
Thomas A. Morse 

Morriman — Fred Skerry 

Lane — Robert H. Dickson 

Lady Bracknell — Jacqueline Hall 
Sibley 

Hon. Gwendolyn Fairfax — Con- 
nie B. Hessler 

Cecily Cardew — Becky Smith 

Miss Prism — Marian T. Blake 

In selecting Oscar Wilde’s “The 
Importance of Being Earnest” for 
their opening play of the season, 
the Parish Players undertook a dif- 
ficult assignment, for a comedy of 
manners such as this, with its 
graceful foolery, demands from 
both director and cast an under- 
standing of an ago in which “style” 
above all else was an essential for 
those accepted as “society.” 

Does not Wilde accurately place 
his pen on the weakness of his time 
when he has Gwendolyn say, “In 
matters of grave importance, style, 
not sincerity, is the vital thing”? 
It is greatly to the credit of Mr. 
Grant that he was able to impart 
to the cast an appreciation of the 
graceful farce demanded, and to 
the cast that they were able to 
grasp and project the playfulness 
that is the essence of Wilde’s com- 
mentary on frivolous society. 

The humor of this play is like a 
bubble which the characters lightly 
and with exaggerated gestures toss 
back and forth until it is suddenly 
and daintily pricked with an epi- 
gram or a quip that showers drop- 
lets of mirth over the audience. 
The lightness, the quickness so 
much required by a comedy of 
manners was achieved to a pleasing 
degree by the very competent east 
selected for this production. 

The story of “The Importance of 
Being Earnest” is too well known 
to bear extended repeating here, but 
the highly improbable situation 
which finds two young men seeking 
to be re-christened Earnest in order 
to capture the affections of two very 
desirable young ladies, only to find 
that they are brothers and accept- 
able to their sweethearts despite 
their names, provided a most en- 
joyable evening. 

As John Worthing, a newcomer 
to the Parish Players, William 
Bohnort gave an excellent perform- 
ance. His expressive use of his 
hands, his facial reactions, his very 
graceful bodily movements set the 
key for the entire play. He took full 
advantage of every opportunity 
given him by the playwright to 
strike an attitude or to convey the 
superficiality of his quick wit. 

George Hebb, as Algernon Mon- 
crieff, showed that he has made 
great strides in his technique since 
his first appearance on the Players’ 
stage. His boyishness, his evident 
enjoyment of the part he was play- 
ing came across nicely to the audi- 
ence. He was strong where he 
needed to be strong, and he was 
truly the love-sick youth when in 
the presence of his Cecily. He 
pointed his lines neatly and moved 
about the stage with plenty of as- 
surance. It was his best perform- 
ance to date and one well calculated 
to give him confidence in any fu- 
ture portrayals. 

In full possession of the stage 
whenever she appeared was Jac- 
queline Sibley as a typical Oscar 
Wilde dowager, Lady Bracknell. 
How she dripped scorn, how biting 
was her sarcasm, how calculating 
her assay of the suitors, how im- 
pressive her bearing. Here is an 
actress of accomplishment who did 
Wilde’s didactic talk proud. If a 
reviewer is to give his judgment, 
for what it is worth, the laurel 
must be handed Mrs. Sibley for 
the outstanding performance of 
the show. 


As Gwendolyn, Connie Hessler 
caught the mood of artificiality in 
both gesture nnd inflection. Her’s 
was a studied performance in which 
she did not for an instant let 
down in character. Like Mr. Hcbb, 
her portrayal of the part showed 
thnt she has made steady progress 
as an actress. 

There may have been more beau- 
tiful girls on the Players’ stage in 
the past but, if so, this reviewer 
has missed them. Becky Smith, as 
Cecily, was lovely enough to make 
any man’s heart heat fnster, wheth- 
er in Wilde’s time or today. Her’s 
was a most appealing performance 
and we trust thnt Parish Players’ 
audiences will see her more and 
more in the plays to come. 

Marian Blake was a perfect Miss 
Prism. Her fluttery uncertainty, 
her demure advances to Rev. Chau- 
sable, her spinstcrish coquetry 
when her advances were encourag- 
ed, and her pleasure when her bag 
was restored to her were a joy to 
watch. That bag! Years ago she 
had left it in a railway station, for- 
getting thnt it contained a baby. 
Now she has it back and all she 
can say is, “It has been a great 
inconvenience being without it all 
these years.” A priceless line as 
Mrs. Blake gave it! 

Thomas Morse’s Rev. Chnusable 
was an excellent character job. 
Sententious, quite horrified nt the 
worldliness of the young people, 
lie brought the house down when 
he snid, “Were I fortunate enough 
to be Miss Prism’s pupil, I would 
hang upon her lips,” and followed 
it up with a nicely restrained com- 
ic horror when he realized what he 
had uttered. 

Let us not forget those two mod- 
el gentlemen’s gentlemen, Fred 
Skerry and Robert Dickson. This 
reviewer got the distinct impres- 
sion that they were quite conde- 
scending to their respective “Sirs,” 
neatly conveyed by a projection of 
thought. A tribute to art in small 
parts. 

Lest this review be considered 
too glowing, admittedly there were 
faults as there are in any amateur 
production. But in the final analy- 
sis, the answer as to how good a 
play is rests with the audience. The 
audience obviously enjoyed it. Er- j 
go, it was a good play. 

A word of tribute to the two sots: 
colorful, dramatic, they provided a 
perfect backdrop for the mood of 
the play.

HIGH SCHOOL CAST PRESENTS 
"THE FORTUNE TELLER" 

With the opening performance of 
the operetta, “The Fortune Teller”, 
°nly one week away, enthusiasm 
and interest have reached a peak 
unong the students of Winchester 
High School nnd all their friends, 
»s a carefully selected group of 
thirteen principals, supported by n 
well-balanced cast of over sixty, 
work hard toward the perfection of 
their presentation of one of the 
most popular of all light operettas. 

Choruses featuring the Royal 
Hussars, the Grand Opera Ballet, 
and a hand of gypsies combine to 
add color and variety to the witty 
dialogue of the story. Interest in 
the ballet numbers has grown with 
the announcement that the group of 
talented girls in this feature have 
originated their own dances under 
the direction of Barbara Hottel of 
the sophomore class. With careful 
attention to details of professional 
make-up, to special scenery, and to 
colorful character costuming, the 
performance promises to equal, if 
not to surpass, the production four 
years ago by the same groups of 
“II. M. S. Pinafore.” 

For those who may not he fa- 
miliar with the story, a brief sum- 
mary might add to their enjoy- 
ment, next Friday and Saturday 
evenings. 

As the story opens in Act One, 
Count Berezowski, Commandant of 
the Secret Police in Livonia, has in- 
vited the Grand Opera Ballet to a 
garden party at his chateau. HU 
purpose is to locate a Royal Lot- 
tery ticket which he believes to he 
in the possession of one of the girls. 
This ticket belongs to King Gustaf, 
who is to win the grand prize in 
the lottery drawing the following 
day, so the Count must recover it 
or face the King’s extreme dis- 
pleasure. Aided by Fresco, the 
Ballet Master, he discovers that 
Irma has the ticket. She refuses 
to yield it to him, so to obtain it 
the Count plans to marry her. Irma 
is in love with Captain Ladislaus 
of the Livonian Hussars; however, 
her twin brother Fedor has appar- 
ently deserted the army, and to save 
him from the army and from a fir- 


ing squad Irma consents to marry 
the Count. 

It occurs to her that she might 
save Fedor while at the same time 
avoiding the unpleasant marriage 
to the Count if she disguises her* 
self in one of Fedor’s uniforms and 
replaces him at the palace. She 
leaves the lottery ticket for the 
Count, but it falls into the hands 
of her admirer, Ladislaus, who 
holds it as a trump card over the 
Count. 

A hand of gypsies arrives. Lad- 
islaus buys the gypsy fortune teller, 
Musette, from her parents, intend- 
ing to substitute her for Irma at 
the Count’s wedding. Fresco, who 
is trying to salvage a bribe from 
the count, helps him by breaking 
the Count’s monocle. Practically 
blind, the Count is taken in by the 
subterfuge, and the first act closes 
with the prospect of his marriage 
to the gypsy girl. 

In Act Two the gypsies return 
to steal Musette, but she has decid- 
ed she prefers to become a Coun- 
tess and sends them away. San- 
dor, her gypsy lover, pleads with 
her to return to him. 

The Count discovers the plot to 
marry him off to the wrong girl, 
and insists that Irma keep her 
promise to marry him. As the lot- 
tery ticket has been stolen from 
Ladislaus, it appears that she must 
go through with the marriage to 
save her brother’s life. 

The final solution of the com- 
plications brings the story to a 
happy ending, one satisfying to 
both the players and the audience.

THE FORTNIGHTLY 


PROMOTION FOR CHATFIELD 


Mr. George I. Chatfield of Larch- 
mont, N. Y., has been appointed 
Executive Vice-President of the 
William Esty Company, Inc., Ad- 
vertising Agency of New York. 

Mr. Chatfield is a graduate of 
M. I. T. and is Secretary of the 
1928 class. He lived on Alben 
street in Winchester, for 12 years 
and was a former member of Lever 
Brothers Company Advertising De- 
partment, Cambridge, where he 
was Advertising Manager of Rinso 
and Lifebuoy before going into the 
advertising agency business in 1947. 


Irene K. Thresher, representa- 
tive in the General Court from 
Newton, was the speaker at the 
last meeting of the Winchester Wo- 
men’s Republican Club held in the 
Baptist Social Hall on Wednesday, 
November 18. Mrs. Robert Wood 
Reynolds, president of the club, 
conducted the business meeting, 
and the speaker was introduced by 
Mrs. Rowland V. Patrick, chair- 
man of education. 

Mrs. Thresher is one of seven 
women in our legislature, which is 
a small number in comparison with 
the number of women serving in 
the legislatures of many other 
states. With this in mind, the 
speaker paid tribute to women in 
government, pointing out that un- 
like men who frequently enter poli- 
tics for personal gains, women usu- 
ally seek election because they have 
I ideals they are fighting for and 
! causes they wish to sponsor and 
j improve. 

j Mrs. Thresher urged her audi- 
| ence to familiarize themselves with 
] our legislative procedure. “Come 
: and see us spend the tax dollar,” 
she invited. She paid tribute to the 
“Right of Petition” we have in 
Massachusetts whereby anyone can 
file a bill and which entitles every 
piece of legislation to a thorough 
hearing. Three to four thousand 
bills are reported out each year. 

Particularly interesting was the 
speaker’s report of her work on 
special committees. As a member 
of the committee on education, re- 
lating to all bills in education on 
the state level, she pointed out that 
recently has been passed the 
long-sought law providing for the 
certification of teachers. Of great 
importance also has been the pass- 
j age of the Married Women Teach- 
! ers Act, whereby marriage is no 
I longer a cause for dismissal. Prog- 
j ress is being made in educational 
television with a grant forthcoming 
from the Ford Foundation and the 
Lowell Institute to he advising the 
proposed station. 

As a member of the Public Wel- 
fare Commission Mrs. Thresher re- 
ported that she has visited widely 
our mental health institutions, find- 
ing them by and large satisfactory. 
However more intelligent social 
planning is necessary for the ag- 
ing, and industry should not arbi- 
trarily retire people at 65, she felt. 

In our penal institutions, she re- 
gretted, we are doing the poorest 
job. There are too many repeaters 
in our reformatories and prisons. 
We are not rehabilitating people. 
A successful experiment is going 
forward, she said, at the prison 
camp in Miles Standish Forest in 
Plymouth, where a picked group 
of trusties are working together 
under minimum security restric- 
tions and living healthy, construc- 
tive lives. 

A social hour concluded the af- 
ternoon. Tea was served by Mrs. 
Wilfred McKenzie and her commit- 
tee. Mrs. William I. Palmer and 
Mrs. Ralnh Bonnell poured.

In spite of inclement weather, 
The Fortnightly “American Home 
and Conservation” all-day meeting 
was well attended and proved to he 
a most enjoyable and instructive 
day. 

Miss Helen Niedringhaus, Amer- 
ican Home chairman, opened the 
morning session at 10:30 a. m. by 
introducing Mr. Leslie Browning, 
of S. S. Fierce Company, whose 
subject, “Food is Fun,” gave mem- 
bers many new and unusual ideas 
for the holiday season to make 
intertaining easy and food attract- 
ive. A1 enjoyed sampling some of 
Mr. Browning’s creations following 
his program. 

During a social hour, the “Snack 
Bar,” under the chairmanship of 
Mrs. George French and Mrs. 
Kingman Cass, was most popular 
and the food delicious. 

After a short business meeting 
with the president, Mrs. Sidney A. 
Burr, in the chair, Mrs. Lora Bond 
Rhodes, Conservation chairman, 
presented Mr. Lynch of the State 
Conservation Commission, who 
showed an interesting sound film 
on “Trees of the Future.” Mem- 
bers were shown exactly what this 
committee is doing to protect our 
forests and what we can do as in- 
dividuals. It was stressed as to 
what vital material timber is and 
its many uses; also, what a large 
part Massachusetts plays in the 
production of timber.

Education Committee 

Thirty-two members of the Edu- 
cation Committee und guests met 
Thursday, November 19th, at the 
home of Mrs. Frank B. McCullough, 
chairman, and enjoyed a fine pro- 
gram followed by morning coffee 
with the president, Mrs. Sidney A. 
Buir, pouring. 

The speaker, Miss Corinne Mead, 
shared with us her impressions of 
the many historic and interesting 
places visited on a motor trip to 
the West Coast. Among those men- 
tioned were Lincoln’s home in 
Springfield, Illinois, and his burial 
place, where it was found that the 
impressive granite in the rotunda 
came from Quincy, Mass. She also 
visited New Salem, where Lincoln 
first started his law practice. She 
stopped at the home of Mark Twain 
in Hannibal, Mo., and traveled 
through Kansas, where the heat 
was unbearable, to Denver, where 
the snow-capped mountains offered 
some relief. Salt Lake City was 
“out of this world,” Miss Mead 
felt, hut the highlight of the trip 
was the Grand Tetons of Wyoming 
and the little pioneer town, Jack- 
son Hole, where she and her party 
were so impressed they stayed con- 
siderably longer than they intend- 
ed and had to complete the trip 
east with few stops.

SONS OF ITALY 
HONOR SOFTBALL TEAM 


PARK DEPARTMENT TROPHY 
RETIRED BY SONS 


Last Saturday evening, some 
fifty members, guests and friends 
gathered at the S. O. I. Club-house 
on Swanton street to pay tribute to 
the club’s softball team, which this 
year won the Town Softball League 
for the third time, taking the title 
from the Veterans of Foreign 
Wars. 

The “Sons” have been contenders 
or titlists in the league ever since 
its beginning and have been one of 
the most colorful teams to perform 
on the circuit, always giving a good 
account of themselves both at hat 
and in the field. Their series with 
the Vets this fall was one of the 
best in recent years, the first game 
being an extra inning affair with 
the Sons coming out on top by a 
score of 2-1, and going on to win 
the series in the fourth and decid- 
ing game. Their overall record for 
the season was 24 wins as against 
only four defeats. 

At the head table last Saturday 
were Venerable Dominic Provin- 
zano; Carmine Frongillo, master of 
ceremonies; Edward A. Bartlett, 
Director of the Town Softball 
League; Paul Connors, popular 
manager of the V. F. W. team; and 
Frank Procopio, manager of the 
S. O. I. team. Mr. John Volpe, 
Commissioner of Public Works, and 
Venerable of the Lodge when the 
Sons put their first team on the 
field was unable to he present. 

Mr. Frongillo introduced Vener- 
able Dominic Provinzano who wel- 
comed the members and guests, and 
Congratulated the team on behalf 
of the Lodge.

me explain why. "Deadhorso” is at 
the stage where ho forgets to leave 
the plumbing supplies out of his 
pockets. “Larry” father of twins 
recently, done for at least five years 
as a bowler. “Arka” I don’t know 
what’s happened to him except to 
say he hasn’t been able to hit 
“Noah’s Ark” recently let alone 
the pins. “Pete”, if he doesn’t let 
the hall go soon enough one of 
these nights he’s going to kill him- 
self. “Goldy-Locks Raffle Randy”, 
they say he’s a howler, hut where 
has he been? It can’t he that he’s 
trying to protect his average! 
“Mike”, the black curly hnired lover 
who can howl 300 one week and 
drop to 220 the next. There’s your 
explanation! 

One of our new hoys won the 
married man’s increased allowance 
raffle, D. Suppa of Notre Dame. 

Whispers heard around the alley. 
Can LaTorelln bowl without a 
cigar? Lentine to step up the 
speed of his hall. 

Is young Ginealone being coached 
by his brother, the “Jeep”? Ma- 
gano is slipping. Has 45 degrees 
“Pibby” Tofuri shaved off his eye- 
brows so the hair won’t interfere 
with his eyesight? Will the man

Local residents and business 
firms alike were reminded by the 
postmaster, “Correct and careful 
mailing is just as important as 
early mailing. Perhaps more so. 
Any unnecessary delay may pre 
vent delivery of your Christmnt 
cards and gifts by December 25.*' 
Postmaster Thomas J. Gilgun 
lists haste and carelessness as chief 
trouble makers for postal employ- 
ees, and quickly adds: 

“There’s no good reason for ei- 


in w If Stft 

packages are mailed by December 
5, and all Christmas cards by De- 
cember 15, they’ll arrive shortly 
before Santa. . 

Business firms can do their part 
by withholding all circular and 
catalogue mail during the critical 
period, December 15-26. It will help 
avoid post office congestion if their 
regular correspondence is posted 
before 4:00 p. m. each day.

“Winchester Post No. 97 of the

contribution to National Head- 
quarters in Indianapolis for the 
Wooden Church Crusade,” Com- 
mander Joseph McKee said to-day. j 

We urge others who believe as 
we do, that religion is a powerful 
ally in our fight against godless 
Communism, to contribute to this 
worthy cause. Anyone desiring to 
help God’s work in Western Ger- 
many may send a contribution to 
our post, which will be forwarded 
to Indianapolis. 

“The Church is the bulwark of 
human freedom. The people of 
Western Germany arc inherently 
religious. By helping them to re- 
build their places of worship, we 
will provide an effective answer to 
the Anti - American propaganda 
spread by Communists.”

SCHOOL ATTEfiDAHCF POUCY 

The policy of the Winchester 
.School Committee with regard to 
school attendance during inclement 
weather was stated last year in a 
notice sent to the parents of all 
school children. In order to re- 
acquaint townspeople with this 
policy the following statement is 
reprinted. 

To All Patrons: 

In order to prevent any misun- 
derstandings, and to assure our 
patrons of our desire to do the best 
thing for individual pupils and the 
school system ns a whole, the 
School Committee desires to state 
publicly its policy concerning school 
attendance. 

1. The School Committee is in 
terested in the safety and health of 
the children as well ns in their 
regular, well-planned instruction. 

2. The schools will he kept open 
every day possible. In case of un- 
usually severe weather or travel 
conditions, the Superintendent may, 
at his discretion, close the schools. 

H. There are many competent ob- 
servers who believe that the safety 
of our children is greater when they 
are in school than when they arc 
not. However, the schools may be 
open on days when the parent feels 
it inadvisable to send the child for 
reasons of health or safety. On 
such days, the parent should decide 
what he thinks is for the best in- 
terest of the child. 

4. Sometimes, the weather may 


improve to such an extent soon 
lifter the opening of school that 
the pupil can reach school safely 
and without danger to his health. 
Although he may he tardy, the 
parent should send him with a note 
to school explaining the tardiness. 

5. When a large percentage of 
pupils is absent, the teachers will 
not take up any new work. In any 
enso, every efTort will be made to 
help pupils make up the work that 
has been missed. 

0. Whenever absent from school 
for any reason, the pupil must pre- 
sent a note from the parent on his 
return to school explaining such 
absence, 

Xo School Signals: 2-2 repeated 
four times. 

At 7:20 a. m. — No school for any 
^f the pupils in any of the public 
schools in town. 

At 12:10 p. m.— No afternoon scs- 
ion for the Elementary schools. 

Xo school announcements will 
also be broadcast over the follow- 
ing radio stations between 7:00 and 
7:30 a. m.: WEE1, WBZ, WXAC, 
WCOr, WLAW, and WHDH.

BLOOD DONOR DAY 

The Red Cross Rloodmobile 
comes to the First Congregational 
Church on Monday, December 14, 
for its quarterly visit. 

Blood is still needed for the army 
and navy hospitals overseas as well 
ns at home. To this date nothing 
has been discovered to take the 
place of whole blood. 

A thorough examination is given 
to each prospective donor, and no 
one may give who is not “fit”. The 
age limits are 18-50 years. 

Winchester’s quota is a minimum 
of 150 pints. Remember the day, 
December 14, and call Winchester 
G-2300 for an appointment.

ASST. POSTMASTER RESIGNED 

MARTIN OVER 10 YEARS 
IN SERVICE 

Edward J. Martin, assistant post- 
master of the Winchester Post Of- 
fice, resigned at the conclusion of 
work last Saturday night, his res- 
ignation to take effect December 1. 
the step was prompted by the fact 
that in recent years Mr. Martin 
has not been in robust health. 

He entered the service May 22. 
1913, when he was appointed a sub- 
stitute deri by the then postmas- 
ter, J. Winslow Richardson. He was 
appointed a regular clerk in the 
money order section December 17, 
ID 17, and was promoted to superin- 
tendent of mails by the then post- 
master, Vincent C. Ambrose, Feb- 
ruary 1, 1942. He was appointed 
assistant postmaster by Postmas- 
ter Thomas J. Gilgun September 1, 
1949. 

Mr. Martin served under seven 
! postmasters, from J. Winslow Rich- 
i ardson to the present incumbent, 
including James H. Ronche, Pat- 
rick E. Fitzgerald, John F. O’Con- 
no. , George H. Loch man and Vin- 
cent C. Ambrose. He also served 
under Assistant Postmaster Ernest 
I W. Hatch during the time Mr. 
Hatch was acting postmaster. At 
the time of his resignation he had 
served forty years and six months, 
and was widely known to patrons 
of t’ e loc*;l o Ti *c, bv whom he was 
held in high esteem,, his courtesy, 
p casun ■ 1 and cffi< 

making him popular with all. 

Mr. Martin lives with his wife 
at 32 Sheridan Circle, just over the 
line from h ; s birthplace on Border 
street in Woburn. He has lived in 
Winchester since 1990 and was 
graduated from Winchester High 
School in 1911. Before entering the 
postal service he was employed at 
! the old Ames store. 

His many friends wish for Mr. 
Martin many years in which to 
t njoy the fruits of a well earned 
leisure.

C. C. PETER 



W. H. S. BASKETBALL 

The Winchester High School bas- 
ketball squad commenced practice* 
this week in preparation for a rug- j 
ged court campaign this winter. 
Poach Ted Bartlett has only two 
lettermen available as he strives 
to build a fourth consecutive Mid- 
dlesex League champion. The two | 
veterans arc Go-Captains Joe Di- 
lorio and Dave Pratt, with Dilorio 
being a starter over the last half 
of the season a year ago and Pratt 
a valuable substitute. 

The Indians do not have the tre- 
mendous height that they have en- 
joyed over the past three successful 
seasons hut hope to compensate for 
it with greater speed and aggress- 
iveness. No starting team has been 
put together as yet but the quintet 
seen most frequently working to- 
gether consists of Dilorio and 
Charlie Stevens at forward, Jim 
Wright at center, and Buddy Mc- 
Kinley and Lou Farrell at guard. 
Members of the football squad who 
reported late and are slowly round- 
ing into condition to make strong 
bids for varsity positions are Piatt, 
Paul O’Brien, and Joe Bcllino. Oth- 
er members of the football squad 
who how considerable promise are 
Bill Ross, Pete Gove, Nils Nelson, 
and Frank Dattilo. Goaeh Bartlett 
is very high on the work of two 
sophomores, John Lynch and Bert 
Kneeland, and feels that they are 
excellent prospects. 

Because of their lack of height 
this season the Indians are stress- 
ing greater speed and mobility and 
surer ball handling to make that 
first shot at the basket a good one. 
No longer can they depend upon 
getting many baskets on rebounds 
hut must concentrate on working 
ih<* ball to get a better shot at the 
hoop. Their offense has been adapt- 
ed to meet this change and they 
should he an interesting team to 
watch in action as they set up their 
plays for a clear break to the bas- 
ket. The word is out to watch Lex- 
ington and Wakefield in the Mid- 
dlesex League this year but do not 
sell the Bartlcttmen short. 

Winchester opens its home sched- 
ule a week from tonight when they 
entertain Arlington High School 
at the high school gym. This is a 
rugged opener for the Sachems as 
Arlington is a Class A quintet that 
has enjoyed great success over the 
past two years winning the Subur- 
ban League championship and go- 
ing to the Tech Tournament both 
years. It will he a stern test for 
the locals and one that will provide 
an excellent barometer of their suc- 
cess this coming winter.

Weeks of rehearsal come to an 
end tonight, when music and dra- 
matic students at the high school 
present their production of Victor 
Herbert’s “The Fortune Teller” in 
the high school auditorium. An- 
other performance is scheduled for 
Saturday evening. The principals, 
chorus, and dancers, who make up 
the cast of 90, have worked long 
and faithfully under the direction 
of Miss Eleanor Anifantis and Mr. 
Thomas Morse; and it is their fond 
hope that the show will surpass the 
excellent production of “II. M. S.

WINCHESTER, 39; WOBURN, 13 

SPIRITED TANNERS MADE 
GAME OF FIRST HALF 

Winchester beat its traditional 
rival Woburn, .'10 to 13, on Thanks- 
giving Day at Manchester Field be- 
fore a huge crowd thnt must have 
reached 8,000 and that many be- 
lieved was considerably larger. The 
six thousand seats in the enlarged 
grandstand were jammed and 
I crowds surged to the very edge of 
(he gridiron in both end zones with 
the bankings behind the Woburn 
, stands and at the junior high school 
being black with people. Bright 
sunshine after the heavy storm of 
Wednesday got the crowd out for 
the classic, and the field was in 
surprisingly good shape considering 
the heavy rains of Monday and 
Wednesday. 

The big crowd saw a good hall- 
game for the first half, underdog 
Woburn offering spirited opposition 
to heavily favored Winchester and 
actually controlling play most of 
the time before half time except 
for the Indians’ two early game 
scoring drives. 

Perhaps Winchester got those 
two touchdowns too easily and let 
down. At all events the Indians 
lacked fire as the game wore along 
and never did approach tho form 
they showed at Wakefield. 

Winchester made 15 first downs 
to 11 for Woburn, rushing for 344 
yards to 136 for the Tanners. Win- 
chester completed four of 6 passes 
for 104 yards, having one inter- 
cepted; while Woburn threw 11 
passes, completing five for 50 
yards. Winchester fumbled twice 
and Woburn four times, but the 
Tanners recovered three times 
while Winchester lost the ball each 
time. Winchester lost 45 yards to 
the officials while the Orange did 
not draw a penalty. Castiglione 
averaged 37% yards in two kicks 
while Rcllino booted his only punt 
43 yards in the air. 

Rotondi kicked off for Winches-

Of course, any day is a wonder ful day for stepping up 
to Cadillac. 

When the magic moment arrives in a man’s life 
when he feels entitled to the “car of cars,” he should 
make the move without hesitation — regardless of 
year, or season, or any other consideration. 

But we do feel, in all honesty, that the motorist 
who finds himself in that happy circumstance this 
fall is particularly fortunate. 

Lor Cadillac has never offered so many wonderful 
things, in such abundant measure, as it does today. 

It is supremely beautiful— with grace and dignity 
and majesty that set it instantly apart from the rest 
of the world’s motor cars. 

Its performance is simply breath-taking— even 
when measured against Cadillac’s own extraordinary 
standards. And the car is luxurious and distinctive and 


pride-inspiring far beyond its illustrious predecessors. 

In addition to all this, the current Cadillac creation 
is unbelievably practical to own and economical to 
operate. The lowest-priced Cadillac, for instance, now 
costs less than twenty-two different models of other 
makes of motor cars manufactured in America. 

And you can ride out a normal, full day’s journey 
on a single tankful of gasoline. 

As if this were not sufficient to set it apart, a 
Cadillac car — according to an authoritative study of 
used car prices— may be expected to return a greater 
percentage of its owner’s original investment at the 
time of resale than any other motor car in the land! 

So— if you are considering a Cadillac for yourself 
and your family — come in and order one today! 

It’s the right thing to do— and it’s the right time to 
do it.

tor and Castiglione was dropped on 
the Woburn 29. The Orange could- 
n’t go, and Castiglione kicked to 
Bellino who got back 20 yards to 
the Winchester 43. 

On the very first play the Indians 
fumbled and Romano recovered for 
Woburn. The Tanners then racked 
up the game’s initial first down. 
Tancredi setting it up with a five 
yard »»fT tackle jaunt and Castigli- 
one plunging the last two yards to 
the Winchester 30. 

With the Woburn stands in an 1 
uproar and the Winchester fans i 
wondering whether this was to be 
another Woburn day, the Tanners! 
tried a reverse and Allen was drop- 
ped for no gain by Pratt who came 
up fast to make the tackle. Then a j 
backlield mixup in assignments re- 1 
suited in a Tanner fumble which 
the bulky Mr. Cullen pounced upon 
at the Winchester 31. 

Then Winchester started. Bellino 
picked up 3 and Murphy bucked to 
the 40. Bellino made first down 
at the Woburn 45 and Haggerty 
added a yard on a reverse. Bellino 
took a pitchout and aided by a nice 
block by Murphy scampered to a 
first down at Tanner 21. 

Haggerty was stopped by Brown 
with only a yard, but Murphy real- 
ly barrelled through to a first down 
at the five. The left side of the 
Woburn line dropped Bellino back 
on the eight as an Orange cheer 
went up, but big Mike Murphy 
bulled his way to the one and then 
on a veer-buck left drove over for 
the first touchdown of the game. 
Rotondi, with a record of nine 
traight conversions from place- 
ment, missed the extra point. 

Castiglione ran the ensuing kick- 
off all the way to his 42 yard line, 
and then personally carried and 
passed Woburn to the Winchester 
26, his five yard heave to Rosa 
making first down at the Winches- 
ter 31. 

Castiglione bucked to the 25 as 
the first quarter ended and then 
picked up two yards to the Win- 
chester 23. On fourth with two 
yards needed Joe tried for the first 
down through the line hut was 
stopped in his tracks, Winchester 
taking over at its 23. 

Once again Winchester started, 
Rellino taking a pitchout, and aided 
by a Murphy block, reaching the 
Winchester 40 for a first town. 
Bellino picked up another ten 
across the field but a clipping pen- 
alty nullified this advance and put 
the ball hack at the Winchester 34. 

Rig Murphy broke through to the 
Woburn 44 for first down, and Pratt 
sneaked for nine, Haggerty re- 
versing for the first down at the 
Woburn 22. 

Pratt then hit Paul O’Brien with 
a pass on the Tanner four and on 
the next play Bellino knifed over

off tackle going into the end zone 
standing up. Pratt arched a pretty 
soft pass to Bellino for the extra 
point. 

Woburn was far from discourag- 
ed and Castiglione brought the 
Orange rooters to their feet as he 
carried the kickoff out to the Win- 
chester 44, getting past every one 
but Bellino, whose pretty last ditch 
tackle saved a probable touchdown. 

Two passes fell incomplete be- 
fore Castiglione barged off tackle 
for eight, and then made a first 
down at the Indians’ 34. 

Brenden Allen on a reverse got 
past the Winchester right flank and 
streaked to the Winchester ten 
where another fine tackle by Bel- 
lino postponed the touchdown. 

The Tanners were really fired up 
at this point. Tancredi whirled off

tackle for four and Castiglione 
bucked to the three. On the next 
play Castiglione slanted over, but 
his attempt for the extra point 
from placement was wide. 

Neither team got anywhere in 
the remaining minutes of the half, 
Romano’s interception of a Win- 
chester pass stopping the Indians 
while the Indians’ defense proved 
too stout for the battling Tanners. 

Woburn might have knotted the 
count in the waning moments on 
a long pass thrown by Tancredi, 
had the receiver been able to reach 
the ball. He had gotten by Win- 
chester’s defenders and into the 
clear but Tancredi ’s heave was just 
a bit too long to be covered. 

Haggerty ran the second half 
kickofT out to the Winchester 39 
and Murphy and Haggerty made it 
first down on the Orange side of 
midfield. Dan Mantini saved the 
scoring march when he recovered a 
deep reverse fumble back at the 
Winchester 44, and Bellino started 
things again with a slash to the 
Woburn 41. 

Murphy busted through for a first 
down at the 36 and Haggerty re- 
versed for another at the 24. Bel- 
lino swept to the 15 and O’Brien 
on an end around reached the 12. 

Murphy bulled through to the 6, 
and then, with fourth and four, 
what looked like a quarterback 
sweep right developed into a pretty 
pass by Pratt into the end zone 
where O’Brien gathered in the 
leather for the touchdown. Roton- 
di failed to kick in the extra point. 

For the remainder of the quarter 
neither team was able to go con- 
sistently, but shortly after the 
teams changed goals the Indians 
stopped the Tanners at their 32. 
Bellino made a first down but the 
Indians were called for ofTsidc and 
the ball went back to their 27. 

Murphy broke through to the 
Winchester 46, and after Bellino 
was stopped for a yard loss, bulled 
through again to the Tanner's 47. 
Dattilo was hurt on the play and 
had to be replaced by Nils Nelson. 

Murphy again cracked the sag- 
ging Tanner line for a first down 
at the Woburn 30 where the often 
fickle goddess of luck smiled her 
sweetest on the Indians. 

On first down Pratt faded and 
arched a long touchdown pass down 
field to the sprinting Bellino. Joe 
got into position to grab the 
leather, but another Joe, Woburn’s 
Castiglione, got to it first and for a 
split second it looked like he would 
intercept cleanly. 

He did get his hands on the pig 
skin, but he couldn’t hold it, and as 
he whirled away from Bellino the 
ball squirted from bis arms into 
Bellino’s eager paws at the Woburn 
two. The Winchester back merely 
had to turn and hop into the end 
zone to add six points to the Win- 
chester* total as deep gloom des- 
cended over the Orange stands. 

Coach Knowlton was a bit slow 
| getting in a replacement before the 
try for the extra point and Captain 
Riordan bad to kick from five yards 
further hack because of the infrac- 
tion. His kick was no good. 

Winchester kicked short and 
while the Tanner’s stood around 
watching Bill Jesdale, reverse 
| guard, recovered the free ball for 


the Indians at the Woburn 37. On 
first down Lindsey went ofT tackle 
to the left in a fine burst of speed, 
whirled through the Tanner de- 
fenders all the way into the end 
zone for tht prettiest running play 
of the game. 

This time Big Johnny Riordan 
split the uprights with a perfect 
conversion and Winchester led, 32- 
6. Captain Romano grabbed the 
kickofT and scooted through every 
one on the Winchester team into the 
clear, being finally brought down on 
a nice tackle by Lindsey at the mid- 
field stripe with a clear field ahead. 

Coach Knowlton had a lineup of 
second stringers and All Americas 
on the field and Woburn showed its 
appreciation by going all the way. 
Passes from Castiglione to Brown 
made first downs at the Winchester 
34 and 20 and Castiglione bucked 
to the 13. 

Tancredi went ofT tackle and 
drove to the 2, where Castiglione 
recovered a fumble for a yard loss. 
Castiglione was stopped just short 
of the goal line, but on the next try 
bucked over, subsequently kicking 
the goal with a perfect placement 
to make the score 32-13. 

Woburn tried a short kick, but 
Winchester recovered at the Tan- 
ner’s 49. Deroo picked up two, but 
Winchester was called for backs in 
motion and the ball went back to 
the Winchester 49. 

Rimbach made three yards to the 
Woburn 48 and then occurred the 
last and one of the prettiest plays 
of the game. 

Bill Ross, reserve quarterback, 
faded and shot ofT a perfect pass 
down field to the right. Nils Nel- 
son, reserve end, made a nice catch 
at the Woburn 35, and making good 
use of a couple of down-field block- 
ers dodged and ran into the end 
zone for the final score. 

Ross made the extra point good 
by lobbing a soft pass into the end 
zone to “Brother John” Murphy.

We happened to be in police head-

of motorists arrived there with 
tickets for traffic violations, chiefly 
overtime parking. With but a 
single exception those who appear- 
ed seemed to feel that the officer 
should not have tagged their cars 
and offering all sorts of excuses for 
having violated the hour or two 
hour parking limit. The exception 
was a popular local merchant, who 
admitted he had overparked and 
that he had been presuming too 
much on police good nature. Of 
ull those to whom we listened he 
alone seemed to realize why park- 
ing laws and officers who will en- 
force them are necessary. 


SMOKE SCREEN TORIES 


Editor of the Star: 

The smoke-screener Tories, vain- 
glorious cowards, say they are 
afraid — afraid they will incrimi- 
nate themselves if they reveal 
their past. By their very refusal 
to cooperate with the patriots, who 
are striving to perpetuate the liber- 
ty our forefathers bequeathed to 
us, they incriminate themselves — 
they are incriminated already. 
They love themselves more than 
their country. 

Mux Muller, eminent philologian, 
wrote: “He who withholds the truth 
from men from motives of expe- 
diency, is either a coward or a 
criminal or both.” “No man is 
worth his salt who is not ready at 
all times to risk his body, to risk 
his well-being, to risk his life, in 
a great cause,” said Theodore ! 
Roosevelt; and Daniel Webster 
wrote: “No man can suffer tool 
much in the defense of the liberties j 
of his country.” 

The smoke-screeners, if they had 
lived in 70, would have joined the 
American Tories, who called George 
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, 
Benjamin Franklin and their brave 
followers, traitors. If the British 
had triumphed at Yorktown and 
captured the leaders of the patriots, 
the brave Americans would have 
suffered the fate of the gallant 
Nathan Hale, American Revolution- 
ary hero, who was captured Sep- 
tember 21 and hanged the follow- 
ing morning. His last words are 
said to have been: “I only regret 
that 1 have but one life to lose for 
my country.” Captain Hale was a 
graduate of Yale University that 
honored itself in honoring him by 
the erection on its campus of a 
memorial. 

Samuel P. Sears, former pres- 
ident of the Massachusetts Bar As- 
sociation, is quoted in the Christian 
Science Monitor of November 28 as 
saying: “One Iron Curtain in this 
confused world of ours is enough.” 
“Men who invoke the Fifth Amend- 
ment in congressional probes into 
Communist activities are either 
guilty or not fit to be around. No- 
body lias the right to invoke the 
Fifth Amendment for personal con- 
venience or to hamper congression- 
al investigation.” 

England did not love us in 76, 
„shc bus never loved us and doesn’t 
today. But, what is the matter 
with Canada? She has refused to 
cooperate wholeheartedly with us in 
our struggle against the poisonous 
infiltration of Communism. Igor 
Gouzenko was a member of the So- 
viet embassy in Ottawa. In 1045 
he fled from there, taking with him 
Soviet documents that “helped con- 
vict eleven spies, including a Cana- 
dian M. I*, and a British scientist 
and gave leads on some 400 other 
suspected Red operatives in the 
West.” When our Government 
heard of this, the State Department 
asked Canada to let its investi- 
gators talk to Gouzenko, who said 
he was willing to talk, and “could 
give advice which would have good 
chances of bringing exposure . of 
present Soviet spy rings in the 
U. S.” The Canadian External 
Affairs Chief, Lester Pearson, re- 
fused our Government’s request, 
stating that Gouzenko had told 
Canada all he knew and thut was 
all there was to it. We were wel- 
come to a copy of it. Gouzenko, 


WELCOME 

TO THE NEW COMMAND 


Editor of the Star: 

The Military Manpower Commit- 
tee takes great pleasure in intro- 
ducing to the people of Winchester 
the officers now in charge of 
Army Air Force Recruiting and in 
extending to them a hearty welcome 
to this area. Inasmuch as these are 
the officers handling the enlistment 
and induction of our young men a 
thumbnail sketch should he of in- 
terest. 

Lt. Colonel William A. Somcrby, 
Jr., USAF, is now Commanding 
Officer. He attended grammar and 
high school in Newton and is a 
graduate of Bryant and Stratton. 
His mother, Mrs. Blanche H. Som- 
erby, lives in Duxbury, Mass. “The 
Colonel” (we don’t use this phrase 
unless we really like and respect a 
man) has been in the Air Force for 
20 years to date. During World 
War If he served as Commanding 
Officer of the 11th Combat Cargo 
Squadron in the China Burma In- 
dia Theater of Operations. His last 
assignment was an Air Attache in 
Hungary where he spent 34 months 
(being behind the Iron Curtain is 
hardly a relaxing occupation). 
Coloney Somerby is a senior pilot 
and is the holder of two DFC’s, 
three Air Medals, the Bronze Star, 
Pacific Theater Ribbon with 3 Stars 
and Burma Star. He resides in 
Franklin, Mass., with his wife and 
three daughters. 

Captain Samuel R. Violante, 
USA, born in Woburn, attended 
public schools in Ansonia, Conn., 
enlisted in regular Army in 1936; 
World War II, was in Iceland with 
the 118 Infantry Regiment and 


■ throughout the European Cam- 
paign served with XVIII Airborne 
•Corps (General Ridgeway). In 
1960 Captain Violante was assigned 
to Trieste and came on Recruiting 
in 1953. Here is a very interesting 
thing — The Cuptain attended the 
University of Maryland in Trieste 
— another example of a man in 
uniform taking advantage of the 
educational opportunities open to 
him in the Armed Forces. Captain 
Violante is now in charge of Oper- 
ations, USA /USAF Rctg. to which 
position we more than welcome him. 

First Lt. Edward A. Myer, hard- 
ly needs any introduction to Win- 
chester. We are very glad to have 
him join the Recruiting Service. 
Lt. Myer attended Grammar School 
in Weymouth and graduated from 
Milton High School in 1947; en- 
listed in Regular Army June 1947 
and was assigned to Ft. Banks, 
Winthrop until separation Decem- 
ber 1948; attended Newman Prep. 
School, Boston, graduating in June 
1950; re-enlisted for Officer Train- 
ing School and was commissioned 
at Ft. Banning, Gn., in November 
1961; reported to 101st ABN Div., 
Camp Breckinridge, Ky.; left for 
FECOM August 1952; reporting to 
the 15th Regt., 3rd I)iv., Korea, 
September 1952. As Lt. Myer 
tersely puts it “Taken prisoner 
Chorwan Valley 26th November, 
1952 — repatriated September 

1953”. About what happened in 
between the last two dates Lt. 
Myer does not talk so neither will 
the writer. He was recently mar- 
ried and we know he and his charm- 
ing bride will he very happy. Not 
without some emotion do we say 
“Welcome” to a fine young officer. 

Cordially yours, 

Mrs. K. B. Toye, Chairman 

Military Manpower Committee 


living under an assumed name and ' 
under Canadian police protection, | 
told an interviewer there was more 
to it. More recent reports state 1 
that Pearson has changed his mind 
and that Gouzenko may lie inter- 
viewed, provided his statements are 
kept secret. 

The Tories of today may find a 
more congenial atmosphere in Ca- 
nada as many of their progenitors 
did following the Revolutionary 
War. The laxity of the era of the 
Roosevelt-Truman blight made it 
easy for the Communists to infil- 
trate the state departments and 
munition factories. An easy-going 
carelessness developed and spread, 
lawlessness increased, and the seeds 
of juvenile delinquency were plant- 
ed, resulting in an alarming in- 
crease of juvenile crime. 

The people are awakening, rising 
from their lethargy, and beginning 
to act. There are more good people 
than bad in our country; the trouble 
is, the bad get the headlines. Truth 
and reform will prevail in an era 
of better times. “Breathes there 
the man, with soul so dead, who 
never to himself hath said; this is 
my own, my native land.” 

Daniel C. Dennett, M. D. 


THANK YOU! 

Editor of the Star: 

May we have space in your paper 
to thank all Winchester people who 
so generously answered our recent 
plea for help for the earthquake 
sufferers of Greece. Their response 
was speedy and made it possible 
for our local committee to send 
substantial help while it was most 
urgently needed. As chairman of 
the local committee may I express 
my own und my committee’s deep 
appreciation.

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP 


B. U. CHILDREN S THEATRE 
PRESENTS "SLEEPING BEAUTY" 


On Saturday afternoon, Decem- 
ber 12, at 3:00 p. m. in the new au- 
ditorium of the George Washington 
School, the Boston University 
Children’s Theatre will present 
“Sleeping Beauty”, Grimm's much 
loved fairy tale. 

There is scarcely a child* who has 
not heard the story of the beautiful 
sleeping princess; and here they 
will see come to life their old 
friends, Princess Gloria, Prince 
Godwin, Chester the Jester, deaf 
Aunt Agatha, and the evil fairy 
Fearinda. Raggedy Ann, the love- 
able mascot of the theatre group 
will also be present to delight the 
children. 

This production is being sponsor- 
ed by the George Washington 
School Mothers' Association. 


Mr. Wade L. Grindle, principal of 
Winchester High School and Eliz- 
abeth O’Brien of Marycliff Acad- 
emy, were Winchester representa- 
tives at the meeting of the New 
England Association of Colleges 
and Secondary Schools which took 
place this week in Boston. More 
than 1,000 educators from all over 
New England attended this meet- 
ing of the oldest of the nation’s 
regional educational associations. 


TELEPHONE COMPANY 
MAKES HISTORY 

SPANS ATI. ANTIC WITH 

< Alll.K 

History was made today when 
the Long Lines Department: of the 
Telephone and Telegraph Company 
announced plans to construct the 
first telephone cable system across 
the Atlantic Ocean. It will he by 
far the longest underseas voice 
cable in the world nnd the first laid 
at depths found in mid-ocean. 

The announcement stated that 
an agreement had been signed, for 
construction of the cable, by the 
A. T. & T. Company, the British 
Post Office, which organization pro- 
vides telephone service in Great 
Britain, and the Canadian Overseas 
Te 1 ecom m un i ca t i on Co rpora t i on , 

which furnishes overseas commu- 
nications for Canada. It will be 
owned jointly by these three or- 
ganizations. Simultaneous a n- 
nouncemcnts were made by the ap- 
propriate agencies in Great Britain 
and Canada. 

Developmental and research work 
on such a cable has been going on 
for 25 years. The project will take 
three years to complete and will 
cost $36,000,000. 

This cable will mean greater re- 
liability in transatlantic telephone 
conversations and greatly expand- 
ed facilities. It will provide phy- 
sical telephone connection between 
the United States and the British 
Isles to supplement radio circuits 
now in use, and will have three 
times present circuit capacity. 

The submarine telephone cable 
system will contain a group of tele- 
phone circuits between New York 
and London, and another group 
between Montreal and London. At 
the gateway cities the circuits will 
connect with the telephone systems 
of the respective countries. 

Spanning the Atlantic with a 
cable system capable of carrying 
tclephonse conversations will be the 
achievement of a goal visualized 
many years ago. Many technical 
and economic problems had to be 
solved before construction could be 
undertaken. Developments of the 
past few years in the art of telc- 
I hony mid the growing demand for 
< versear service have now made it 
technically and economically fea- 
sible to proceed. 

The transatlantic portion of the 
system, with its many vacuum tube 
repeaters, will be 2,000 nautical 
miles in length and will he laid in 
depths up to three miles on the 
ocean floor between Scotland and 
Newfoundland. It will then con- 
nect with another submarine cable 
extending 300 miles westward to 
Nova Scotia. From there, a 350 
mile overland microwave radio- 
relay system will he built to carry 
the transatlantic circuits to the 
United States border where con- 
nections will be made with the Bell 
System network. 

Development of the technical de- 
sign for the deep sea section of the 
cable project has been under way 
in the Bell Telephone Laboratories 
for several years. Research by 
British telephone engineers has 
produced the design for the New- 
foundland- Nova Scotia section of 
the submarine cable. As a result, 
the project will make use of the 
experience of both the Bell System 
and the British Tost Office. 

The announcement also covered 
many of the technical problems 
faced by telephone engineers in 
providing a transatlantic telephone 
cable. For example, amplifiers had 
to he developed which could lie laid 
successfully from a cable ship, and 
which would operate satisfactorily 
without attention under the great 
pressures existing on the Atlantic 
floor. Such devices were developed 
several years ago and have under- 
gone successful trial between Key 
West, Florida, and Havana, Cuba, 
since 1950. There will be over 100 
underwater repeaters on the trans- 
atlantic segment of the proposed 
system. The vacuum tubes used in 
these amplifiers have been under 
development for years and have 
withstood both laboratory and un- 
' derwater operating tests of the 
I severest kind. The voice currents 
will travel along coaxial conductors 
which will be insulated by a solid 
! layer of polyethylene. Power to 
' operate the vacuum tubes on the 
ocean bed will he fed in from Doth 
j ends of the cable along the same 
! coaxial conductor. The cable will 
lie protected by a wrapping of cop- 
1 per foil, over which there will he a 
• heavy cover of jute and steel wires. 


Bell System overseas service 
opened on January 7, 1927, with n 
* ngle radiotelephone circuit con- 
necting New York to London. Dur- 
ing the first year, service rapidly 
expanded between the two coun- 
tries and nearly 2,500 calls were 
completed. Since then, the service 
demand to Great Britain has multi- 
plied by more than 30 times. Last 
year, f or example, some 75,000 con- 
versations were completed to Great 
Britain. The Bell System now fur- 
nishes telephone service to 102 
foreign countries and annually 
handles about 1,000,000 overseas 
messages. 


GUILD OF THE INFANT SAVIOUR 


The annual reception to new 
members will follow the regular 
monthly meeting of the Guild, 
which will he held in Masonic Hall 
at 2:00 p. ni. December 8th. 

Mrs. John Ryan, chairman of the 
afternoon, has arranged a musical 
program for this event. 

Mrs. Talma Greenwood will pin 
a corsage on each new member and 
Mrs. Katherine Doyle will present 
her to the Guild. 

This afternoon is always a high 
light in the Guild activities as the 
old members look forward to wel- 
coming new associates. 

Tea and refreshments will he 
served by Mrs. Joseph Burgatti nnd 
her committee. 

On December 29th, a Children’s 
Party will be conducted in Masonic 
Hall. This is good news for the 
small fry. 


The police were notified Monday 
morning shortly after 8:30 by a 
resident of Prospect street that her 
infant daughter had swallowed a 
ring nnd was turning blue. Sgts. 
John Dolan and Edward Bowler 
made haste to the woman’s home 
with Officer Alfred Poole and the 
police ambulance. A call was also 
sent in to Dr. Harry Mueller, who 
removed the ring from the baby’s 
throat.

Wc arc all prone to take our 
“religion” for granted. Wer 
say we are “Christians,” that 
we lead a "Christian Life,” 
we go to church regularly or 
occasionally. We have time 
for our “religious life” if 
nothing else interferes. 

In many cases, our atti- 
tudes are a result of going 
to church to be lectured to or entertained. If we 
don’t like the lecturer or the entertainment, we 
stay away. 

We Episcopalians believe that the group wor- 
ship of our church is the answer. One prominent 
clergyman, formerly a newspaper reporter, puts 
it this way — "In the Episcopal church, it is the 
corporately held faith, the corporately shared act 
of worship, the corporately accepted idea of dis- 
cipline and conduct that arc important; it is not 
the peculiarities of particular persons or services 
or sermons.” 

Many non-Episcopalians, after attending Epis- 
copal services long enough to “get acquainted” say 
that they come away feeling as though “they had 
really been in church.” 

Wc invite you to come to church with us. Your 
nearby fellow-worshiper will be happy to show 
you how to follow the service 
in our Prayer Book. We'll 
welcome you.

IN "A UTTER FROM GRAMPY" 

11 Cottage avenue 

Winchester, Mass. 

December 1, 1053 
Dear Grandchildren : 

I have just finished talking with 
someone in Princeton, New Jersey, 
about “Acoustics”. It is fitting 
that I should seek information 
there, because the country looks 
up to it on account of its 
achievements in research, and be- 
cause of the great personage who 
heads its Research Institute. In 
building churches and music halls 
and theatres and all sorts of build- 
ings acoustics is one of the impor- 
tant studies and if this “science of 
sound” he not considered in making 
the plans nil the work may be wast- 
ed so far ns hearing goes. Errors 
can he of tremendous harm inside 
the buildings, but out-of-doors 
errors can be much worse. When 
changes are made, both inside and 
outside of buildings, this science 
has to be depended on to safeguard 
what is being done. Even raising 
the levels of existing railroads can 
be the means of ruining a whole 
neighborhood and menacing the 
health of hundreds and hundreds of 
people, if this “science of sound” he 
not invoked in order to (ind what 
effect the raising would have on the 
volume of sound. I had planned for 
you a special series of articles about 
Nature studies, but am obliged to 
write this one first because of 
sorrfething happening here in Win- 
chester. It involves what I must 
call “a crime against a whole town, 
and all its people”, through ignor- 
ance of the science of sound. First 
I will talk about this crime, and 
then perhaps about other past hap- 
penings about which you already 
know, and which may enable you to 
draw conclusions, being about in- 
juries and hardships caused to 
people and places through disre- 
gard of this most important feature 
in planning, and disregard for the 
rights of everyone. It is not al- 
ways a conscious wrongdoing, this 
disregard, but the effect is the 
same. 

Your Mother may have explain- 
ed how Winchester came into being. 
How all New England was covered 
with ice until storms and floods 
came and moved the ice out to sea, 
and revealed what lay underneath. 
When the first white people settled 
here they did not understand that 
if others were already here, of dif- 
ferent color and habits and lan- 
uage then the others must he con- 
sidered enemies, with no rights at 
all. They actually paid money to 
people if they would only drive 
them away. Where we live is part 
of u long and heautiful valley, call- 
ed the Merrimac Valley, with lakes 
and rivers and hills, and wonderful 
birds and animals. The rivers and 
the streams turned mill-wheels for 
all sorts of grain, and even ran 
machinery for making clothing. 
Such a mill existed at a place called 
Lowell, where a great rock ledge 
in the river made the water rise and 
rise until it forced its way over the 
rock ledge, or “dam”, and plunging 
down with tremendous force gouged 
its way and would not be restrain- 
ed, even moving huge rocks and un- j 
dermining the trees along its banks 
until their roots were torn away. 
But in time everything came under! 
control and the power of waterfalls | 
came to be understood all over the 
country. Think of Niagara in this j

country, and those in Africa and 
other countries! Well, all (he way 
from Lowell to Boston became quite 
settled, with farms and people 
working at trades contentedly. A 
‘ canal was dug and barges were 
hauled by horses and other animals 
for great distances, carrying the 
products of the farmers and trades- 
men to Boston for sale. Especially 
the things manufactured at Lowell. 
The mills that had been established 
there because of the great amount 
of “power” the river furnished, 
made such things as cotton sheet- 
ing, anti cotton for dresses, and 
such like. Well, of course the mills 
could not do it without the “raw” 
cotton being first taken there, 
so as soon as railroads began to be 
built in England it was decided to 
build one between Boston and 
Lowell and thus “speed up” travel. 
The Boston and Lowell Railroad 
was begun, and Massachusetts en- 
couraged the enterprise by grant- 
ing a "right of way” right through. 

It passed through South Woburn, 
which our town was then called. 
Of course you know it would be 
unsafe for the streets and the rail- j 
road to cross each other at the same 1 
level, and it was made very clear 
that if a road, or street, did cross, 
then the town must build a bridge 
for the street to go over, because it 
was foreseen that in time neglect 1 
of this would surely lead to loss of ; 
life, both of animals and people, j 
Never until now has the danger 
been removed by separating the 
streets from the railroads Now, 
120 years afterwards, the people of 
Winchester and the State of Mass- 
achusetts are trying to work out a 
solution which shall remove all 
danger for all time to come. The 
men selected to “run” the town, or 
do the office work or whatever you 
call it, have spent countless hours 
considering and planning, holding 
meetings and conferring with en- 
gineers and specialists, until they 
are about worn out and feel that 
the only way out is to accept the 
suggestion of some people who have 
seen “elevated railroads” in various 
cities and therefore are positive 
that the only thing for Winchester 
is to have the Boston and Maine 
Railroad lifted up so high over the 
streets so there can he no further 
trouble. (The Boston and Lowell 
became part of the Boston and 
Maine.) This has led to a “plan” 
l*cing worked on to actually do 
this, and much money has already 
been spent in making surveys and 
calculations and estimates. Much 
opposition has arisen because of the 
$(>,000,000 estimated cost and the 
harm which will come to all the 
business district and in fact to 
everyone jvho does not live or have 
business at a great distance from 
the railroad. 

At the Centre the height of the 
roadbed is planned to he nineteen 
feet, and at Wedgemere station nine 
feet, diminishing to zero where the 
railroad reaches Medford. This of 
course blots out each side of the 
town from the other side, because 
of the great height, and the pas- 
senger trains and freight trains 
make the height about thirty feet 
higher than the roadbed is now! 
So positive and so “worked up” and 
so convinced have been those who 
cannot think of anything else being 
better, or even worth considering, 
that they have brought about a 
“counting” of those in favor and 
those against. A “referendum”. 

Now, for your parents’ benefit 
as well as yours, 1 am confronted 
with the most painful duty of all 
my life in this lovely town, (nearly 
half a century) and toward which 
all I have said before has been 
leading: That is, a recital of what 
has brought about what is claimed 
by those who “would not knowingly 
set foot upon a worm” yet arc in 
influential positions and are capable 
of mature judgment, — a vote to ele- 
vate the railroad tracks across the 
whole width of Winchester, from 
Medford to Woburn. The roadbed 
presented to the Boston and Lowell 
Railroad in 1881 and whose right 
to remain at the same level has 
never been questioned! It was 
ordered by Massachusetts in 1834 
that no roads or streets should he 
allowed to cross the tracks unless 
they went over a bridge to do it, for 
public safety. Nothing was done 
about it because everybody felt 
safe anyway, and now, in a great 
hurry, the selectmen and a com- 
mittee organized to create favor- 
able sentiment have brought about 
the overhead through much adver- 
tising and much canvassing. Those 
voting Yes were 2,982, and 2,109 
said No. That is, a majority of 873! 
They claim that if 873 more said 
Yes than said No, then the voice 
of Winchester has spoken and Win- 
chester wants the tracks raised. 
Don’t ever believe it! If Winches- 
ter had wanted such a misconceived 
idea put into effect, all those who 
did not vote would have said so. 
They were so sure the whole thing 
was “cut and dried” they just 
wouldn’t bother; some of course 
lived so far from the tracks nothing 
could hurt them. Few of the select 
men or the special committee live 
anywhere near the railroad, and so 
no matter what injury came to 
others, well, what of it! You know, 
the business is on level ground at 
the bottom of the valley, and the 
train noises are carried along the 
ground and up the slopes, and have 
been gotten used to. The stores, 
and many houses, are at the same 
level as the railroad. The “raisers” 
want to elevate the roadbed to 
nineteen feet at the centre, and nine 
feet at Wedgemere, a rise of ten 
feet in a mile or less. What ex- 
press train, or what freight train 
j (sometimes covering all that dis- 
tance) would not have to tug and 
strain and pump and hump, just 
to stop at Winchester and start 
up again. Every train would 
pass at the bedroom, or second

story level, and the people could 
do nothing about it. But the mis- 
ts and the special committee de- 
clare it the ' nly way. Listen care- 
fully, and then make up your own 
mind: 1 telegraphed Princeton ask- 
ing bo expert advice about any in- 
crease in sound volume if the rail- 
road bed should bo raised nineteen 
feet. The answer came: the ctTect 
would he three times ns loud as 1 
now. An engineer 1 know had con- 
sulted a trained acoustician of na- 
tional experience, and his answer 
was the same, but that nt Highland 
avenue it would be still louder. 

I believe all those yes-men are 
laid wide open to attack. Nothing 
I have seen in the papers has re- 
ferred to this in any way. Further, 
with the exception of the pictures 
showing stations and underpasses I 
no “elevations” have been shown, 
and the angle foreshortens the ap- 
parent height, which, whether in- 
tended or not, focuses the mind on 
the remarkably good draughtsman- 
ship lather than the real height. 
What buildef. what architect, would 
go to work with only a ground plan 
and without a plan showing “eleva- 
tion”? 1 do not say, and I do not 
believe, that there was any sinister 
intention. 1 do say, and I do be- 
lieve, that those 873 and many more 
were led astray. How could they 
see through that well-built wall of 
granite, nineteen feet high and 
just as thick, the layout beyond. 
How could even those directing the 
public mind away from the losses 
and toward the gains know what 
they were letting themselves in for 
with an increased sound effect 
three times ns loud! The ve- 
hicular traffic for this year will 
probably exceed 30,000 vehicles, 
“through” and local. Of necessity 
an underpass with such an angle 
of approach as the one pictured, 
would be practically “blind”. If 
the traffic count in 1950 was 20,500, 
what may it be in 1900, in 1970, and 
later? The voters’ who would 
spend $0,000,000 for an “elimina- 
tion” of guesswork cannot surely 
he interested in the good of their 
town as much as in “following the 
leader”, etc. If with an open mind 
all work together there need he no 
crossing. The suggestions made 
some time ago and re-iterated on 
the 20th by Mr. Mott, have much 
to commend them. Take the traffic 
off Main street either at Swanton 
street or somewhere near it, where 
there is plenty of elevation, and 
bridge both Loop and Main tracks, 
connecting with Washington street 
either at the circle or near it. The 
Fitzgeralds could put down con- 
crete walls and railings in record 
time. Then connect up West Main 
street with Bacon street by adopt- 
ing the plan Mr. Quigley suggested 
of a new piece of road between 
Waterfield road and Bacon street, 
along the railroad. Then, the cross- 
ing would not exist and there would 
be no gates and bells, but the circu- 
lation in the traffic arteries would 
be natural and no temperatures 
forced to fever-height. Provision 
for foot-passengers, underneath, of 
course. It is my fervent hope that 
the Commissioner, now a resident, 
with home and outlook as worthy 
as any in this or any near-by town, 
will recognize the indignity and dis- 
regard of all in such a well-meant 
but destructive project, and bring 
about delay and re-planning. Talk 
of wrong slopes need not be, with 
both ends of Highland avenue to 
prove it. Why be “defeatist”, with 
a Boston more than thirty times as 
large in 1903 as the original town. 
We will do what we will to do. I 
bear in my own body the marks of 
other’s disregard of right; my car 
has been struck by a three-year-old 
darting across from the side-walk; 
and I know what flesh is heir to. 
If we are determined to preserve 
the good and reject what is not, 
then this Winchester we are proud 
of can remain a home tow,n, with 
residents respecting each other and 
each other’s rights. I quote: “Who 
shall be eyes to the blind?” If a 
true picture is sought, and a means 
of bettering instead of inflicting on 
all what includes much guess-work, 
then walk the routes, decide the 
practical, the best. Then go on 
from there. I am just as confident 
that you who try to, will see, as I 
was and am sure that when I took 
around an inspection party to all 
the forts in Halifax, many years 
ago, Miss Helen Keller who was 
both blind and deaf, did see, by the 
personal touch and helpful hand and 
fingers of her friend Miss Sullivan, 
everything she handled.

A STORY WITH A MORAL MISS CIRIGNANO SHOWERED 


The Robert P. Wild of Herrick 
fttreet went over to Concord last 
Thursday to spend Thanksgiving 
with Mrs. Wild’s brother-in-law and 
sister, Mr. and Mrs. John Chandler 
Hill. 

After dinner in the interest of 
good physical hygiene “Rob” took 
the kiddos for a walk and as they 
passed a neighboring farm they 
saw some cattle in a pasture. 

The cattle were at some distance 
and Bob thought it would be a good 
idea to get them nearer to his little 
party so that the children could get 
a better look. To do so he entered 
the pasture with his son. Russell, in 
his arms and did his best to get the 
cattle’s attention. 

His best was plenty good enough, 
as things turned out, for two good 
sized steers not only came right 
over, but clearly resented the in- 
vasion of their domain. 

Bob started to leave the pasture 
at speed, but he didn’t miss the re- 
ception committee by much, and in 
the end he had to toss Russell over 
the fence and made a very rapid 
leap over the barrier himself. 

His landing wasn’t just as he 

S lanned it, and he suffered several 
ruised and cracked ribs. Russell 
wasn’t hurt, fortunately, and Bob, 
at last reports, suffered no per- 
manent ill effects. The moral, ac- 
cording to “Bob”, is never to enter 
a populated pasture unless you I 
really know your steers! 


Mrs. Anthony Chcfalo of 467 
Washington street gave a shower 
Tuesday evening, at the home of 
her mother, Mrs. Nicholas T. Ciri- 
gnano, 361 Washington street, for 
her sister, Miss Louise Ann Ciri- 
gnano, whose marriage to Robert 
L. Lee, USAF, of Saugus, is to 
take place on December 2G at St. 
Mary’s Church. 

Thirty-five relatives and friends 
attended the shower, for which the 
house was attractively and appro- 
priately decorated. 

The bride-to-be received many 
beautiful gifts and after the pack- 
ages were opened and Miss Ciri- 
gnano had expressed her thanks 
refreshments were served and a 
social hour enjoyed. 

Hostesses were Mrs. Alphonse 
Lambiase and Mrs. Peter Lonigro. 


Lt. Aidan Underwood is home 
on furlough from Fort Sill, Okla- 
homa, before reporting to Fort 
Kilmer for assignment overseas in 
Germany. He is the son of Mrs. 
Elizabeth B. Underwood of 34 Ox- 
ford street, and brother of Lt. Jerry 
Underwood, who has returned to 
Fort Knox, Ky., after being in Win- 
chester for Thanksgiving. Both 
boys graduated from Boston Col- 
lege this year. 


WHEELER - CROWELL 


There is Winchester interest in 
the marriage which took place at 
the First Parish Meeting House in 
Concord on Saturday afternoon, 
November 28, when Sliss Barbara 
Hall Crowell, daughter of Mr. and 
Mrs. Donald Gibbs Crowell of Con- 
cord, formerly of Winchester, be- 
came the bride of Harvey Wheeler. 
The four o’clock candlelight service 
was read by the Rev. Edward Perry 
Daniels in an attractive setting of 
cymbidium forms, and a reception 
followed at the Concord Country 
Club where the bridal party receiv- 
ed before an antique gold screen 
banked with bittersweet and arbor- 
vitae. 

Given in marriage by her father, 
Miss Crowell wore a family heir- 
loom wedding gown. Fashioned of 
silk taffeta, it had pleated taffeta 
ruffles edging the scalloped hem- 
line, and a full cathedral-length 
train. Her veil and onp of antique 
Brussels point lace were held in 
place by stephanotis and she car- 
ried a bouquet of bouvardia and 
Eucharis lilies. 

Mrs. Malcolm Young of Lexing- 
ton was her sister’s matron of 
honor. Her gown of pale gold faille 
taffeta had a portrait neckline and 
long flared skirt and she carried a 
bouquet of Italian wheat, cinnamon 
fern and bittersweet tied with a bow 
and streamers of cinnamon velvet 
ribbon. 

The bridesmaids were Mrs. 
David Wilcox of New York City; 
Miss Jane Garvey of Cincinnati, 
Ohio; Miss Joan Dickey of Pitts- 
burgh, Pa., and Hyannisport; and 
Miss Margaret Barr of Louisville, 
Ky. Their gowns and bouquets were 
like those of the matron of honor. 
All the attendants wore bandeaux 
of velvet ribbon in tones of cinna 
mon, with aigrettes of wheat. 

Mrs. Crowell, the bride’s mother, 
wore taupe faille with a hat of 
taupe and gold leaves and a cor- 
sage of green and white cypripe 
dium orchids. Mrs. Wheeler, moth- 
er of the bridegroom, was gowned 
in French blue brocade with a hat 
to match and an orchid corsage. 

Charles D. MacPherson of Acton 
was best man. The ushers includ- 
ed David Wheeler of Reading, Pa., 
brother of the bridegroom; Mal- 
colm Young of Lexington, brother- 
in-law of the bride; Fessenden 
Morse of Wayland; Gardner Edgar- 
ton and Frank Coolidge of Con- 
cord; and Charles L. Collins of 
Lexington. 

The bride was graduated from 
Westover School and attended Ben- 
nett Junior College and the Vesper 
George School of Art. She is a 
member of the Junior League of 
Boston. The bridegroom prepared 
at Belmont Hill School and attend- 
ed Trinity College, which he left to 
become a lieutenant in the U. S. 
Naval Air Force during World War 
II. After a wedding trip to the 
South, they will make their home 
in Concord. 



THE MYSTIC GLEE CLUB SEPTET 


NEW MYSTIC LEAGUE 


ENGAGEMENT 


Rev. William S. Packer of Yale 
street spent Thanksgiving in Wash- 
ington with his daughter, Mrs. 
Cedric Seager (Gertrude Packer). 
He flew down and back, and ac- 
cording to his own account, did not 
like the experience. 


Since the popular Mystic Four 
was forced to disband several years 
ago due to the migration of Skip 
White and A1 Swett to other loca- 
tions, there has been a demand for 
another group within the club to do 
the type of close harmony which 
had proved so popular. 

Not until this year, however, has 
it been possible to find the right 
combination of voices to carry on 
in the style of that excellent quar- 
tet. 

Originally organized as the Mys- 
tic Glee Club Octette, the group 
will operate temporarily as a 
septet, since Len Lord, one of its 
basses, is presently on a business 
trip to the West Coast. 

The Glee Club members, having 
had a pre-view of the Septet, are 
certain that it will prove to be one 
of the highlights of the 14th An- 
nual Winter Concert to be held in 
the Winchester High School Audi- 
torium on Saturday evening, De- 
cember 12. 

In addition to Tom Worthen and 
Bill Hopkins of the Mystic Four, 
the new group includes Ken Wright 
and George Stothoflf, first tenors, 
Jack Gilbert, second tenor, Fred 
Rozelle, baritone and Dick Jackson, 
bass. 


Rear Admiral Julian Dubois 
Wilson, USN, ret., and Mrs. Wilson 
of Hyannis and Washington, D. C., 
announce the engagement of their 
daughter, Miss Julianna Dubois 
Wilson, to William Foss Thompson, 
son of Mrs. William Laban Thomp- 
son of Cabot street, and the late 
Mr. Thompson. 

Miss Wilson is a graduate of 
Maryland University, the John 
Hopkins University Graduate 
School of Advanced International 
Relations in Washington, D. C., and 
the Katharine Gibbs School in Bos- 
ton. 

Mr. Thompson, a lieutenant in 
the Naval Reserve, was graduated 
from the Maine Maritime Academy 
and from Harvard University. He 
is now attending the Harvard 
Graduate School of Business Ad- 
ministration. 


MARRIAGE ANNOUNCED 


Mrs. Arietta L. Sanderson of 2 
Dix street and Mr. Stanley H. 
Withrow of Hartford, Conn., an- 
nounce their marriage on Novem-

On Wednesday evening of this 
veek, some fifty laymen gathered 
t the Church for the purpose of 
•anvnssing the opportunities and 
(‘sponsihilities the Church affords 
ler laymen. The meeting was 
•haracterized by enthusiasm and a 
3c?p concern as to how the laymen 
•an more effectively serve the 
(’lunch and advance Christ’s King- 
dom. 

This was the second such meet- 
Hg held at First Baptist Church in 
lie last month and it appears that 
he laymen are determined to make 
heir influence felt in an effective 
way. We all thank Mr. Alfred 
Meur ling for the fine entertainment 
\nd also the Committee who set up 
‘.he program. 


Creation of a separate passenger 
service department of the Boston 
and Maine Railroad, to he headed 
hy Vice-President Robert M. Edgai 
of 2 Oxford street, was announced 
this week by President T. (». Sugh- 
l ue for the purpose of intensive re- 
view of passenger services and re- 
duction of the annual deficit from 
passenger operations. 

In making the announcement 
President Sughrue stated that the 
new head of the Passenger Depart- 
ment will have complete authority 
to set up an organization capable 
of handling traffic, sales and oper- 
ations. 

“There must be a way to sub- 
stantially reduce, if not completely 
l eliminate the annual deficit from 
passenger operations which has ap- 
proximated $12,000,000 a year since 
| the war,” Mr. Sughrue said. 

“We believe,” he continued, “that 
way is to improve our service in 
those areas where it is needed and 
used, or where a potential for in- 
creased use exists, just as much as 
it is necessary to curtail or elimi- 
nate services operated at losses in 
areas where current use is slight 
and no potential for growth exists.” 

Vice-President Edgar, who was 
assigned to head up the railroad’s 
new passenger service, is a native 
of a Watertown and a graduate of 
Dartmouth College with the class 
of 1928. He entered the service of 
the Boston and Maine soon after his 
graduation from college and work- 
ed his way up the railroad ladder 
through the Traffic Department in 
Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, 
and New Hampshire prior to his 
appointment as assistant to the 
vice-president in charge of traffic 
for the Boston and Maine and Maim 
Central Railroads. He was ap- 
pointed assistant to the president 
of the Boston and Maine in 1946 
and was elected a vice-president in 
1952. He is a director of the Mys- 
tic Terminal Company, The Boston 
Garden - Arena Corporation, t h e 
Boston Professional Hockey Asso- 
ciation, and the New England 
Council.

3, the auxiliary put on at Bedford 
Hospital a dancing party for 175 
veterans. 


“The First Thanksgiving” was 
the title of an impressive assembly 
presented by the pupils of Miss 
Betty Bntchelder’s fourth grade on 
Novembet 22. The play opened 
with a group of children of today 
talking about the brave Pilgrims 
>f long ago. 

As they talked, the scene changed 
to the Plymouth of 1621. Pupils 
dressed in the Costumes of the 
Pilgrim fathers or wearing the 
garb of their Indian friends enacted 
the well known stories of that first 
year when the little settlement was 
struggling for existence. At last 
the efforts of the colonists were 
successful, and Governor Bradford 
gave the order for a great feast of 
thanksgiving. 

To the appreciative audience of 
parents and friends it seemed that 
the children had caught the real 
spirit of that first Thanksgiving, 
when the Pilgrims came to give 
thanks for all the good things of 
their new life — for a free land 
where people might worship as they 
wished, for men’s right to speak as 
they willed and to govern them- 
selves, for food enough and true 
friends. As they gathered for the 
feast, the announcer asked every- 
one to look about him and he thank- 
ful for the blessings of today, and 
then the children joined in the 
Hymn of Thanksgiving. 

Members of the cast were as fol- 
lows: 

Announcer: Walter Scott. 

Children of 1963: Thomas Bate- 
man, John Clark, Roger Newton, 
Stephen Powers, James Iloldam, 
John Gigcr, Robert Donlon, Gar- 
rett Graves, Gail Towner, David 
Taylor. 

Pilgrims: Josiah Bacon, Ann 


Carleton, Marjory Beal, Edmond 
Harrington, Gordon Trevett. James 
von Rosenvitige. Margaret Matson, 
Bette Lou Brown, Maty Jackson, 
Jane Hood, Juliette Mot an, Irene 
Loftus. Louise Herron. 

Friendly Indians: Ronald Cam- 
ara. Malcolm Bennett. 


President Raymond Merrill of 
the Cooperative Bank, and Mrs. 
Merrill have returned to Winches- 
t ei from Arlington and are living 
at 30 Symtnes toad. The Merrills 
were for many years residents of 
the Kangely section of Winchester 
before moving to Arlington.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 
MEN S CLUB 


The Men’s Club December meet- 
ing bold this past Tuesday evening 
at Chidley Hall proved to be both 
interesting and highly educational. 

Dr. John S. Badcnu, President of 
the Near East Foundation, New 
York City, spoke on the topic 
“Watch the Middle East — World 
Danger Zone.” 

With the ease that comes with ex- 
perience and the conviction of his 
knowledge Dr. Badcau presented n 
clear and simple picture of the Mid- 
dle Enst and the forces at work 
there in n manner that all could 
understand. Few people could 
possibly comprehend this situation 
from the current news reports and 
nowhere has it been presented in 
more concise form. 

I)r. Badcau pointed out that the 
small interest the United States 
had in the Middle East became a 
real concern in 1017 with the emer- 
sion of the Truman Doctrine. The 
stand taken in support of Turkey 
and (ireece against possible Russian 
aggression made the United States 
major influence in this whole area. 

There have been tensions in this 
area for thousands of years hut in 
recent years these tensions have 
come to a head. The reasons can 
he summed up in three Arab words 
or phrases which may be translated 
to (1) association (2) order and 
(3) food. 

The association of the Arab 
world with the Western World has 
been increased because of the new 
Western interests in that area. The 
many associations of East and 
West because of political and com- 
mercial interests has influenced the 
Arabs. There is a tendency to take 
up Western ideas of nationalism, 
self government and individual 
freedom of determination. 

These very ideas of sovereignty 
and independence are behind the 
conflicts with the British in the 
Suez. 

The Isracl-Arab conflict is cen- 
tered in large measure now on how 
the Western World stands behind 
the U. N. resolutions in demanding 
Israel should comply. The Arab 
World had learned Western ideas 
by association but will they be 
treated by the Western World in 
the way they feel the West would 
want to he treated? 

The “new order” in the Middle 
East is shown by a search for new 
ideas of government. This is diffi- 
cult because of the high degree of 
illiteracy which makes true demo- 
cratic government impractical. Old 


orders ran not he overcome or con- 
ciliated easily. 

Dr. Badcau reports that the new 
governments arc the result of the 
middle ela.-s rising to take on the 
leadership to establish new social 
justices and individual freedoms. 
If these new governments succeed 
in satisfying the needs by obtaining 
the cooperation of the varied in- 
terests the Middle Enst will he 
brought closer to the West. Fail- 
ure of the new orders will start 
new uprisings and disorders in the 
East. 

"Food” is taken to mean standard 
of living. The Middle Enst was 
described by Dr. Badcau as a pov- 
erty area due to its geographic and 
climatic conditions. 

While this has been the situation 
for thousands of years two factors 
arc now causing unrest. First the 
association with the higher living 
standards of the West have been 
brought closer to these people. The 
rising birth rate is a second factor 
behind this need for a better stand- 
ard of living. The peasants are be- 
ginning to feel that their lot in this 
world should and could he better. 

Dr. Badcau said that the solution | 
to all this lies with the Middle East 
itself. The needs of the Aral) 
world can best he met by making 
available Western know-how which 
will help solve the problem of the 
peasant discontent by providing a 
continual but simple and gradual 
down-to-earth improvement in the 
standard of living. That they must 
he taught in a friendly and sincere 
way to do this for themselves Dr. 
Badcau made abundently clear. 
Pressure from the Western World 
will tend to alienate these people. 

The meeting started with a fine 
supper at G:30 p. m. A short pro- 
gram of music was well received. 
The Male Chorus of the Senior 
Choir under the direction of J. Al- 
bert Wilson who also accompanied 
presented four numbers, “Song of 
the Jolly Rogers”, “Passing By”, 
“Syncopated Clock” and “Brothers 
Sing On”. 

Miss Dorothy Brandt added a 
measure of the spirit of the coming 
season by a splendid presentation of 
the Christmas song “O Holy Night” 
(Carttique de Noel). 

Meetings of the Mens Club have 
been set for the first Tuesday of 
each month through April, so plan 
to reserve those evenings. 

The program for the January 5th 
meeting will he an interesting pop- 
ular science demonstration with 
members of the Forum as invited 
guests. It should be one of the 
best meetings of the year.

The fascinating whirl of light 
and shadow produced by mobiles 
and spotlights greeted members of 
the Winchester Art Association on 
Tuesday evening for a gala en- 
trance into the holiday spirit. The 
exhibition, which was brought here 
by the efforts of Mrs. Samuel B. 
Kirkwood from the Margaret 
Brown Gallery, Boston, and the Ad- 
dison Gallery of Andover, is one 
of the most interesting ever held nt 
the library, and its opening aroused 
unusual enthusiasm, especially 
among the men in the audience. 

In addition to the intricate and 
delicately balanced leaf and natural 
forms kept swinging by well-placed 
fans, there were stabiles, which are 
sculptural forms similar in plan to 
the mobiles except that they do not 
move through space. These stabiles 
arc made of clear or colored piast- 
res or of metals or of combinations 
of those, and though interesting, in 
general they are less exciting than 
the mobiles with their airy grace 
or dignified rhythm to emphasize 
the beauty of form and color. Al- 
most equally charming and start- 
ling was a mobile called “The Mis- 
creant”; it is a most engaging 
sculptural representation of a 
hounding puppy with remarkable 
grace of form and action. 

Accompanying the exhibition was 
a movie showing Alexander Calder 
at work in his studio making the 
mobiles and suggesting by various 
feats of photography and sound the 
sources for the movements and 
shapes involved in mobile sculpture 
and the kind of artistic synthesis of 
the experiences in life which pro- 
duce this form of art through Mr. 
Calder’s manipulations. 

The Association considers this 
exhibition outstanding in every way 
and congratulates Mrs. Kirkwood 
not only upon having brought it 
here but also upon the artistic suc- 
cess of the labor in hanging it. 

The hostess for the evening was 
Mrs. Milton L. Brown who was as- 
sisted by Mrs. E. P. Walker, Mrs. 
C. F. A. Siedhof, Mrs. Kenneth Hall 
and Mrs. A. B. Bailey. 



The entertainment committee of 
the Winchester Country Club is 
sponsoring one of the popular 
mixed progressive bridge parties 
on Wednesday evening, December 
9, with play starting promptly at 
8 o’clock. Partners will play to- 
gether all evening, and there are 
many fine prizes for the high scor- 
ers.

that December is the most danger- 
ous month on our highways. Dur- 
ing the past five Decembers, more jpj 
than 25, 000 persons hnve been in- 
jured, many permanently disabled, 
while 332 were killed. 

Because motorists and pedes- 
trians have been co-operating with 
official accident prevention pro- 
grams state-wide, the record of De- 
cember highway killings has been 
reduced from 83 in 1950 to 60 in 
1962. 

If every motorist and pedestrian 
will continue his full co-operation 
by displaying greater courtesy, 
caution and consideration for others 
and will try to promote the spirit 
of “Peace On Earth” while on the 
highway, we can prevent death and 
injury through the prevention of 
traffic mishaps and extend our tra- 
ditional greeting of “Good Will To 
All Men” in Dangerous December, 

Registrar King, Chairman of the 
Massachusetts Highway Safety 
Committee, urges every highway 
user to make a special effort to save 
lives this month.

Cnstifclione was the bulwark of 
the Tanners’ offense and he did 
some nice bucking through the big 
Winchester line. He also passed 
and kicked well, did the kicking ofT 
and kicked the points after, an all 
around guy. 


his quick thinking and reflexes that 
enabled him to grab the ball before 

it hit the ground and score from 

the two. 


Coach Paul Dorrington was most 
ihappy when his boys just stood 
around and let Winchester’s Bill 
Jesdale recover that short kickoff 
in the second half. The boys ap- 
parently forgot about a kickoff be- 
ing a free ball, and when you see 
some of the things the college play- 
ers, and even the pros, do on occa- 
sion, lapses by school boys aren't 
to be wondered at. 


This particular lapse was costly 
however, for A1 I indsey scored 
from 37 yards out on the next play. 
Those in the stands who have been 
wanting to see the speedy “Al” 
really get out there and run had 
their wish on the holiday, and was 
he happy! You should have seen 
his grin as he crossed that last 
white line! 


It really was a shame that Cas- 
I tiglionc had to be the goat of that 
I hobbled interception that gave Win- 
chester its fourth touchdown. “Joe” 
i never did have possession of t he 
ball, but in commiserating with 
him you shouldn’t overlook Bellino’s 
^ speed that got him in position, and

While every one on the Winches- 
ter side of the field got a big boot 
out of that final play touchdown 
pass from Bill Ross to Nils Nelson, 
Coach Knowlton probably got the 
biggest kick of all from the kids* 
feat. Bill’s father, “Herb”, was a 
regular end on Knowlton‘s 1927 
team and Hennie and Nils’ father, 
Herb Nelson, a tackle, also played 
together, though not that year.

Talking of crowds, did you not- 
tice the press box? At one time 
there were sixteen people in a place 
designed to handle six to eight per- 
sons. A board of the platform ac- 
tually did give way during the half 
time period, but fortunately no one 
went down with it. Another year 
some different arrangements will 
have to he made. 

Jerry Nason, big boss of the Bos- 
ton Globe sports pages covered the 
game personally as he usually does 
on Thanksgiving, and both Jimmy 
Haggerty, editor of the Woburn 
Daily Times, and John Gaffney of 
the Times staff were in tho press J 
box. Both died a thousand deaths 
during that pass interception fum- 
ble that gave Winchester a touch 
down.

We didn’t happen to see either

The program will begin with an 
organ prelude, Chorale and ( horale 
Prelude on ‘Tuer Natua in Beth- 
lehem’’ by Buxtehude, followed by 
a Rhythmic Candle Processional by 
the members of the Motion ( hoir. 
Then the augmented Choir will sing 
“Zndok the Priest”. This is the 
first of four Coronation Anthems 
composed by Handel in 1728 for the 
Coronation of George II. and it is 
the most famous of the four. Those 
who watched the Coronation of 
Elizabeth II. last June, or subse- 
quently saw the film “A C^ueen Is 
Crowned”, will recognize "Zadok 
the Priest” as the principal musical 
background for the ceremonies 
within Westminster Abbey itself, 
and particularly for that part of the 
service known as the Anointing. 

About “The Messiah”, at this 
season of the year, little needs to 
be said. This is the Christmas sea. 
son, this is the Christmas Oratorio, 
and the section of it to he presented 
Sunday is the Christmas section, or 
Part I, and, of course, the Halle- 
lujah Chorus. 

The soloists will be Dolores 
Bnldygn, Soprano; Muriel Thorley, 
Contralto; John Morabito, Tenor; 
and George Fortune. Bass.

ber 13. Singing with the regulnr

NOTES OF TIIE 
THANKSGIVING GAME 

What n day for a holiday foot- 
hnll panic Thanksgiving turned out 
to he. Prognostications during the 
entire day before were for rain all 
day the holiday and it sure looked 
like the weatherman was going to 
ho right for a change. As a conse- 
quence the bright sunshine was 
doubly welcome, and though it was 
pretty blamed nippy up in the press 
box, conditions elsewhere were 
ideal. 


stands had a capacity of fi,000 and 
there surely were two or mnybe 
more thousands at vantage points 
around the gridiron.

Considering the heavy rain all 
day before the holiday and the 
downpour of the previous Monday 
the gridiron on Manchester Field 
was in great shape, with plenty of 
solid turf for running and cutting. 
It was a good thing the game was 
not at Woburn, for even with the 
advent of the sun the stadium be- 
hind the high school there would 
have been a mudhole.

test of it.

We thought the Woburn 
School banu was the best the 'fan- 
ners have shown at these games, 
and the visiting musicians were well I 
uniformed. i hey were preceded I 
by a phalanx of white uniformed 
drum -majorettes who strutted their 
stuff up and down the field. 


Christmas Greetings 


It didn't seem natural to have 
the fine Winchester High School 
hand play the “Star Spangled Han 
nor” from the stands instead of 
from the middle of the gridiron to 
start off the game, hut the author- 
ities evidently figured it would be 
better to get the band into their 
section in good season. This was 
good judgment, and our National 
Anthem sounded just as good as 
ever as Freddie Felmet and his 
scarlet-coated musicians played it. 

We noted “Mack” McKenzie, for- 
mer Woburn Times reporter, enjoy- 
ing the game from a chair provided 
for him by Coach Henry Knowlton 
near the Winchester bench. "Mack” 
has seen a lot of Winchester-Wo- 
hurn games come and go and al- 
ways get a big kick out of the con- 
tests. 


Many figured the crowd was the 
largest ever to attend a Winches- 
ter- Woburn game. The augmented

The holiday game, while fiercely 
contested, was very cleanly played, 
with no evidence at all of unneces- 
sary rough stuff. The boys hit 
hard, but fairly and the followers 
of both clubs could be proud of 
their lads. 

Winchester surely missed Jim 
Cusack out of the center of its line. 
The star guard waited eagerly for 
news of the game which was relay- 
ed to him just as soon as possible 
and the team gave Jim the game 
ball, autographed by all the players 
and coaches, a fine gesture which 
was much appreciated by Jim and 
his parents.

“Reg”, “Jake” (home on leave) 
and Jean Wentworth took some fine 
colored movies of the game and 
Tuesday evening of this week 
Coach Knowlton took them to the 
Cusack home to let Jim see just 
what he missed on the holiday. 

There were no had injuries 
Thanksgiving. Some of the boys 
got humped pretty hard, especially 
those who got in the way of big 
Mike” Murphy when he was under 
a full head of steam. Those too 
who were tackled by Captain John 
Riordan of Winchester knew full 
well they had been hit.

Add to other fine safeties Win- 
chester has had in the past the 
name of Joe Bellino. This great 
sophomore backfield prospect made 
a couple of last-ditch tackles on the 
holiday that saved probably Wo- 
burn touchdowns, once hand fight- 
ing his way through two blockers 
to make the kill. 


The judges who picked the best 
Winchester b a c k and lineman 
chose “Mike” Murphy and Danny 
Mantini. Not taking a thing from 
either boy, it still must have been 
hard to pick them over Bellino and 
Riordan. And to our mind "Dave” 
Pratt, senior quarter-hack, made his 
last game in a Winchester uniform 
his best.

Winchester wasn’t too happy 
about the officials’ call on the first 
touchdown, which Mike Murphy 
actually made twice. “Mike” was 
easily over on his belt from eight 
yards out, carrying a couple of 
Woburn boys on his back, hut for 
some reason the official calling the 
play put the hall hack on the one 
and made him try again. This time 
there was no question, Murphy 
shoving half the line and two- 
backers-up into the end zone with 
him. It don’t pay to get Mike 
iled, ask Wakefield!

MORE ORANGE PEELS 

They say the wojves are after 
Conch Raul Dofrington at Woburn, 
but those who really know their 
football feel that the former Arl- 
ington and Holy Cross center has 
done very well indeed with the 
available material and other prob- 
lems inherent at Woburn. His 
teams have played hard, interesting 
and above all, clean football against 
Winchester and he is well thought 
of here. 

Those girl tumblers of Winches- 
ter High put on a great exhibition 
between the halves and it is too bad 
that so many people in the stands 
could not see what was really a fine 
show. The crowd was permitted 
to move freely about the gridiron 
during the bctween-the-halves pe- 
riod and quickly formed half-circles 
around the tumblers, effectively 


blotting them from the view of the 
lower sents of the stands. 

It looked a bit ludicrous to see 
the Woburn tenm sitting or kneel- 
ing on the wet turf while their 
benches were filled with visiting 
firemen. We suppose they were all 
VIPs but we still think the hoys 
rated the benches ahead of most of 
the occupants. 


For the benefit of those who may 
have wondered what Brad Bentley 
of Winchester and Camp Wyanoke 
was doing with that youngster on 
his shoulders between the halves, 
lie was trying to get the hoy up 
high enough to spot his lost parents 
in the crowd. The kiddo was miss- 
ing dad and mom and a bit tearful 
when Brad and Edna took over, and 
the view from Brad’s elevation did 
♦lie trick and alTcctcd a mutually 
happy reunion.

Mr. and Mrs. Ralph E. Carlisle of 
10 Reservoir street had a thrilling 
experience early last Sunday morn- 
ing when they received a telephone 
call from their son, Lt. Allen M. 
Carlisle, USA, in Tokyo, Japan. 

Lt. Carlisle, who is with Photo- 
graphic Interpretation Intelligence, 
is presently on a rest and recreation 
leave in Japan. He put his call 
home through exactly six months 
from the day he landed at Inchon in 
Korea, where he has been on active 
duty. 


His parents were called by an 
operator in Los Angeles, Cal., Sat- 
urday morning and told that their 
son would call them after midnight 
Sunday morning. Needless to state 
the Carlisles were ready and wait- 
ing, and they report that their son’s 
voice came through perfectly. 

They got the call at 12:45 Sun- 
day morning and their son informed 
them that he called them in Japan 
at 2:45 in the afternoon.

MID PROSPECTS 
FM "JOCKO” 0000 

Edward “Jocko” Sericka is one 
of the outstanding prospects in the 
Southeastern Conference, says 
Conch Murray Warmath of Missis- 
sippi State College, where the Win- 
chester youth is a student. “Jocko”, 
who is planning a coaching career, 
is enrolled in the School of Physical 
Education. 

Mid-semester grades, recently 
tendered, show that he is a good 
student. He is a non-commissioned 
officer in the Marine Corps Officer 
Candidate’s Program and upon 
graduation will he commissioned a 
second lieutenant in the Marine Re- 
serve. 

Early in the season “Jocko” was 
transferred from the freshman to 
the varsity training squad, where 
he started three freshman games. 
In the Louisiana State University 
game he made the most spectacular 
play of the day, a 58 yard kickoff 
return, and was a star player 
throughout the game. 

“We expect great things from 
this natural football player, and 
Mississippi is already hanking on 


his baseball ability.” Coach War- 

math commented. * 5 

“Jocko” is the son of Mr. and f m *- m ± ^ ^ m M ft 

Mrs. John .1. Sericka of Middlesex ~ ~ T ' 

street. At Winchester High he I 
played the outfield and caught on 
the baseball team and was one of, 
the best running hacks in the his- ; 
tory of Winchester football.

MRS. BEATRICE M. DABNEY 


TO PLAY IN BOSTON 


PHANEUF - MILLIGAN 


Mrs. Beatrice M. Dabney, widow 
of John P. Dabney, 2nd, and a for- 
mer well-known resident of Win- 
chester, died Saturday, December 
ft, at the New England Sanitarium 
and Hospital following a brief ill- 
ness. Though her health of late had 
not been good she had been out a^ 
usual on the day of her death. 

Mrs. Dabney was the daughter of 
Dr. Adolphus B., and Imogene 
(Mosher) Gunter. She was born in 
Charlestown January 28, 1886, and 
was educated at Girls Latin School 
in Boston and Abbot Academy in 
Andover, from which she gradu- 
ated in 1904. 

She was married June 20, 190ft, 
und spent the first years of her 
married life in Seattle, Wash., com- 
ing to Winchester in 1921. Until 
Mr. Dabney's death January 1, 
1949, she and her family lived* on 
Manchester road. She was a mem- 
ber of the Unitarian Church, the 
Women’s Alliance of that church, 
the Winchester Women’s Republi- 
can Club and a former member of 
the Fortnightly Women’s Club. 

After her husband’s death Mrs. 
Dabney went to make her home 
with her daughter, Mrs. John II. 
Jordan, at 2ft9 Summer avenue, 
Reading. Besides Mrs. Jordan, she 
leaves a son, Francis L. Dabney of 
Omaha, Neb.; six grandchildren; 
two sisters, Mrs. Kdythe Derby of 
Winchester and Mrs. J. A. Garfield 
Jeannottee of Freeport, Maine.; al- 
so a brother, Channing Gunter of 
Lowell. 

Cremation took place Monday af- 
ternoon at Mt. Auburn Cemetery. 
Private memorial services were 
held at the late residence on Tues- 
day afternoon. 


89th BIRTHDAY 


Mr. George 11. liamilt..* , long a 
widely known resident of Winches- 
ter, observed his 89th birthday 
Wednesday at the Home for Aged 
People. He received a shower of 
cards and other messages of con- 
gratulation, and also a visit from 
his daughter, Mrs. Martha Tib- 
betts, who came down from her 
home in Concord, N. II., accompa- 
nied by her daughter and two 
grandsons. 

Mr. Hamilton went out to dinner 
with Mrs. Tibbetts and her family, 
and during the afternoon had an- 
other visitor, Capt. Robert S. Ham- 
ilton, USAF, newly home from an 
18-months tour of duty in French 
Morocco. A birthday cake at sup- 
per and other visitors during the 
evening rounded out a pleasant day 
for Mr. Hamilton, who is out every 
day and in good health despite his 
advanced age. 


SUE MIGHT I1AS LEADING 

PART IN GUYS AND DOLLS 

Winchester friends of Sue Might, 
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert 
K. Might of Ledyard load, are look- 
ing forward t«» the Boston opening 
of “Guys and Dolls”, the Broadway 
musical hit, in which she has one 
of the leading parts. 

“Guys and Dolls” opens Christ* 
mas Day at the Schubert after a 
long run on Broadway. Miss Might, 
who left Bette Davis’ show, “Two’s 
Company”, to assume the role of 
the Salvation Army Doll in “Guys 
and Dolls” last March has achieved 
a real success in big time show 
business since she played in “Gen- 
tlemen Prefer Blondes” commenc- 
ing in August of I960. 

She had been in New York for 
two and one-half years previous to 
that, studying voice, dancing and 
dramatics after graduating from 
Winchester High, Colby Junior Col- 
lege and the Popular School of the 
New England Conservatory of 
Music. 

After “Gentlemen Prefer 
Blondes” Sue played 16 weeks in 
the Don Ameehe Show on TV be- 
fore joining the cast of “South 
Pacific”. Then followed an engage- 
ment at the Papermill Playhouse in 
New Jersey where she played Bian- 
ca in "Kiss Me Kate” and Julie in 
the immortal “Show Boat”. 

A lot of water has gone over the 
dam since Sue was attracting at- 
tention in high school vaudeville 
and Winton Club shows in Win- 
chester. She is definitely the local 
girl who has made good on Broad- 
way in the toughest competition in 
show business. 

Sue will be practically playing at 
home when her show opens in Bos- 
ton on the holiday and undoubtedly 
many of her friends and former 
classmates, as well as those who 
remember her dad as a lusty ban- 
joist and mellow bass in the old 
Phi Delta Quartet of bygone days 
will grasp the opportunity to see 
and hear her. 


FROM THE REGISTRAR! 


MISS BURACKER ENGAGED 


Rear Admiral William H. Bur- 
ucker, USN, (ret.) and Mrs. Bur- 
acker of Stratford road, announce 
the engagement of their daughter, 
Mias Dorothy Ladd Buracker, to 
Thomas Tongue, 2nd., son of Mr. 
Benjamin S. Tongue of Baltimore, 
Md., and the late Katharine Mac- 
Rae Tongue. 

Miss Buracker was graduated 
from Mt. Holyoke College in 1953 
and is doing graduate work at Rad- 
clifTe. Mr. Tongue, who served 
with the Marine Corps for two

and Lee University. 


With the largest registration of 
motor vehicles this year in the his- 
tory of the Commonwealth of Mass- 
achusetts, and with all signs point- 
ing to an increased registration for 
1954, we urge motorists to go to 
their nearest branch offices and get 
their 1954 certificates of registra- 
tion and windshield stickers, — and 
number plates, if required, — over 
the counter, in preference to mail- 
ing their applications to the main 
office. 

We cannot guarantee delivery of 
certificates or plates before Jan- 
uary first on applications received 
in the mail after December four- 
teenth. 

The Registry has provided more 
than 20 branch offices scattered 
throughout the state from Hyannis 
to North Adams to give this over 
the counter service, and we are ask- 
ing motorists to take advantage of 
it.

cation and make them a part of the 
University of Massachusetts. 

Both legislators agreed that they 
appreciated letters from their con- 
stituents and visits to the State 
House anv time after March. 


WINCHESTER IN 
NEW PLANNING DISTRICT 


A bill to set up a metropolitan 
planning district composed of Wo- 
burn and Winchestei and forty- 
four othei cities and towns in tin* 
Greater Boston Area was filed in 
the State Legislature last week. 
The bill was drawn up by the Re- . 
gional Planning Committee of the 
Greater Boston Area Council under j 
the leadership of John Hnrkness, 
an architect from Lexington, John 
T. Howard, at M.I.T. professor of 
planning from West Roxbury, and 
Charles Hoar, a professor of law 
at Harvard Law School who is from 
Cambridge. 

The proposed bill would set up , 
a division of metropolitan planning j 
within the Metropolitan Districts > 
Commission to devise a master j 
plan for the physical development 
of the district and provide planning 
services, upon request, for the 
member cities and towns. A metro- 
politan planning council would be 
established with a representative 
from each member city and town 
as well as five appointees of the 
Governor and a representative of 
the metropolitan agencies already 
in existence, such as the Metro- 
politan Transit Authority and the 
Mystic River Bridge Authority. 
This council would review the re- 
ports and proposals prepared by 
the division and recommend pro- 
grams of research relating to the 
physical development of the Great- 
er Boston Area. 

Jerome Lyle Rappaport, execu- 
tive director of the GBAC’, declared 
upon announcing the filing of the 
bill that it has become increasingly 
apparent that there is a desperate 
need for a planning agency which 
can integrate the efforts and en- 
courage the cooperation of all the 
cities and towns in the Greater 
Boston Area, all of which are es- 
sential members of one economic, 
transportation, -and social com- 
munity. There is today no master 
of development that governing offi- 
cials can look to as a guide to judge 
the beneficial effect of immediate 
capital improvements, he continued. 

Thus we have, Rappaport ex- 
plained, an arterial highway held 
up in mid air while engineers try 
to work out a compromise as to 
the best way is should leave Bos- 
ton. This same kind of compromise 
produced a four-lane rather than a 
six-lane embankment road, which 
already, one year after its opening, 
is overcrowded at rush hours. 

We will not solve the major eco- 
nomic, transportation and recrea- 
tion problems of the metropolitan 
Boston communities, Rappaport 
tionsaid, without continuing pro 
fessional advice and continuing co- 
operation and planning in their mu- 
tual interests by all the cities and 
towns in the Greater Boston area. 
This bill could begin a significant 
new era in Greater Boston’s his 
tory, he concluded. 

The cost of a metropolitan plan 
ning division within the M. D. C. 
would be borne fifty per cent by the 
Comonwealth and fifty per cent by 
the member cities and towns, as- 
sessed one-half based on popula- 
tion and one-half based on property 
valuation. The Research Committee 
of the GBAC estimated that expen- 
ditures in the first year would not 
exceed $30,000.

OLDEST POLICY 

A history of the insurance busi- 
ness would have to include an ac- 
count of bottomry, a form of ma- 
rine insurance believed to have been 
developed by the ancient Phoeni- 
cians. The information service of 
Employers Mutuals of Wausau, 
Wis., explains that bottomry Avas a 
system in which a shipowner ob- 
tained a loan on a ship and cargo. 
If the voyage Avas completed, the 
borrower repaid the loan at a high 
interest rate, but if the ship was 
lost, he paid nothing. 


Mr. and Mrs. Harold C. Wood, of 
Derry Village, New Hampshire, 
formerly of this town, announce

Leonard Victor Griffiths, Jr., of 4

University, School of Public Rela- 
tions and Communications, major- 
ing in radio and television. She is 
secretary of Alpha Epsilon Rho, 
national honorary radio-television 
fraternity, and broadcasts over 
WBUR-FM. 

Mr. Griffiths is also a senior at 
Boston University, at the College 
of Business Administration where 
he is majoring in business manage- 
ment. He is president of Alpha 
Kappa Psi, national business and 
social fraternity.

Last week I thought I had the 

pleasure of witnessing a remark- 
able piece of howling, which I did, 
hut you cun’t trust this new young 
! blood we have this year. Young 
Joe Riga who was not to he un- 
done howled a beautiful string with 
remarkable accuracy to the tune of 
152. Another job well done by a 
member of the S. O. I. It’s won- 
derful to see Mr. Riga and his sons 
bowling, they set a tine family ex- 
ample. 

As you know our teams bear 
names of tine Universities and 
Georgetown is one of our finest. 
The bowlers who do honor to this 
name whose standing should he in 
a better position than they are con- 
sists of Tony Saraco, last year’s 
champion who just can’t seem to get 
started. A1 DiMinico who can’t 
understand why he’s not doing bet- 
ter. Richard Giacalonc who expects 
to improve now that his brother 
“The Jeep” has taken him in hand. 
Fred LaTorella could do much bet- 
ter if he would take the barrels out 
of his pockets. Joe Dilorio one of 
the most conscientious bowlers on 
the team. Richard DiTesso, Sr., a 
newcomer hut gives his all. 

Whispers and comments heard 
around the alley. Is it true that 
there are 59 Italians and one high 
class Turk in the howling roster? 
It is believed by many that he is 
the power behind the screen. Sen. 
McCarthy to investigate this angle. 
Heard that the humane society 
having read the item in regards to 
“Vocci’s suckling pig”, took it upon 
themselves to send a vet to check 
his health. Report! No need to 
worry. I’ig deaf. Heard if Dorn 
Provinzano bends over any farther 
to bowl he’s going to he minus the 
tip of his nose. Will Costi Cuillo 
exhale so he can bowl. Ever since

one of the things he told me was that 
at night when his wonderful brood 
sits down to eat he counts noses 
to see if they are ull present. One 
night he counted two noses too 
many. 

He thought he had amnesia for

The first of these patents, which 
is entitled “Process For Improving

treatment of fabrics containing

by which the resistance of these 
fabrics to felting and shrinking 
may be increased in a manner that 
avoids the limitations of methods

temperature of from about 200 L> 
325 degrees Fahrenheit foi a period 
of from about live to fifteen minutes 
to render the added material in- 
soluble in the fabric. In his patent 
specifications, Mr. Folkeis cites 
numerous examples which show the 
effectiveness of his practice. 

Mr. Folkeis’ second invention 
deals with methods <>f finishing tex- 
tile fabrics containing cellulosic 
yarns or filaments. These fabrics 
may be made of cotton or of syn- 
thetic threads such as rayon; and, 
in accordance with Mr. Folkeis’ 
system, they are treated with small 
amounts of a potentially resinous 
substance which provides them with 
a crisp and permanently stiffened 
finish, improved dimensional stab- 
ility and good tensile strength. 

Moth of these patents have been 
assigned to Monsanto Chemical 
Company.

Mi Rogers introduced Mr. Har-

who added his best wishes to these 
students of “high calibre who bad 
pleased everyone and done a suc- 
cessful and competent job”. He 
i said that the Hospital is depending 
on them to continue in the respon- 
sible work that they are doing. 

Mi Rogers also introduced the 
chairman of the Nursing Commit- 
tee. Miss Ruby Willis, who brought 
the greetings of the Board of Trus- 
tees. 

The class then presented Miss 
Rogers and Mrs. Mullee with 
charming corsages and invited them

night. Coffee was served by the 
members of the Nursing Commit-

This occasion brought to a close 
flu* second such group training. It 
proved again the wisdom of the 
Hospital in providing worthwhile 
occupation for public spirited and 
able women. It also proved the 
wisdom of providing an addition to 
the nursing team that relieves pres- 
sure «m the graduate nurse and en- 
ables the Hospital to give the pa- 
tients all the care and service that 
their comfort requires? The non

very important part of the present 
day Hospital

CHRISTMAS PREPARATION 


The pastor and members of the 
Crawford Memorial Methodist 
Church are in the midst of plans for 
the special Christmas services. 
Perhaps the most important change 
will be the two services to he held 
on Christmas Sunday. The first 
service will be at 9:30 a. m. and the 
second service at the usual hour, 
10:45. The services will he very 
similar with the exception of abbre- 
viations. 

The Christmas Eve service will 
he at 11 p. m. This has come to be 
one of the high light services of the 
year as evidenced by the enthu- 
siasm and attendance. It has be- 
come a wonderful experience to see 
several hundred people in a double 
circle around the church, on the 
platform and around the altar at 
the midnight hour, with lighted 
candles, welcoming in the first mo- 
ment of Christmas morn to the 
words and tune of “Silent Night, 
Holy Night.” Both the Junior and 
Senior Choirs will assist and the 
pastor will bring the meditation. 
Members and friends of the com- 
munity are most cordially invited 
to share in this high point of the 
Christmas season.

SUPPLIES IN BLOOD CENTERS 
VERY LOW 


A critical situation has developed 
in the Boston area in the last few 
weeks. The supplies of blood in 
the blood centers and in the hos- 
pitals in the greater Boston area 
are very low and in some cases 
completely empty. 

Our own Winchester hospital was 
in need of blood one day last week 


situation, and at best it is incon- 
venient for the patient, doctor, and 
hospital involved. 

In addition to this great need in 
civilian hospitals, blood is still ur- 
gently needed and being sent to 
military hospitals here and over 
seas. 

So call the Red Cross office today 
(Winchester 6-2300) and make 
your appointment with the Red 
Cross Bloodmobile when it is in 
Winchester, Monday, December 14. 
Let’s show ourselves and the metro- 
politan area that the residents of 


Parents, d,IUr«,._ teachers and | ™djrhen ^ | Winchester not only appreciate. the 


officers of the Sunday School will 
meet Santa next Friday, at the send out here until the late after- 
Christmas party for the children, noon when the Bloodmobile would 
C. Raymond Chase, the Sunday : come in from one of the commu- 
School Superintendent will he in nities. The need at our hospital 
charge and a special program is be- was for four pints. The blood even- 
ing prepared. ter was able to supply only two 

1 pints. 

This incident certainly shows the 
Ex-Selectman Morris B. Kerr of dire need for the public to rise to 
the Winchester Arms has been a this crisis. Operations are being 
patient at the Phillips House for delayed in all the hospitals until 
the past ten days. He is reported the blood necessary can he obtained, 
as getting along nicely. Sometimes this creates a critical 


great need for blood but are willing 
to do something about it. 

Roll up your sleeve and come to 
the First Congregational Church 
on Monday.

THE WINCHESTER, MASS., STAR. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 11, 195.1 


'THE FORTUNE TELLER- 
PRESENTED BY H S. CAST 


Victor Herbert’s melodies came 
to the stage of the high school au- 
ditorium last Friday and Saturday 
evenings as a high school cast pre- 
sented "The Fortune Teller” to 
capacity audiences. Weeks of re- 
heat sing by members of the com- 
bined Glee Clubs and Curtain and 
Cue under the direction of Miss 
Kleanor Anifantis and Mr. Thomas 
Morse were amply rewarded by per- 
formances which many in the en- 
thusiastic audiences would have 
termed brilliant for young uma- 
teu rs. 

In the opinion of some, the sing- 
ing of the choruses was the out- 
standing feature of the operetta; 
to others, the acting and singing of 
principals was the most satisfying. 
All enjoyed the dancing of the bal- 
let groups. Another noteworthy 
feature was the manner in which 
the large cast handled itself in the 
limited area of the high school 
stage. Miss Anifantis. Mr. Morse, 
and their assistants deserve high 
praise for the over-all excellence of 
the show, and it is to he hoped that 
four years will not pass again be- 
fore another will he presented. 

The story of "The Fortune Tell- 
er,” revolving uhout the disappear- 
ance of a winning lottery ticket and 
the attempts of the commandant of 
the secret police of Livonia to re- 
trieve it, is entirely inconsequential, 
as is that of most operettas. It 
does, however, serve to bring to- 
gether some grand singing and 
dancing combinations — tin* Grand 
Opera Chorus and Ballet, the gypsy 
hand, and the Livonian Hussars. 
The setting for the show is the ter- 
race of Count Berezowski’s chateau, 
whither the Count has invited mem- 
bers of the Grand Opera Ballet in 
an effort to secure his lost lottery 
ticket. As the Count, John Swazey 
remained faithful to the musical 
comedy conception of a commissar 
of the secret police as a pompous, 
blustering buffoon. Seth Weston 
more than once stopped the show 
with his superb characterization of 
Fresco, the dandified yet resource- 
ful ballet master. 

Among the singing principals 
Louise Orgettas, as Musette the 
gypsy gill, brought unusual power 
and maturity of voice to her songs, 
especially "Romany Life”. "In 
This World of Fashion”, her duet 
with Chris Adams, was also notable. 
As the stalwart Captain Ladislaus, 
Chris was convincing in a demand- 
ing role. His songs with the Hus- 
sar chorus added a stirring military 
touch, while his duet, "Only in the 
Play,” with Barbara Hickey( Ma- 
dame Pompon) was a droll bit, well- 
liked by the audience. 

Connie Snelling, Fresco’s "kit- 
ten”, beloved by Ladislaus yet 
sought by C o u n t Berezowski, 
brought a pleasing voice and viva- 
cious manner to her role. Her song, 
"Always Do As People Say You 
Should”, was delightful. Musette’s' 
gypsy lover, was well-played by 
Brad Johnson, whose best moments 
came as he sang the beautiful 
"Gypsy Love Song”. Roland Gail- 
itis. as Musette’s rough and mer- 
cenary father, seemed especially 
good. The other principals, Nancy 
Fletcher, Barbara Katon, Nancy 
Samarco, Renner Johnston, Jon 
McCarthy, Stanley Mullen, and 
Quentin Robert, handled their 
smaller roles very creditably. 

Adding to the color and move- 
ment of the operetta were the 
dances by the ballet and gypsy 
group. Barbara Hottel’s original 
dances, as well as her solo number, 
were well-conceived and executed. 

The music of "The Fortune Tell- 
er” deserves fine playing, and that 
it received from the small ensemble 
composed of Mr. Theodore Janner, 
violin; Gretchen Luitwieler, drums; 
and Stephen Dunn, trumpet; who 
added their effects to the duo piano 
team. Mr. Walter Russell was at 
one piano, while Jock Willis and 
Judith Fowler shared the other. 

Assisting Miss Anifantis and Mr. 
Morse in the production were two 
practice teachers from Sargent, 
Miss Claire Loughlin and Miss Con- 
stance Porter. Miss LaVerne 
Baker, u student at the Boston Con- 
servatory, helped with the dance re- 
hearsals. Costumes were under the 
charge of Miss Mildred Barnes, 
Miss Marian Bernhoft, and Miss 
Florence Wolk. Miss Louise Cone 
supervised the ticket sale, Mr. 
Frank Weafer was in charge of the 
ushers, and Mr. Raymond Hayward 
was business manager. 

The indispensable stage crew 


was composed of Ted Mansfield, 
tagf manager; and Roger Hauck, 
Dann Lewis, and Gardner Smith. 
Handling the mnke-up. a gargan- 
tuan task with a cast this size, was 
Paul Planchet, who was assisted by 
Sheila Gallivan, Carol Brown, San 
dm Chapman, and Jane Adams.

H. S. SPORTS ASSEMBLY 

Members of the fall sports teams 
received their awards at the ath- 
letic assembly on December 4, when 
the girls field hockey and boys’ 
cross country teams shared honors 
with the football men. Presiding 
at the assembly was A. A. pres- 
Dennis Doucette, and the 
principal speakers were coaches; 
Alildred Barnes, Thomas Morse, Ed 
Burns, and Henry Knowlton. 

As the first speaker, Coach 
Morse described vividly the rigors 
of cross country, and he praised 
his team for its courage and per- 
sistence. He especially noted the 
outstanding record of Lou Farrell. 
At the conclusion of his remarks, 
captain John Becker announced that 
next year’s team will have as co- 
e iptains, Dick Borggaard and Lou 
Farrell. 

Making her first appearance at 
an awards assembly, Coach Barnes 
paid warm tribute to the sports- 
manship and cooperative spirit of 
the girls on the field hockey squad. 
Captain Alison Hersey stated that 
Dorothy Pratt has been elected to 
serve as team captain for the 1954 
season. As coach of freshman 
football, Coach Burns recalled sev- 
eral of the more humorous episodes 
of the past season before reading 
the list of freshman numeral win- 
ners. 

In his remarks to the assembly, 
Coach Knowlton took the occasion 
to publicly thank all of the people 
coaches, trainers, managers, 
b; nd members, cheerleaders, and 
others who helped to make the 
past season so successful. He 
praised the junior varsity for its 
stalwart role as opposition for the 
varsity. Of the "big boys” he said 
that never in his years of coaching 
has lie worked with a more willing, 
cooperative team. Big John Rior- 
di n f dlowed with an announcement 
that Mike Murphy will he next sea- 
son’s captain; that the choice was 
mightly popular could he seen from 
the applause of the student body.

HOME FROM HOSPITAL 


Gordon Foskitt, son of Mr. and 
Mrs. George R. Foskitt of 49 
Forest street, has returned home 
from the Winchester Hospital 
where he was for four weeks un- 
dergoing treatment for severe in- 
juries sustained when he caught 
his left thumb and forefinger in a 
paper-roller at his place of em- 
ployment. Three grafting oper- 
ations were necessary together 
with the amputation of his thumb 
at the first joint. 

Gordon wishes through the Star 
to thank his many friends for their 
gifts and other remembrances, and 
above all, for their encouragement 
which meant so much to him while 
lie was in the hospital.

TIu* safe stolen from the Station 
Cleaners last August was found 
Sunday morning in the Bedford 
woods by hoys hunting there. 

They notified the Bedford Police

K of C CHRISTMAS PARTY 

Sunday, December 20th, is the 
date of the Winchester Knights of 
Columbus annual Christmas Party 
for children of members and their 
guests. There will be movies for 
the youngsters, with candy and ice 
crenm, and of course, Santa Claus 
himself, with his message of cheer 
for all the boys and girls. 

Advocate John Dolan is chairman 
of arrangements with a large com- 
mittee to assist him in insuring that 
all the young people have one of 
the grandest times they have ever 
had. It would not be a Christmas 
. Party without Carols, so of course 
this feature will be much in evid- 
dence. Members are asked to re- 
mind their children that they are 
invited to the party. 

At the recent Council meeting 
Chairman John Mulrennan of the 
House Committee made his report 
which was a fine, concise statement 
eliciting favorable comment from 
the membership present. A mes- 
sage was read from Brother Tom 
Parsons thanking the Council for 
their remembrance of him during 
his illness. The Council hopes that 


Officers and Members journed to 
Dedham last Sunday evening to pay 
their own and the Council’s respects 
to the Dad of Ohancelor Vin Erhard 
who passed away Friday, Decem- 
ber 4th. Included were Grand 
Knight John Nowell, who also at- 
tended the funeral, P. G. K. Harry 
Boyle; I). G. K. Jim Mown; Record- 
ing Secretary Harry Bennett; Ed- 
die Quill; Financial Secretary Fran- 
cis Fisher; Warden Tom Gramzow. 


SEATS RESERVED 
FOR ALL HOME HOOP GAMES 


The Knights are very proud that 
their organization has sponsored 
the microfilming of more than 40,- 
000 documents in the Vatican Li- 
brary. This will make available to 
scholars for the first time, priceless 
writings on art, religion, medicine, 
science and philosophy. 

IN COLLEGE PLAY 


Harold K. Quigley of 30 Westley 
street, has a supporting role in the 
annual production of the Drew For- 
esters, undergraduate dramatics 
group at Drew University. The 
play, Shakespeare’s “Henry VIII,” 
is being given Wednesday, Friday 
and Saturday nights this week. 

A graduate of Winchester High 
School, Quigley is a sophomore in 
the College of Liberal Arts at 
Drew. 



HOLIDAYS 
COMING 

And That Means Work 

It means work especially for the housewife who has to wash 
all the extra linen, the table cloths, napkins, extra sheets and 
the thousand other things which get soiled with large meals and 
many people in the house. 

Make it a real holiday and send those hard-to-do 
articles to us — and enjoy your holidays.

— Same Owner-Management Since 1909 — 


At a recent meeting of the high 
school athletic authorities, plans 
Were completed for hnndling the 
home-game ticket problem, which 
during the past three or four years 
has increased steadily because of 
the growing popularity of the game 
and the excellent record of the 
home team. Everyone likes to 
watch a winner, and Winchester 
has lidded a winning basketball 
team. 

With a very limited seating ca- 
pacity in the school gymnasium, 
only a portion of those who would 
like to attend night games can be 
accommodated. Last season an ex- 
periment with adult season tickets 
was fairly successful. This season 
all seats in the gymnasium will be 
reserved seats of all home night 
games. In addition, season tickets 
for home games may be purchased 
in advance, assuring the holder of 
having the same seat for each 
game and saving him from coming 
early to get his seat. Standing-room 
admissions will be limited to thirty 
per game, and will be put on sale 
on the night of the game only after 
all seats have been sold. About 
twenty-five per cent of the total 
number of seats will be offered to 
the visiting school in advance of 
the game. Any such tickets turned 
back will he on sale the night of 
the game at the door. 

Reserved seats for single games 
and season tickets for all home 
[ games may be ordered now by 
| phone or by mail or through stu- 
I dents at the high school. Phone: 

; Winchester (>-0141. Address mail 
I orders to Norton Demsey, Winches- 
ter High School. 

The total number of reserved 
j scats for adults is seventy-six 
scats. Those who wish to take ad- 
vantage of Ibis plan should get 
their orders in as soon as possible 
The home schedule of night games 
is as follows: 

Dec. 11 — Arlington, Friday eve- 
ning 

Dec. 23 — Wellesley, Wednesday 
evening 

Dec. 30 — Melrose, Wednesday 
evening 

Jan. 15 — Belmont, Friday eve- 
ning 

Jan. 20 — Reading, Friday eve 
ning 

Feb. 10, — Stoneham, Friday eve- 
ning 

Mar. 5 — Woburn, Friday eve 
ning 

Each night there will be both a 
varsity game and a second-team 
game. Second-team games start at 
seven- thirty p. m.

JUNIOR HIGH FELLOWSHIP 


THE WINN LIBRARY 


A notable gift from Arthur L. 
Winn, Goidon alumnus of the class 
of 1803 and Trustee since 1037, 
makes possible the erection on the 
new Princemere campus of the 
Winn Library, the first of four new 
major buildings authorized by the 
Trustees of Gordon College at the 
annual meeting of the Board. Mr. 
Winn’s gift is the largest of his 
benefactions to Gordon. Being 
vitally interested in many Christian 
and Christian education projects, be 
has contributed generously to Gor- 
don. 

Until his retirement from busi- 
ness he was one of the owners of 
the J. H. Winn Sons Company of 
Winchester, Mass. His genuine 
sincerity, quiet humility and splen 
did business capabilities have made 
him a valued member of the Board 
of Trustees. He is also a highly 
esteemed member of the First Bap- 
tist Church in Winchester. 

The Winn Library, which will 
have a capacity of 100,000 volumes t 
will he the College Library build- 
ing. The other buildings to be 
erected at this time are the admin 
istration building and two major 
dormitory units. Six of the build- 
ings now on the 1,000 acre campus 
are presently being used by Gordon 
Divinity School. The four new 
buildings will enable the College 
also to be located on the new cam- 
pus. 

Mr. Winn’s generous and sacri- 
ficial gift is the first of a consider- 
able number of large gifts that will 
lie needed to complete the develop 
mont program foreseen by the Gor- 
don Relocation Fund. 

The new campus development 
program is an attempt on the part 
of the Trustees of Gordon to meet 
the increased demand upon us to 
supply evangelical Christian minis- 
ters for churches in New Fngland 
and across the nation and trained 
Christian leaders in business and 
the professions. 

T. Leonard Lewis, President. 

Ed. Note: Mr. Lewis is president 
of Gordon College. 


On Friday evening, December 11, 
from 7:30 to 10:00, the Junior High 
Fellowship of the First Congrega- 
tional Church will hold a dance in 
Chidley Hall. Half of the time will 
be given to round dancing, and half 
to square dancing with High School 
Coach Meurling as the caller. Dec- 
orating of the hall will be done by i 
Claudia Brush, Sue Hambly, Cyn- 
thia Dunn. John Curtis, Bob Coo- 
per, Tim Reynolds and Phil Poll- 
ard. Refreshments will be in 
charge of Cynthia Dunn and Sue 
Hambly. Tickets may be obtained 
from Sally Kimball, Bunny Brown 
and Martha Fish. 

Chaperones for the evening will 
he Mr. and Mrs. W. McHenry 
Browne, Mr. and Mrs. Frank B. 
Kelley, Jr., and Mr. and Mrs. Wil- 
liam Kimball.

THE FORTNIGHTLY 


LITERATURE COMMITTEE 


Under the direction of Mrs. 
Blanche S. Barnard, chairman, 
members and guests of the Liter- 
ature Committee met Monday 
afternoon, December 7, in the 
Public Library. 

Miss Eva M. Sherman rend an 
excellent paper on “Taylor Cald- 
well”, starting with a biographical 
sketch of the author’s life, then 
giving a brief review of her books, 
having rend eleven of them. All 
are character novels with historical 
backgrounds, much detail being 
given and a great deal of interest 
shown in industry and politics. 
However, hatred seems to dominate 
these books as well as abnormal 
characters. And so, although not 
all pleasant reading, Miss Caldwell 
is a good story teller and it seems, 
is trying to impress and warn the 
public of the pitfalls in national 
politics and industry as well as in 
their private lives. 

Mrs. Frank Evans opened the 
meeting with a delightful review of 
“Uncle Victory” by Louise Hall 
Tharp, which is a biography of 
Horace Mann, a constant crusader 
for free education and the develop- 
ment of educational institutions 
who spent the greater part of his 
life in New England. 


FASHION SHOW

clock, parents of high school girls

Intramural Council at the high 
school auditorium. A Christmas 
theme will prevail throughout the 
show which will feature sport, 
school, and evening clothes.

along the cause, and always there 
when needed, were Wings Jan 
Graves and Marilyn Dyer. Inners 
Dianne McNeil anti Betty Ann Hag- 
gerty, und Center Sue Donnell were 
indispensable to the team. 

The defense was equally strong 
defending the goal, as the forwards 
were attacking it, as shown by the 
fact that in 7 games only 4 goals 
were scored against them. Half- 
backs Judie Higgins, Marty Hal- 
loran and Sally Cunninghum were 
in a big way responsible for the 
scoring, as well as the defensive 
success, by keeping the Dull fed 
to the forward line at all times. 
Defending the goal was left to the 
two fullbacks, Sheila Gallivan and 
Peg McNally, and Goalies Nancy 
Gail llandford and Nancy Morse, 
all of whom did a good job of it. 

At the annual award assembly 
the varsity was awarded their 
charms, silver hockey sticks, and 
next year’s varsity captain was an 
nounccd. J)otti«* Pratt, left fullback 
of the J.Y.’s this year, will be the 
captain of next year’s girls’ field 
hockey team.

THANKS FROM RED FEATHER 

1 Salisbury street 

Winchester, Mass. 

December 7, 1953 
Editor of the Star: 

May I have the opportunity 
' through your paper to express my 
appreciation to the workers in the 
1 954 Winchester Red Feather Cam- 
paign ? 

Seven hundred Winchester peo- 
ple joined efforts to solicit contri- 
butions from all the homes, stores, 
and businesses in town for the sup- 
port of the over 300 Red Feather 
agencies of Greater Boston, includ- 
ing Winchester’s own six agencies. 

The $50,200 raised to date, 
though short of our goal of $59,800, 
compares favorably with last 
year’s excellent record of $56,000. 

Every faithful worker may take 
pride in his unselfish part in a 
worthwhile cause. 

Arthur W. Pratt, 

Winchester Community Chairman 
P.S. Let me also thank the Star 
for their patient and careful pub- 
lishing of pictures and publicity 
material submitted from time to 
time during the campaign 
A. W. P. 



Every once in a while the Board 
of Assessors gets into a spot be- 
cause of laws which they have no 
hand in framing but which they are 
required to enforce. Our Board has 
been warned by the Department of 
Corporations and Taxation that 
they must assess a personal prop- 
erty tax on non-residents of the 
town, and that it may be that non 
residents should also pay tuition 
for their children who attend the 
Winchester schools. Non residents 
are persons who live in Winchester, 
but for one reason or another, have 
their legal address and pay their 
poll taxes elsewhere, perhaps in an- 
other state. Residents of Winches- 
ter now' enjoy a $5,000 exemption 
for personal property, which means 
that very few pay a personal prop- 
erty tax in town. 

Every so often the Star has to 
publish its policy with regard to 
communications sent to the paper. 
They must be signed by the writer 
and have his address if we are to 
publish them, though the name and 
address need not be printed if the 
writer for any reason does not wish 
them to appear with the letter. It 
is our personal opinion that unsign- 
ed letters carry little weight, but 
at the same time we can under- 
stand a reluctance to make one’s 
identity known in some instances. 
This week we received two com- 
munications, one concerning the 
grade crossing and the other pick- 
ing an all time Winchester High 
School football team. Neither 
communication was signed, so 
neither is being published. In the 
case of the honorary team we es- 
pecially regret our inability to 
print it, for it is provocative and 
would undoubtedly have aroused 
comment, from football fans, both 
favorable and unfavorable. So, 
correspondents, sign your letters if 
you want them used. We must 
know where a letter is coming from 
before we will print it in our 
columns. 


THIS IS THE SITUATION 

Editor of the Star: 

Two weeks ago an advertisement 
appeared in The Star for a Movie 
Review Series, presented by the 
Mothers’ Association of Winches- 
ter, to benefit the Winchester 
Scholarship Foundation. 

Many tickets are sold to the 
wonderfully civic-minded people of 
Winchester, and I should like to 
explain just what the situation is 
this time. 

This benefit is the project of the 
Ways and Means Committee of the 
“Central Board”; and it is custom- 
ary to turn over the entire net pro- 
ceeds to the Scholarship Found- 
ation, reserving only $100 for next 
year’s committee to work with. 

The “Central Board” is the gov- 
erning board of the Mothers’ Asso- 
ciation, in the individual school 
chapters of which are automatic- 
ally enrolled all mothers of children 
in the elementary, junior and senior 
high schools, whether or not they 
pay dues. Officers of the Associa- 
tion, committee chairmen, and 
presidents, past presidents and sec- 
retaries of all chapters are mem- 
bers of the “Central Board”, which 
is directly responsible for the co- 
ordinated money raising event for 
the Winchester Scholarship Foun- 
dation, originated by the Mothers' 
Association, and to which all chap- 
ters also contribute individually. 


ANOTHER IDEA FOR CHRISTMAS 


Editor of the Star: 

May I enjoy a brief space in your 
valued paper to convey to shoppers, 
young and old. converging on the 
center of Winchester during these 
busy days to traverse the shopping 
area, a fervent Christmas plea for 
clean streets, highways, and alleys? 

Sometime ago, the Park Depart- 
ment gave priority on the list of 
each day’s jobs to the cleaning of 
the area of the center. Shall we 
appreciate their efforts nnd lend a 
helpful hand with a joyous Christ- 
mas spirit, and continue it beyond 
the immediate confines of the shop- 
ping district into our very homes 
by refraining from scattering small 
hits of trash along the sidewalks 
and larger ones on the highways? 

Choristers around our community 
Christmas tree, I hope a clean and 
beautiful Common will greet you 
on Christmas Eve. A Merry Christ- 
mas to all, and thank you.

SELF-GOVERNING PUERTO RICO 
SPURRED BY NEW INDUSTRIES 

Autonomy and industry are 
marching forward together in 
Puerto Rico. 

Now in its second year of United 
States Commonwealth status, the 
crowded Caribbean island has rais- 
ed employment 25 per cent in the 
last decade. National income has 
doubled, and per capita income is 
up 10 per cent. More than 150 
newly established plants turn out 
textiles, toys, lenses, shoes, Christ- 
mas-tree ornaments and many 
other products. 

Job Shortage 

With a population density match- 
ing that of New Jersey, Puerto 
Rico has long been plagued with 
unemployment, says the National 
Geographic Society. Lack of arable 
land and natural resources has 
further handicapped its economy. 
The island produces only half its 
food requirements. 

Puerto Rico is the eastern anchor 
of the Greater Antilles chain of 
West Indies islands. Its 2,250,000 
inhabitants are squeezed into 3,436 
square miles. Among American 
states and territories, only Rhode 
Island has more persons per square 
mile. 

The island’s precious soil is in- 
tensively cultivated from tin* shores 
to the summits of its 4,000-foot- 
high mountains. Sugarcane is the 
major crop, sugar production aver- 
aging about one million tons an- 
nually. Before new businesses 
came in from the mainland, four 
major industries — sugar process- 
ing, needlework, tobacco, and rum

— accounted for 75 per cent of 
manufacturing employment. 

Puerto Rico’s population has 
doubled since 1898, the year Spain 
relinquished its four centuries of 
rule to the United States. Spanish 
is the language of the people, but 
English is common in business and 
government. 

In 1917, territorial status brought 
U. S. citizenship to Puerto Ricans. 
On July 25, 1952, the island became 
a self-governing Commonwealth. A 
new constitution, approved by the 
U. S. Congress and President, put 
the 100-mile-long island's internal 
affairs completely in the hands of 
its elected lawmakers. The way is 
left open for Puerto Rico to be- 
come a state in the Union later if it 
desires. 

Columbus Discovery 

Puerto Rico means “rich port”. 
It is the only land under the Amer- 
ican Hag on which Columbus set 
foot. Landing there on November 
19, 1493, during his second voyage, 
he claimed it for Spain. 

San Juan, the capital, is the old- 
est city in the new world under the 
Stars and Stripes. It was estab- 
lished in 1610, a half century be- 
fore St. Augustine, Florida. With 
a 1950 population of 224,767, it is 
second only to Ilavanu among 
Caribbean cities. The island's 
principal port, it handles most of 
Puerto Rico’s $250 million exports 
and $400 million imports annually. 

Although Puerto Rico lies within 
the tropics, the island enjoys a per- 
petually springlike climate. Mean 
annual temperature is a mild 75 
degrees. Ocean breezes sweeping 
across the mountains from the cool 
North Atlantic temper the heat. 
Flowers bloom the year around. 

The island’s healthful climate 
and natural beauty have made 
tourism a leading industry. In 
1951-52, 98,000 visitors spent almost 
$17 million in Puerto Rico.

The 


FIRE LOSSES INCREASE 

Fire losses of all insurance com- 
panies in 1952 were $718,524,665, 
representing an increase over 1951 
of 7.2 per cent, the information 
service of Employers Mutuals of 
Wausau, reports.

BRINGS RESULTS 


United States bought its 
first military aircraft in 1909, six 
years after the Wright Brothers 
made the first airplane flight, says 
the National Geographic Society. 
In 1911 Congress made the first 
aviation appropriation: $125,000. 

Japan’s Inland Sea, one of the 
most beautiful waterways in the 
world, is in places one of the most 
dangerous, says the National Geo- 
graphic Society. Tides twice a day 
rush in and out through a labyrinth 
of islands, reefs and hidden rocks, 
creating tide rips and whirlpools.

As its meaning she made clear.

QUEEN TO CIRCLE GLOBE 
ON COMMONWEALTH TOUR 

Queen Elizabeth II, who hold a 
symbolic golden orb during her 
coronation ceremonies last June, 
will girdle the globe itself during 
a 60,000-mile royal tour beginning 
November 2,‘C 

The young queen and her hus- 
band, Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, 
will see areas of the British Com- 
monwealth never before visited by 
their ruling monarch. It will he 
the first time in history that a 
reigning British sovereign has 
traveled completely around the 
world, says the National Geogra- 
phic Society. 

Fly To West Indies 

The royal couple will fly first to 
Bermuda, then to Jamaica, Britain’s 
largest West Indian colony. There 
they will meet officials of other 
British Caribbean possessions ami 
see mementos of the English sea j 
heroes, Rodney and Nelson, as well 1 
as of Jamaica’s pirate-governor 
Henry Morgan. 

American citizens will have an 
opportunity to see them when the 
liner Gothic takes them through 
the Panama canal bound for the 
Fiji and Tonga Islands in the Paci- 
fic north of New Zealand. 

In the British-owned Fijis, once 
a land of cannibals, the Queen will 
witness South Sea Island pag- 
eantry, participate in ancient 
rituals and receive gifts of whales’ 
teeth, Fijian tokens of honor. 

Coral islets ruled by their own 
“king”, descendant of the Scottish 
seafarer who first settled them, will 
be the next stop. These are the 
Cocos or Keeling Islands in the In- 
dian Ocean. 

From there the Gothic will sail to 
Ceylon, latest Commonwealth coun- 
try to attain full self-government. 
An 11-day stay, during which 
Elizabeth will observe her 28th 
birthday, will include tours of an- 
cient ruins and modern develop- 
ments amid Ceylon’s tropical jun- 
gles and cool highlands. 

Return To Africa 

Nearing Arabia, the Queen will 
leave ship at Aden, where guns 
thundered for George V en route to 
his Indian crowning in 1911. There 
she will hoard a plane for Africa, 
where she interrupted a previous 
tour upon the death of her father, 
King George VI, in 1952. 

I In Uganda, between Lake Vic- 
toria and the Ruwenzori Mountains, 
Queen Elizabeth will dedicate an 
important Nile River dam. At 
Tobruk, Libya, scene of British 
gallantry in World War II desert 
fighting, she expects to meet King 
Idris of Libya, monarch of the 
world’s newest kingdom. Then she 
will hoard the new royal yacht 
Britannia for Britain’s Mediterra- 
nean strongholds of Malta and 
Gibraltar and finally home to Buck- 
ingham Palace. 

Queens Will Meet 

Elizabeth will repay a queenly 
cell at the Tonga or Friendly 
Islands, which are under British 
protection. Tall Queen Salote of 
Tonga, last remaining South Seas 
monarch, was a popular guest at 
Queen Elizabeth’s coronation. The 
Polynesian queen will in turn be 
Elizabeth’s hostess at the Tongan 
capital, Nuku’alofa. 

Queen Elizabeth will broadcast 
her Christmas message to the Com- 
monwealth from Auckland during a 
38-day tour of New Zealand. She 
will open a special session of Par- 
liament at Wellington, the capital, 
and will see 42 other New Zealand 
towns and cities on the two big 
Pacific islands. 

Five thousand Maori tribesmen 
plan to welcome her at Rotorua in 
the hot springs district of North 
Island. She will visit nearby Wai- 
tangi, lit by myriad glowworms. 

Australian Tour 

From New Zealand’s South Is- 
land, the Queen and Duke will sail 
to Sydney, Australia, for a two- 
month, 14,450-mile tour of the is- 
land continent, twice visited by 
Philip while in Navy service. Eliz- 
abeth, recently given the specific 
title of Queen of Australia, will 
open Parliament at Canberra. As 
Duke of York, her father in 1927 
opened the the first Parliament held 
in the present capital. 

The monarch will also go to 
Queensland, visiting the state’s 
main city, Brisbane; to Melbourne 
in Victoria; to Australia’s “little 
sister” island of Tasmania, where 
scenery and climate resemble that 
of England; and to Adelaide, South 
Australia. Other places on the 
schedule include the mining center 
of Kargoorlie and the city of Perth.

WHO'S AN UNDERWRITER! 

Although the term “underwriter” 
today refers to the employee of an 
insurance company who examines 
a policy risk, in early times it re- 
ferred to the person who signed his 
name under the insurance contract. 
The information service of the Em- 
ployers Mutuals of Wausau, Wis., 
explains that in the early days of 
the business, insurance policies 
were written only by individuals, 
known as “underwriters.” 


NEW INSURANCE HIGH 

The year 1952 established an all 
time record for the sale of each of 
the major types of insurance — 
life, fire, and casualty — according 
to the information service of Em- 
ployers Mutuals of Wausau, Wis. 


Men have walked to the North 
Pole, have flown there by dirigible 
and airplane. In 1932 an Austra- 
lian polar explorer, Sir George 
I Hubert Wilkins, set out to cross the 
Pole beneath the Arctic icecap by 
submarine. He was turned back by 
mechanical difficulties aboard his 
undersea boat, the “Nautilus,” and 
I never repeated the attempt.

CANSO CAUSEWAY 
MAY BE OPENED IN 1954 

The Canso Causeway, projected 
first land link between Cape Breton 
Island and the rest of Nova Scotia, 
may be ready for road and rail 
traffic next year. 

Hitherto all traffic has crossed 
the narrow Strait of Canso by 
ferry, reports the National Geo- 
graphic Society. The first of these 
was established in 1883. But from 
January to April each year, boat 
schedules were sometimes inter- 
rupted by ice in the Strait. 

The ever-increasing importance 
of Cape Breton Island both as va- 
cation land and seat of industry 
dictated construction of the $22,- 
800,000 causeway. 

Highlands National Park, cover- 
ing 390 square miles on the north- 
ern end of the Island, may receive 
as many as 35,000 visitors a year. 
Mines in the Sydney area, some of 
them extending four miles out un- 
der the Atlantic Ocean, annually 
produce 5,000,000 tons of coal. Part 
is used in huge nearby iron and 
steel mills. 

As from the very beginning, fish- 
ing is a major Cape Breton in- 
dustry. Fish may have attracted 
Norse sea rovers who knew about 
the Island as early as the 10th cen- 
tury. Basque fishermen may have 
given it its name 100 years before 
Columbus discovered America. 
John Cabot claimed it in 1497 for 
England. 

Of all the ports on the Atlantic 
seaboard, those of Cape Breton are 
nearest the shipping centers of 
Europe, Africa and South America. 
This, coupled with the Island’s 
strategic position commanding the 
entrance to the St. Lawrence River, 
brought the French and British in- 
to prolonged battle for its posses- 
sion. 

Before the American Revolution 
erupted, England’s American col- 
onists helped her crush French 
power on Cape Breton. The final 
blow was the leveling of Fort 
Louisburg, France’s “impregnable” 
bastion. 

After that, settlers poured in 
from the Highlands of Scotland. 
Their descendants still speak Gaelic 
and keep alive the tradition of the 
Highland Games. A few Islanders 
descend from the Acadians, whose 
expulsion from the Nova Scotian 
mainland in 1755 gave Henry 
Wadsworth Longfellow the theme 
for his poem “Evangeline.” 

Ancient Cape Breton has played 
its part in modern scientific dis- 
covery. At his Beinn Bhreagh es- 
tate near Baddeck on the salt lakes 
of Bras d’Or, Alexander Graham 
Bell, inventor of the telephone, ex- 
perimented with airplanes, fast 
boats and agriculture. 

The first successful Atlantic 
cable was landed at Cape North in 
18G7. The first airplane flight in 
the British Empire was made in 
1909 over the Lakes by J. A. D. 
McGurdy, who had worked with I)r. 
Bell. In 1902, a radio station on 
Cape Breton Island received the 
first wireless message transmitted 
from Europe.

INSURANCE 4,000 YEARS AGO 

How old is the insurance busi- 
ness? The information service of 
The Employers Mutual of Wausau, 
Wis., reports that the first record 
of a transaction resembling insur- 
ance is found in the (’ode of Ham- 
murabi, written in 2250 R. C. A 
section of the code reads “If a man 
has a debt upon him nnd a thunder- 
storm ravaged his field or carried 
away his produce, or the corn has 
not grown through lack of water, 
in that year he shall not return 
corn to his creditor; he shall alter 
his tablet and shall not give in- 
terest for that year.” 


INSURANCE BENEFITS 

How to keep up with the rising 
cost of hospital care is a major 
problem for insurance companies 
which write accident, sickness, hos- 
pital, medical, and surgical insur- 
ance, it is reported by Employers 
Mutuals of Wausau, Wis. Last 
year the premium volume of com- 
panies writing these types of in- 
surance was some 15 per cent over 
the record total of 1951.

HOSPITAL 

SERVES WIDE COMMUNITY 

The wide community served by 
Winchester Hospital is indicated by j 
statistics in the Hospital’s annual 
report for the year ended Septem- 
ber HO, 1953, showing that of 4,094 
patients admitted 2,897, or nearly 
three-fourths, were from towns 
other than Winchester. The total 
of towns represented ran to a total 
of 121. 

President Gilbert H. Hood, Jr., of 
the Hospital’s board of directors 
reports a net operating loss for the 
year of $01,779.71. This resulted 
largely from the inability of the 
Hospital to operate to full capacity 
during the entire year because of 
extensive remodelling work making 
many beds unavailable for regular 
use. 

Mr. Hood states that funds in 
the hands of the Hospital’s trustees 
increased by $03,428.01 during the 
fiscal year, bringing the total to 
$342,285.07. Explaining that the 
endowment funds have been set up 
on a basis of shares similar to an 
open-end trust, he pointed out that 
this permits the trustees to operate 
the total endowment funds as one 
account and thus spread the risks 
and profits equitably among all the 
funds. 

New gifts received during the 
year included the following: $50,000 
from Jere A. Downs, $5,974 from 
Elizabeth Downs Wadsworth, $1,000 
each from Howard Torrey and 
Charles F. Dutch. In addition, the 
Hospital benefitted by gifts in ser- 
vice and equipment. 

“As always,” the report states, 
“many organizations and individ- 
uals made numerous gifts of serv- 
ice and equipment during the year. 
All that these loyal friends gave 
helped greatly to make a better 
Hospital. In our gratitude for 
their highly valued assistance we 
regret that space in this Report — 
limited for economy — does not 
permit listing their names.” 

The report describes the Open 
House of last spring as “an enthus- 
siatic community effort in the best 
tradition of suburban America.” 

With further reference to the 
Open House, the Report goes on to 
say, “The doctors, nurses, office 
workers, technicians, aides, dietary 
stair, along with the housekeeping 
and maintenance staflf were the 
actors — not to mention the many 
patients who volunteered to be part 
of the exhibit. They were aided by 
the Boy Scouts, En Ka, the friends 
of Winchester Hospital, the Girl 
Scouts, the Red Cross, the Winton 
Club, the Winchester Hospital 
Alumnae Association and many 
others, including the police and fire- 
men of Stoneham, Reading and 
Winchester.

Library Visits 

Pupils in Mrs. Walsh’s class re- 
cently enjoyed a visit to the Win- 
chester Public Library. They were 
greeted by the children’s librarian, 
Miss Russell, who gave an inter- 
esting account of some of the won- 
derful new books that are available 
in the children’s library. At the 
conclusion of her talk, she compli- 
mented the class on its attentive- 
ness. Then she led them upstairs 
to visit the beautiful Jere Downs 
music room. Miss Russell was much 
interested to hear about the “apple 
tree” which the class made for its 
room at school. Every time a- pupil 
makes a hook report another apple 
is added on the tree. During Child- 
ren’s Book Week several other 
classes from the Lincoln School al- 
so visited the library.

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS 


\r- 



MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU! is the happy 
greeting of the children who form the real live, sing- 
ing Christmas tree at Morgan Memorial in Boston. 
The youngsters represent fifteen nationalities and they 
send Yulctide greetings in their various languages 
to the friends of Morgan Memorial, 


The work of the special commis- 
sion appointed by Governor Hertcr 
to report on the state teachers col- 
leges was discussed by Mrs. Louis 
Fletcher, u member of the commis 
sion, at a general meeting of the 
League of Women Voters of Win- 
chester held Wednesday, Decem- 
ber 2, at the home of Mrs. Roswell 
G. Boutwell, 23 Sheffield road. 

The aim of the commission was 
to examine the facilities a\ailahle 
in the state teachers colleges and 
to determine how best to meet the 
need for teachers in the coming 
years, according to Mrs. Fletcher. 
It is estimated that Massachusetts 
will have fifty eight per cent more 
children in the public schools in 
1959, which will necessitate from 
fourteen to twenty-two per cent 
more teachers, said Mrs. Fletcher. 
She also pointed out that the state 
department of education needs 
4,000 new teachers each year, while 
in 1952 there were 791 teachers 
graduated from the state teachers 
colleges. The report of the special 
commission, which will bo publish- 
ed shortly, suggests the need for 
more comprehensive study, and 
recommends one of the properly 
equipped, out-of-state groups to do 
the work. 

Mrs. Leonard C. Meade, chair- 
man of the education committee of 
the Winchester League, introduced 
Mrs. Fletcher, and expressed the 
League’s particular interest in tin* 
subject due to the participation of 
Mrs. Howard Aiken, and Mrs. Wil- 
liam Spaulding, both Winchester 
League members, in a previous stu- 
dy of state teachers colleges con- 
ducted by the League of Women 
Voters of Massachusetts.

Weiscr of Weston College and

Representative Henry E. Keenan 
of Arlington has filed legislation 
for the coming session of the Legis- 
lature calling for further reclassi- 
fication of drivers under twenty- 
five years of age. It will be recall- 
ed that the Representative spoke 
before the Insurance Commissioner 
earlier in the year when the Auto- 
mobile insurance rates were up for 
a public hearing and at that time 
spoke out against the blanket class- 
ification of all drivers under the 
proposed rates for 1954. 

His proposed legislation calls for 
at least six reclassifications; name- 
ly, those in that age group who are 
owners and drivers and married 
and have family responsibilities; 
those who use their cars in going 
to and from their place of employ- 
ment; those who have a car simply 
for family use. Also credit for 
those who attended qualified auto 
driving schools and obtained li- 
censes under competent instrution 
land have been accident free since 
i the time of receiving their licenses. 

Further reclassification will un- 
doubtedly he proposed at the time 
nf the hearing on legislation based 
<»n further statistics being com- 
piled by the Representative from 
state records and records being ob- 
tained from other states.

Winchester was well represented 
in the crowd of approximately 1,000 
that comfortably filled the beauti- 
ful, new Lexington High School 
gym Inst Friday night for the 
Fourth Annual Middlesex League 
Basketball Night. This annual 
affair, dedicated to the advancement 
of good sportsmanship in the Mid- 
dlesex League, served as the back- 
ground for the dedication cere- 
monies of the new Lexington High 
School gymnasium. 

After the singing of the “Star 
Spangled Banner” and the Salute 
to the Flag, by the audience, brief 
talks were given by Principal Man- 
fred L. Warren, Mrs. Rutn Morey,

Hoard of Selectmen, and Charles 
Norris, Chairman of the Building 
Committee. This was followed by 
the dedication game, an exhibition 
mutest, between Winchester High, 
defending league champions, and 
Lexington High. This exhibition 
contest of two six-minute periods 
was won by Lexington High by a 
score of 15-13 n.« Winchester used 
a completely different quintet in 
each period. 

Principal Wade L. Grindle ac- 
cepted the championship trophy 
from President Harold W. Poole of 
the Middlesex League, emblematic 
of Winchester High’s third con- 
secutive league title. In a gracious 
speech of acceptance and of con- 
gratulation to Lexington for their 
new school, Mr. Grindle called upon 
the capable and popular Coach Ted 
Baftlett ns the man primarily 
responsible for the Winchester suc- 
cess in basketball. The Middlesex 
league Good Sportsmanship 
Trophy for the season of 1952-63 
was then awarded by the League 
President to Winchester and Wake- 
field as co-winners of this coveted 
honor for the past season. 

The most spectacular event of 
the evening was the foul-shooting 
contest won by Have Pratt of Win- 
chester, the first Winchester player 
to win this contest in the four-year 
history of this annual event. The 
eight schools sent their best foul 
hooter into this contest as Pratt

shot 16 out of 15 and Turloff of 
Stoneham dropped 14 out of 16 to 
win the qualifying round. There 
was considerable pressure ns the 
two boys lined up at opposite ends 
of the main court for the final round 
but Pratt snnk 13 out of 15 to win 
over his Stoneham rival who wilted 
a bit under the pressure. It was a 
groat exhibition of foul shooting by 
Pratt who had mndo good on 28 out 
of .30 under highly competitive con- 
ditions. 

The final event of the evening 
was the all-star game between the 
Reds, coached by Ted Bartlett of 
Winchester, and the Whites, coach- 
ed by Mel Wenncr of Belmont. 
Players from Stoneham, Melrose, 
Wakefield, and Belmont made up 
the Reds while Lexington, Concord, 
Reading, and Winchester contrib- 
uted players to the Whites, Win- 
ner’s Whites nosed our Bartlett’s 
Reds .34-3 1 with a spirited second 
half rally but your observer feels 
that Coach Bartlett was not too un- 
happy as Winchester stars Joe I>i- 
lorio, Buddy McKinley, and Dave 
Pratt played a large part in the 
White’s victory. All in all, it was 
a memorable evening to local sup- 
porters who saw a lot of basketball 
and many well deserved honors 
come to Winchester High School 
and its representatives. 


BROWNING TO SPEAK

At last Friday’s award assembly 
at high school big Mike Murphy, 
jolting fullback on this year’s rug- 
ged football team, was announced 
as captain of the 1954 eleven. At 
the same time Lou Farrell and Dick 
Borggaard were announced as cross 
country co-captains for next fall 
and Lottie Pratt, as field hockey 
captain. Mike Callahan was an- 
nounced as permanent captain of 
the freshman football team. 

Murphy’s election to the football 
captaincy will be popular with all 
followers of Winchester football, 
for big Mike has been an important 
cog in the offense and defense of 
this year’s club. As a matter of 
fact it would be difficult to deter- 
mine whether his bull-like rushes 
or murderous tackles have meant 
the most to the team. 

This is Murphy’s first year as a 
regular, though lie saw quite a bit 
of service last year, due to the ill- 
ness which plagued the regular full- 
hack, Jimmy Griffin, all season. 

This fall Murphy clinched the 
fullback slot in practice, started the 
disaste rous Concord game and con- 
tinued in the position all fall, im- 
proving gradually. He commenced 
to look good against W’inthrop, 
found himself in the Melrose game, 
when lie softened up the entire Mel- 
msc backficld with his rack-up tac- 
kles, and he blossomed into star- 
dom against Wakefield. 

With the usual improvement to 
he expected next year, big Mike 
ought to be bad news for the In- 
dian’s opponents. 

Both Lou Farrell and Dick Borg- 
gaard have meant much to the In- 
dian harriers, the former as a bril- 
liant race-winning front runner and 
Borggaard as a steady plodder who 
could be depended upon to finish in 
the first ten. 

Farrell has broken the local 
course record and won the State 
Class I) individual championship on 
November .3, finishing second in the 
Pilgrim Divisional meet and third 
in the Massachusetts Cross Coun- 
try League championship race at 
Tufts. 

Dottie Pratt, sister of Dave 
Pratt, quarterback on the football 
team for the* past two seasons, has 
played steadily at left fullback on 
this year’s field hockey team. She 
is a junior and her election, a popu- 
lar one. Mike Callahan played 
halfback on the yearling eleven 
which does not elect its captain un- 
til after the season closes.

HIGH SCHOOL HOOPSTERS 
PLAY OPENER 


The 1963 edition of the Winches- 
ter High School basketball team 
will be unveiled tonight at the high 
school gym as the Indians enter- 
tain a strong Arlington High quin- 
tet. This is the strongest opening 
game opponent the Red and Black 
has tackled years and indicates 
the growing stature of the Indians 
in the basketball world. Arlington 
has been the Suburban League 
champion for the past two years 
and, as such, has competed in Class 
A of the Tech Tournament. Faced 
with such formidable opposition in 
its opener, the Indians will know at 
the close of activities tonight what 
kind of a season they can anticipate 
this winter. 

With only co-captains Joe Di- 
Iorio and Dave Pratt, both for- 
wards, available as a nucleus, Coach 
Ted Bartlett has a huge rebuilding 
job on his hands as he attempts to 
mold a fourth consecutive Middle- 
sex League champion. Along with 
these two veterans, only Jim 
Wright has clinched a starting 
berth as pivot for this quintet. The 
two guard positions are wide open, 
waiting for any of four candidates 
to assert themselves and thus nail 
down these vital positions. Battling 
for the guard berths are seniors 
Buddy McKinley and Paul O’Brien, 


Winchester 6-1931 


junior Lou Farrell, and sophomore 
I Joe Bellino. Big John Lynch has 
worked himself into the contention 
for a varsity position and it is ex- 
pected that these eight performers 
will make up the varsity squad. 

Others who have shown consider- 
able promise and will continue to 
press the first eight on the varsity 
squad are Charlie Stevens, Bill 
Ross, Peter Gove, and Bert Knee- 
land. Surviving the pre-season 
cuts and making up the junior var- 
sity team are Niles Nelson, War- 
ren Goodnow, Boh Smith, Frank 
Dattilo, Mark Apsey, Renny John 
ston, Rich Rimbach, and George 
Stratton. Boh Willing and Bill 
Hosmer have been named as co- 
managers of this year’s team. 

It seems hard to belive that the 
basketball season is at hand but 
the boys are ready and anxious to 
( test their strength against such 
admittedly strong opposition. The 
Indians held a full-game scrimmage 
at W’atertown on Wednesday after 
noon and the word from the Arsenal 
Town was that the locals are a typi- 
cally Bartlett-coached quintet with 
plenty of aggressiveness and al- 
ways hustling. The junior varsity 
game will get underway at 7:30 to- 
night and another season will make 
its initial entry on the record hooks.

CURLING STARTS 


Three evening sessions at the 
Country Club, Brookline, have 
started the curlers off in grand 
style. The pleasing part (to the 
old curlers) is the many new faces 
and the enthusiasm shown. 

All of this is, of course, in prepa- 
ration for the new Winchester rink, 
which everyone can now see going 
up between the tennis courts ami 
the dub house. Last Tuesday eve- 
ning the new “freshman” curlers 
included Everett Knox, Bill Cros- 
ton, Harry O’Brien, Gene Pacetti, 
Ray Holds worth, Jock Page, War- 
ner Clifford, Everett Stone and 
Charlie Vanner. Additional new 
curlers attending this past Tues- 
day will he reported next week. The 
“demand” to go over to try out the 
game is so good that is seems as- 
sured there will he plenty on hand 
to help the 40-odd “old” curlers 
open up the new rink in grand 
style. 

Howard Etoson, a veteran of the 
trip to Scotland two winters ago 
and a great trip-goer to all the 
U. S. and Canadian bonspiels, is 
the curling chairman this year. He 
is both a line and most enthusiastic 
curler, so no better selection could 
be made to lead off for the new 
rink. 

Irving Jennings is chairman of 
the building committee, with Joe 
Dolben secretary. The other mem- 
bers are John Joy, Larry Burke and 
Ed Garrity. 

A policy und planning committee 
has been formed this year to lead 
the way in trying to make things 
interesting to the new, enlarged 
curling group and to see that the 
new curlers, especially, have a good 
time. This committee includes such 
old curlers as Howard Eteson, 
chairman, John Joy, Geof Neiley, 
Frank Lane, Dan Morse, Fritz (’ra- 
ven, Charley Waghorne, Shorty 
Carr and any of the “originals” 
who have a good ideu and want to 
be heard. 

An hour’s practice, between 7 
and 8 p. m., and then a short game 
is the general schedule at Brook- 
line until our own rink is ready. 
Anyone interested in curling and 
so far not contacted should get in 
touch with any of the above policy 
committee.

Capt. Robert S. Hamilton, USAF,

Morocco near Casablanca.

UNITED WORLD FEDERALISTS 

The Winchester Chapter of U. 
W. F., held a meeting December 7, 
at the home of Mrs. .Cutler B. 
Downer to hear a report given by 
Miss Alice A. Main on the Copen- 
hagen Congress, where a joint ses- 
i sion of the World Movement for 
: World Federal Government and the 
j World Association of Parliament- 
arians met to consider U. N. Char- 
ter revision. 

Delegates from 27 countries at- 
tended the week-long conference 
where among many recommend- 
ations the following were note- 
worthy. 

1. In place of the present Gen- 
eral Assembly a World Legislature 
shall he established to consist of 
two chambers — one called the Coun- 
cil of States — the other called the 
Council of Peoples. 

2. The Charter shall provide for 
complete simultaneous universal 
and enforceable disarmament. 

3. The Charter shall provide for 
a U. N. Inspectorate charged with 
the supervision of the disarmament 
plan and for a U. N. Police to en- 
force provisions of the Charter. 

Rev. Donald Harrington has writ- 
ten, “It has been a moving and 
thrilling experience over the last 
six years to see this great world 
federalist effort grow from a small 
and diffuse collection of rather im- 
practical idealists, and dreamers in- 
to organizations which include not 
only many members of the world's 
parliaments but ministers and offic- 
ers of governments some of whom 
undoubtedly will be official dele- 
gates to the U. N. Charter review 
conference if it is held in 1955.” 

The winter program of the U. 
W. F. in Winchester will center on 
a study of the review and revision 
of the U. N. Charter.

troyer, 1JSS Brown, that returned 
from a third tour of duty in Korean 
waters November 18, docking in 
San Diego, Cal. 

While engaged in shore bombard- 
ment during her second tour of 
duty, tin* Brown came upon a small 
boat filled to near sinking with 37 
Korean refugees. The men, women 
and children were taken aboard, 
treated and later transferred to a 
command post behind the front 
lines. 


M.S.P.C.A. OFFERS HINTS 
FOR CHRISTMAS GIFT PETS 

Dr. Eric H. Hansen. President of 
the Massachusetts Society for the 
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, 
180 Longwood avenue, Boston, yes- 
terday urged everyone to exercise 
due caution, before giving animal 
pets for Christmas gifts. 

“Make sure, first of all,” stated 
the Society official, "that the animal 
will have a good home and will re- 
ceive the best of care. There should 
he one person in the household who 
is willing to take full responsibility 
for the animal’s welfare so that he 
will have proper food and sleeping 
quarters. It it is a child, well and 
good, hut nothing should be left to 
chance, for a youngster may prom- 
ise faithfully to care for his new 
pet, and then turn to something 
else, thereby neglecting the animal. 
For this reason, an older person in 
the home should personally super- 
vise the creature’s care.” 

Dr. Hansen concluded with the 
statement that in giving a pet for 
Christmas, the donor should bear 
in mind that the recipient may not 
he familiar with the diet and habits 
of animals and, therefore, full in- 
structions for its care and treat- 
ment should accompany the gift 
pet. In this connection, the So- 
ciety has offered to cooperate by 
furnishing free literature on the 
care and feeding of animals, which 
may he obtained by writing to So- 
ciety headquarters.

GIRL SCOUT NEWS 


SERVICE PROJECTS 


All Winchester Girl Scout troops 
are engaged this month in commu- 
nity service projects. Some troops 
have already sent Christmas pack- 
ages to servicemen who will be on 
the high seas at the holiday season, 
through the Winchester Chapter, 
American Red Cross. Others are 
collecting toys, games and clothing 
for distribution at Christmas. 
Leaders are reminded that all gifts 
for this project must he in to the 
Scout Office by December 18, un- 
wrapped in a carton marked with 
the ago and sex of the child. 

Holiday Skating Parties 
The Program Committee is mak- 
ing plans for two skating parties 
to he held in the morning of De- 
cember 29. The Brownie Scouts 
will roller skate at the Bal-A-Roue 
in Medford with their leaders ar- 
ranging transportation. The Inter- 
mediate and Senior Scouts will ice 
skate at the North Shore Sports 
Center in Lynn, and their leaders 
are reminded that reservations 
should he telephoned in to the Scout 
Office, so that bus transportation 
can he arranged. 

Troop Registrations 
There are still a few troops due 
to register. The council registrar, 
Miss Constance Lane would like to 
have every troop registered by De- 
cember 15. Bring or send registra- 
tion forms to the Scout Office. 


Mentioning the importance of 
youth movements throughout the 
world, and emphasizing how the 
Nazis and the Soviet.* use their 
youth for accomplishment of their 
ideological and propaganda aims, 
Mrs. Cart stressed the great value 
| to democracy of our Girl Scout 
work and teaching. 

The National Organization puts 
emphasis on two aspects of the 
work: 1. development of the spir- 
itual side of Scouting, and 2, teach- 
ing of citizenship by giving real 
and practical aid on service pro- 
jects within the community. 

She spoke of the versatility of 
leaders, their capability and devel- 
opment of new skills, training a 
whole new generation to approach 
new things in a venturesome way; 
the gradual breaking down of pre- 
judices and building of new under- 
standing as Girl Scouting includes 
all races, creeds and colors, teach- 
ing us that there is only one race, 
“the human race"; and that citizen- 


Mrs. Cart Spoke 

Mrs. Dwight L. Cart, in speak- 
ing to the Girl Scout Association 
Meeting at the Cabin, said two out- 
standing qualities show always in 
the attitude of adults working in 
Scouting: a spirit of fun, and also 
a definite sense of responsibility.

MISSION OVER KOREA 


FROM THE POSTMASTER 


"No one,” says Postmaster 
Thomas .1. Gilgun "is ns busy those 
days as the average postal em- 
ployee, unless it’s the average 
housewife. I doubt if either will 
have time to think twice about any- 
thing before Christmas rolls 
around.” 

It’s true, Mrs. Homemaker. So 
true that it will pay you many 
times over to follow the Postmas- 
ter’s advice on how to mail your 
Christmas cards and gifts correctly 
— the first time! 

For example, the Post Office has 
little interest in how pretty your 
gift packages are wrapped. But it 
is definitely concerned about how 
well each parcel is wrapped. 

Postmaster Gilgun warns that, 
"The Christmas mail will he heavier 
than ever this year. If your gifts 
are fragile, mark them ‘Handle 
With Care.* We’ll do our best to 
protect them.” 

Ho also suggests you select a 
mailing carton of corrugated fiber- 
board. Use a heavy wrapping paper 
and strong cord tied over and under 
several times. Christmas seals and 
"I)o Not Open Until Christmas” 
stickers should he placed on hack of 
the parcel, so the address remains 
easy to read. 

The package itself may not ho 
sealed, unless the return address 
and this inscription appear: "Con- 
tents, Merchandise — May he open- 
ed for postal inspection.” 

Both the sender’s address and 
that of the recipient should be 
written inside of the mailing car-

ton, for emergency use. Limits on 
size and weight this year vary ac- 
cording to destination. Ask about 
them when you visit the Post Office 
to buy stamps. 

Right now is the best time to buy 
your stamps. The crowds are small, 
especially before 10 a. m. or be- 
tween 1:80 and 8:30 p. m. 

As for Christmas cards, the 
Postmaster strongly recommends 
that everyone, "Forget the two’s 
and use the three’s. With a three- 
cent stamp Christmas enrds are 
sorted and delivered first, and they 
will be forwarded or returned if 
necessary. 

"That eliminates any worry 
about whether your Christmas 
cards went astray, provided they 
did carry a return address. Also 
you can write a personal message 
on them, when only a signature is 
authorized at the third-class rate.” 

Delivery of your Christmas cards 
can be speeded up, too. Just tie 
them in two separate bundles, and 
attach the special labels marked 
"All For Local Delivery” and "All 
For Out-Of-Town Delivery.” These 
tags can be picked up at the Post 
Oflice, and you’ll find other helpful 
mailing instructions printed on 
back. 

If you begin now, there’s plenty 
of time for delivery by Christmas 
Kve. Christmas cards going to 
other states should he posted be- 
fore December 15, those with local 
addresses at least a week before 
Christmas. 

Parcel post requires more time. 
So mail your out-of-state gifts by 
December 5, and the local ones by 
December 10. After these dates arc 
past, better use air mail service for 
both gift packages and Christmas 
cards.

WATSON HOME 


Pfc. Charles E. Watson, son of 
Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Watson 
of Salisbury street, who is present- 
ly home on 36-days leave, spent 15 
months in Korea and had not been 
home for 17 months when he ar- 
rived in town recently. 

His three-year enlistment is up 
next September, but accumulated 
leave will probably get him out of 
the service before then. At the ex- 
piration of his present leave he re- 
ports to Fort Devens January 5 
for reassignment in this country. 

Charlie, former Massachusetts 
State interscholastic tennis singles 
champion and Maine State singles 
titlist while a senior at Bowdoin, 
was a member of the doubles team 
that won the tennis championship 
of the 8th Army while in Korea. 
The tou nicy was played during 
three weeks right after the truce 
was signed, and marked the first 
time Watson had played tennis in 
two years. 

Charlie was attached to the 3rd 
Signal Company of the 3rd Infan- 
try Division while in Korea and for 
several months previous to the 
truce was driving a jeep from a 
Signal Corps message center. 


POST OFFICE OPEN

Postmaster Thomas J. Gilgun 

announces that on next Saturuay, 
December 12, 1953. the local post 
office will be open for business all 
day. The stamp and parcel post 
windows will be open at 7 a. m. and

The following Saturday, Decem- 
ber 19, 1953, the post oflice again 
will open at 7 a. m. and will stay 
open until all patrons are taken 
care of. 


An analysis of iron products 
which were made at the country’s 
first successful ironworks at Sau- 
gus, Mass., shows that the iron 
does not differ greatly from that 
made today. 



FROM THE POSTMASTER 

It isn’t that Postmaster Thomas 
J. (iilgun can’t wait like the rest 
of us for jolly old Santa. But he’d 
be the happiest man in town if to- 
morrow were December 25. 

Instead, there’s still 13 days be- 
fore Christmas, and nobody knows 
how many tons of Christmas cards 
and gift packages are yet to come. 

"Our main problem right now,’’ 
the Postmaster noted today, "is 
that too many people are waiting 
to mail everything at once. We 
know what’s coming. But we don’t 
know when.” 

Put yourself in the Postmaster’s 
place. You’ve just hired a group 
of temporary postal workers. 
You’re expecting packages. Big 
packages, little packages. Neatly- 
wrapped and poorly-wrapped pack- 
ages. Some insured, some regis- 
tered. 

There will he Christmas cards by 
the thousands. Yes, and the final 
count may total millions. From 
past experience, you know that the 
job gets bigger and bigger each 
year. What would you do? 

Postmaster Gilgun has worked 
out his own answer, lie asks the 
public to cooperate, by following a 
few time-saving suggestions: 

"Wrap and mail your gifts two 
or three a: a time. Don’t lot them 
pile up on you now, or at the Post 
Office later. Begin with those to 
he addressed to distant states.” 

This year all parcel post going 
out-of-state should be mailed by 
December 5, for local delivery by 
December 10. Size and weight 
limitations now in effect vary ac- 
cording to destination. Ask about 
them when you visit the Post Office 
to buy stamps. 

In some zones, for example, par- 
cel post may not exceed 72 inches 
in length and girth combined and 
*10 pounds in weight. While in 
others the combined length and 
girth may he 100 inches and the 
weight up to 70 pounds. 

"The important thing to remem- 
ber about Christmas cards,” says 
Postmaster Gilgun, "is to send them 
by first-class mail, and place your 
return address on the envelope.” 

With a three-cent stamp, y >ur 
Christmas cards will be forwarded 
if the addressee has moved, and a 
new address is on file, or returned 
if the addressee cannot be located. 
Christmas cards mailed first-class 
also may carry written messages, 
a popular Yuletide custom. 

What’s more, Christmas card en- 
velopes smaller than ‘J b” by 4" or 
larger than 9” by 12" must carry 
three-cent stamps. For they require 
s p e c i a 1 treatment. Christmas 
cards addressed to other states 
should be posted by December 15. 
Those addressed for delivery with- 
in the state by at least a week be- 
fore Christmas. 

"Delivery of Christmas cards can 
he simplified for us and speeded up 
for you,” the Postmaster concluded. 
"Just tie them in two separate 


bundles, with the addresses facing 
one way.” 

"Then attach t’ne special labels 
that indicate ‘All For Local Deliv- 
ery' and All For Out-Of-Town 
Delivery.’ These helpful tags can 
he picked up at the Post Office 
merely for the asking, and will be 
available throughout the holiday 
season.” 

BAD ACCIDENT 
ON CAMBRIDGE STREET 

Another bad accident took place 
on Cambridge street Sunday morn- 
ing shortly before 1:30 when a 
Studebakcr coupe, owned and driv- 
en by Richard Crowther of 87 Re- 
vere street, Boston, a student at 
M. I. T.. while headed south, veer- 
ed to the left of the road opposite 
the Boat Club and struck a big 
tree head on. 

Police Headquarters was noti- 
fied and Officers William Haggerty 
and Henry Dempsey went to the 
scene followed by Officer John Mc- 
Hugh with the Department ambu- 
lance and apparatus from the Fire 
Department. 

Crowther was accompanied by his 
wife, Nancy, and both were pinned 
in the car, the motor having been 
driven hack toward the front seat 
of the machine and badly cutting 
the legs of Mrs. Crowther. 

The police had to pry open the 
door to free the occupants, both of 
whom were badly injured. Officer 
Haggerty applied tourniquets to 
Mrs. Crowther’s legs, effectively 
staunching the flow of blood and 
she and her husband were rushed 
to the hospital in the ambulance. 

Drs. Alexander P. Aitken, Wil- 
liam F. Hickey and Charles E. 
Rooney were awaiting the injured 
at the hospital and found Mrs. 
Crowther, besides her severely cut 
legs, had sustained a badly broken 
leg, scalp lacerations and head in- 
juries and probable fractured ribs. 
Her husband sustained had lacer- 
ations of the chin and head injuries. 

Though both young people, re- 
ported to have been returning from 
a honeymoon, were seriously in- 
jured, the physicians believed they 
would recover and also that they 
will he able to save Mrs. Crowther’s 
legs.

CAR RAMMED FENCE 
AT STATION 


In nno of those accidents that just 
couldn’t happen, but did. Albert S. 
Snow of 55 Yale street escaped in- 
jury at 4:40 last Thursday after- 
noon when his automobile started 
up at Winchester Station and went 
from the easterly platform to the 
westerly platform of the station, 
crashing through the steel and iron 
fence between the outward and in- 
bound tracks of the railroad on the 
way. 

According to the police, Mrs. 
Snow was driving the Snow Olds 
sedan just before the accident and 
left it parked facing Winchester 
Station at the end of Waterficld 
road adjacent to the space reserved 
for taxicabs. The motor was loft 
running when she parked the car 
and Mr. Snow was seated on the 
passenger’s side of the front sent. 

Just what happened next isn’t 
clear. The police think Mr. Snow, 
in shifting his position, may have 
struck the lever controlling the 
hydramatic shift of the machine, 
knocking it into low speed forward, 
while at the same time accidentally 
stepping on the throttle. 

At all events the car started for- 
ward suddenly and crossing the 
easterly sidewalk, crashed through 
the fence between the tracks and up 
onto the broad platform in front of 
the station. There the machine 
made a U-turn to the right and 
broke through the fence again, 
hoving a nine foot section of the 
five-foot harrier before it as it 
drove across the outbound tracks. 

Bouncing up onto the easterly 
sidewalk, the car finally came to a 
stop against the timbers support- 
ing the first platform of the over- 
head footbridge at the station, the 
rear-end (if the machine remaining 
on the outbound tracks. 

Sgt. Edward F. Bowler of the 
police attempted to move the car, 
but the hydramatic had become 
jammed in low speed, and it was 
necessary to free it before the car 
could he reversed and driven, partly 
on the station sidewalk and partly 
on the outbound roadbed of the rail- 
road, north to the grade crossing 
at the center where it was towed to 
Master Motors Garage. 

Meanwhile the railroad tower 
man was stopping all trains, while 
Section Foreman Charles Barnes 
stopped an outbound train with a 
flare and supervised the removal of 
the broken fence from the tracks. 
Miraculously, Mr. Snow apparently 
was not injured in what was one of 
the most unusual accidents to occur 
in Winchester for a long time.

LANDS TO SOUTH 
NEW MAP SHOWS 


Neighbor lands south of the bor- 
der — Mexico and the Central 
American countries — are covered 
in the latest National Geographic 
Society map supplement, now being 
distributed to 2,150,000 Society 
member families in their Nation 
Geographic Magazine for March. 

Printed in ten colors, the supple- 
ment unfolds to 37 by 2714 inches 
and is on a scale of 1 :3, 500, 000, or 
55.24 miles to the inch. 

Ten Years of Air Photos 

Ten years of intensive air photo- 
graphy, along with a distillation of 
all the cartographic knowledge ac- 
quired since the days of the Con- 
quistadores, lie behind this new 
map, richer by nearly 3,000 place 
names than any of the same area 
previously published by the Na- 
tional Geographic Society. 

During and since W’orld War II, 
all of Central America and almost 
half of Mexico were photographed 
from the air by United States 
agencies in an ambitious mapping 
project undertaken in cooperation 
with other American republics. 

The Society’s map reflects the 
results obtained by this project, 
carefully checked against a wealth 
of sources that included the out- 
standing map collection assembled 
by the International Geographic 
Union for its Seventeenth Congress 
in Washington last August. 

Technically, it is a product of 
sonic of the world’s leading carto- 
graphers, aided by unique Society 
equipment and the most accurate 
of modern lithographic presses. 
Drawn on the Albers Conical 
Equal-Area Projection, it shows all 
areas in their true proportion. 

Map In Two Sections 

In order to get the entire region 
onto the sheet in the scale chosen, 
Chief Cartographer James M. Dar- 
ley planned the map in two sec- 
tions. The main section, showing 
Mexico, ends to the south and east 
midway across Honduras. An in- 
sert on the same scale carries the 
reader on down to Panama’s border 
with Colombia. The chart extends 
far enough north into the United 
States to give proper perspective. 

Much of interest and importance 
has transpired in Mexico and the 
wasp waist of the Western Hemi- 
sphere since war days. The Inter- 
American Highway, part of the 
projected great Pan American 
Highway the length of the Amer- 
icas, has been almost completed. 
It shows on the new map. 

In the desolate Revilla Gigedo 
Islands about 250 miles south of 
the tip of Lower California, vol- 
canoes have built new mountains, 
and Mexico has awarded exploita- 
tion rights for what may he one 
of the world’s largest sulphur de- 
posits. 

The Panama Canal, shown in an 
inset on a scale of 11:84 miles to 
the inch, has set all-time high 
records for carrying shipping. 
Mexico has created a new twenty- 
ninth state in Lower California, 
and started developing in the Papa r 
loapan River Valley its own par- 
allel to the American Tennessee 
Valley project. 

In Sigsbce Deep, far out in the 
Gulf of Mexico, has been found a 
depression 14,358 feet deep, a new 
record for the area. Chihuahua’s 
Canyon of Copper — Barraneo de 
Cobre — has been described by ex- 
plorers as deeper than the Grand 
Canyon of the Colorado. 


GEOGRAPHIC ODDITIES 
AND BRIEFS 


Common belief that snakes travel 
by moving their ribs has been ex- 
ploded by X-ray moving pictures 
showing the ribs to be stationary 
in the body under all methods of 
snake locomotion. 


Volcanic steam harnessed in 
plants at Larderello, Italy, furnish- 
es almost one-tenth of the nation’s 
total electric power, says the Na- 
tional Geographic Society.

A GOOSE SILLY! NOT SO,

How silly is a goose? Not silly

United States, have ganders they 
claim tend sheep, says the National 
Geographic Society. In each case, 
the big bird leads the flock to water, 
then returns it to pasture. 

The talents of geese as sentries 
are well known. Excited gabbling 
of Rome’s sacred geese from their 
home in the Temple of Juno atop 
Capitoline Hill roused the Eternal 
City’s defenders in time to rout the 
barbarian Gauls who invaded Italy 
in 390 B. C. 

Used In Kenya 

“Watchdog” geese were sent last 
summer from Suffolk, England, to 
Nairobi, capital of British Kenya 
in East Africa. They were bought 
by a settler to give the alarm in 
case of Mau Man attack. 

Across the world in Malaya, the 
British high command early in 1953 
announced that goose sentries were 
being stationed in pens around vil- 


lages threatened by Communist 
guerrilla raiders. 

Like their domesticated brothers, 
the free, high-flying wild geese 
that go honking down the sky at 
season’s turn rate high in intelli- 
gence. Canada geese, snow geese, 
blue geese, brants all carefully in- 
spect the ground for possible 
danger before landing, and while 
feeding, post sentinels. 

Most American barnyard geese 
are descendants of the European 
and Asiatic graylag. The best for 
watchdog duty is the big and power- 
ful Chinese goose, suspicious of 
strangers and possessed of a voice 
rivaling a Parisian taxicab horn in 
penetrating resonance. 

Weed Crops 

Because they arc finicky and se- 
lective about their food, geese are 
excellent at weeding crops. Hun- 
dreds of thousands of them tend 
cotton fields, nurseries and blue- 
berry and strawberry patches from 
Texas to New Jersey. 

Their employers claim they eat j 
crab grass, Bermuda grass and 
even saw-edged Johnson grass I 
j without ever touching the cotton j 
plants, berries or young trees. For 
lawns, however, they are not recom- ! 
mended.

COUNTRY PROPERTY 

Now is the time to buy a country estate, a vacation camp 
beside a lake, or a village home with an income from the start. 
Because prices are right and competition for property is not too 
great (even plumbers and carpenters can be had at this time of 
year), property can be seen und appraised as it really is.

Season’s Greetings 



Long time residents of Winches- 
ter remember Thurston Hall as a 
hoy ami young man here, and as 
often as his busy theatrical life 
permits Mr. Hall visits the town 
and his old friends here. Only re- 
cently he was delighted to see Mrs. 
Alice Eberle and Mrs. Ruth Hilton 
when these two well known resi- 
dents of Winchester visited him 
during a trip to California at the 
Telopix Studios in Hollywood where 
he was on TV location. 

Horn in Jamaica Plain. Mr. Hall 
has spent more than 50 years in 
show business ami has a list of 
stage and screen successes number- 
ing more than 1,000. He is now 
busy compiling a second list of 
credits in the newer field of TV. 

Mr. Hall, whose acting exper- 
ience started with school plays in 
Winchester, added a solid TV credit 
to his new found love on a recent 
Wednesday evening, when he made 
the first of a series of appearances 
as the blustering manufacturer op- 
posite Gale Storm and Charles Far- 
rell in NBC-TV’s popular “My Lit- 


tle Margie" series on Channels 4 
and 10. 

The youngest of three children, 
Mr. Ha'll studied law before going 
to New York in the early 1900’s to 
play a juvenile role in “Mrs. Wigg* 
Of The Cabbage Patch”. As a 
leading man. he starred opposite 
the most glamorous beauties on the 
American stage, including Lillian 
Russell and Irene Rordoni. 

In the last 17 years, Mr. Hall 
has made 500 movies. In 1922 he 
I began a four-year tour of the 
British Isles with his own company 
of players. 

In joining the cast of “My Lit* 
! tie Margie”, Mr. Hall joined a well- 
known Hub City booster in Far- 
rell, the Boston University grad- 
uate who became a silent movie 
matinee idol, and who started a 
' new theatrical career when he 
agreed to co-star in “My Little 
Margie”. 


UNDERGRADUATE BRUNCH 


An “undergraduate brunch" at 
the home of Mrs. Gilbert H. Hood, 
Jr., 0 Everett avenue will be a 
I Christmas vacation highlight for 
prospective Smith College students. 
F rom 11 a. m. to 1 pi m. on Wed- 
nesday, December 30, Sophomores, 
Juniors nnd Seniors in High School 
are invited by the Winchester 
Smith College Club to get together 
with Smith undergraduates home 
for the holidays. 

The High School girls will have 
the chance to talk informally with 
the college students and recent 
graduates and more intimately ab- 
sorb feelings about Smith College 
from those already closely asso- 
ciated. Any interested High 
School girl who would like to at- 
tend the “brunch” and has not re- 
ceived an invitation is most cor- 
dially urged to call Mrs. Arthur 
Hertig. Winchester 0-2744. 


Mr. and Mrs. John D. West, for- 
mer residents of Wedgemere ave- 
nue, were in town last week visit- 
ing Mr. and Mrs. Edward A. Bart- 
lett of Hillside avenue.

the doll that cries real tears 


Your youngster will have hours of fun ploying with Tiny Teort # 
like Miss Frances does at Ding Dong School. Tiny Tears is the 
noarost thing to a live baby. Big wet tears roll dewn her fat# 
chubby cheeks as she cries lustly to be changed, fed, bathed and 
pampered. She also sleeps, drinks her bottle, wets her diapers# 
takes a bath; so many of the things real live babies do. Tiny 
Tears will give your little girl the thrill of being “make believe" 
grown-up mother. YOUR youngster will love Miss Frances* 
television favorite Tiny Tears.

New Haven (Yale) founded origin- 
ally in Saybrook, Conn., in 1701, 
whose 252 years of high teaching 
standards, deserve a better stand- 
ing in the howling tournament. 

The team consists of the follow- 1 
ing men. Richie Riga. Jr., whose 
remarkable record speaks for it- 
self. Henry Sibrizio who could use 
a lot of practice to equal last year’s 
record. Al Tibnudo who carries 
his share of the burdens. 

“St. Bernard Eyes** George Voci, 
if he could get the pig out of his I 
mind he could do much better. D. I 
Puntalea, a new bowler who needs! 
seasoning. Ben Gilotti, if he could 
miss the rubber enough times he 
could he a darn good bowler. Whis- 
pers and comments heard mound 
the alley. 

“Wedding Bolls Boh” to limit 
himself to ten appointments and 
twenty-five hand shakes on Wed-

ly ? Heard Cost! is going to exhale. 
Pom Provinsano to lift his nose up 
four inches. Is there a prouder 
father than “Creeper” Gene? Does 
“Winchester Star” Larry know who j 
writes this column? Ollio Sibrizio 
set up pins like a professional in an j 
emergency which arose this week. | 
Heard he kept a running conversa- 
tion with the pins to keep himself i 
in trim. The best dressed man j 
Nick Molea is the proud father of

new contest was to he announced. | 
It is being sponsored by our good j 
and honorable president of the I 
A. C. A. Sir M. Frongillo, well I 
known philanthropist for personal I 
financial gain only. Because of his j 
inability to partiepate in the waist I 
reducing exercises and loss of rev- 
enue induced by his incapacitation ; 
lie has ventured into a new field ! 
which calls upon his mental in- j 
geniousnesses he so possesses. He ' 
has associated himself with one of 
the foremost established makers of ; 
loupes here in the East. He has 1 
been given the entire town of Win- 
chester as an open field in his new j 
endeavor. His first thought was to' 
hold a contest among the howlers. !

during this contest. Contestant j 
rules are as follows:

standing in the S. O. I. 

2. Must he a howler of the S. O. I. 

3. Hair count must not exceed 
7335. 

4. To protect the six contestants 
in the semi-finals, a microscopic 
tost will he made to determine if j 
any shaving was done to the cran- j 
ium. 

5. In case of tie duplicate awards 
will he given. 

(3. The decision of his honor 
Mingy will he final. 

Prize: “A blond curly toupe.” 

Next week will he posted the 
semi-finalists.

The Winchester National Bank 
sent out this week its new Rngagc- 
ment Calendar for 1954. 

Similar in design to its predeces- 
sor it is again beautifully illus- 
trated with pencil sketches by the 
well known Winchester artist and 
designer, Finest Dudley Chase. In 
addition to sketches of private 
homes about town there is included 
one of Mr. Chase’s illustrated maps 
of Winchester and a charming stu- 
dv of what the artist calls “Middle 
Mystic Lake,” that portion of “big 
Mystic” north of the causeway and 
dam at the Medford Boat Club. 

These National Bank calendars 
form a valuable pictorial record of 
the town as it is today and are 
carefully preserved by many who 
look forward to them each year. 


The new subtracting lightning 
adding machine with one stroke 
clearance, with direct subtraction 
— see it at Wilson the Stationer.

ident Royal P. Tede, those present 
being "Wild Willie” McLaughlin, 
the Pride of Stow and Chnmpion of 
all Nahnasset, the Secretary, and 
of course, Mr. Teele and Mr. Gard- 


ner. Arthur E. Butters, sometimes 
called the State of Maine Champ in 
the old days when "Willoughby 
Mobbs was king at Palmer street, 
was not among the gladiators, nor 
has he been for lo, these many days. 

Mr. McLaughlin arrived late at 
the beach, and in extenuation of his 
dilatory appearance was very crit- 
ical of the manner in which his 
notification of impending play 
reached him. Had it not been for 
the fact that Mi. Luke P. Glendon, 
the well known Gaelic authority, 
was at homo when Mr. Teele trans- 
mitted his message by phone, Mr. 
McLaughlin would have known

nothing of the gathering of the 
« Ians and so would have absented 
himself from play, thereby pre- 
cluding the matches from rcguln 
tion stature because of the lack of 
i» quorum. 

All this came out a< "Willie” 

. was divesting himself of his outer 
hiyer of clothing and lighting his 
1'ipc. Mr. Teele listened without 
( "mmont. Mr. Gardner's sole con- 
tribution was, "Comp on! Let’s get 
going!”, and the Secretary, who 
•vas busy hunting a rent for the 
matching, had nothing to say. 

1 The fates were unkind to Mr. 
McLaughlin, for he drew the Sec- 
retary as a partner and went down 
m the first match, two straight, 
though it must he said that the 
Pride of Stow offered little him- 
self in support of his team’s at- 
tempt to win. 

With a change of partners "Wil- 
lie" came to life, and announcing 
that he had now "got the feel of 
the shoes” he and Mr. Gardner pro- 
ceeded to “take” the Association’s 
| officers, hut not without the dickens 
| of a struggle. 

As a matter of strict record, the 
President and Secretary actually 
won the first game, 25-21, Mr. 
Teele’s whoops of triumph causing 
many as far away as Main street 
I to pause and wonder. 

The Secretary during this game 
had one of his rare flurries of ade- 
quate pitching, while Mr. Teele 
was ringing the stake with such 
regularity that Mr. McLaughlin 
! finally had to forego his references 
to 'Tcclc's luck!” 

Came the second game, and the 
President and the Scribe continued 
to dazzle each other and opposition 
until they had posted a score of 21 
as against 12 for Mr. Gardner and 
Mr. McLaughlin. 

At this point Mr. Teele flung a 
ringer and a toucher, and both he 
and the Secretary figured to "rot 


out”, only to have Mr. McLaughlin 
hang one on the pin and knock Mr. 
Tecio’s other shoe gaily west with 
his second offering. 

This so cm aged Mr. Teele and 
untie i - ed the Secretary that they 
busted wide open, Mr. Gardner and 
Mr. Teele throwing alternate ring 
ers ' h monotonous regularity un- 
til the score was tied at 24 all. 

Mr. McLaughlin shot first and 
:*ot a counter, hut only a fair shoe, 
Mr. Teele voicing his contempt for 
the offering. “Willie’s” second 
shoe landed at least two feet from 
the pin hut bounced directly on, 
and stayed! That was it! Mr. 
Teelo’s shoes went fluking by the 
stake and the match was tied. 

The rubber game was a battle, 
with the President and Secretary 
again pushing to the fore, only to 
have the deadly accuracy of Mr. 
Gardner and the upsetting clutch 
pitching of Mr. McLaughlin turn 
the tide once more. 

The final score was 25-22, and 
the officers, gluttons for punish- 
ment, decided to try the winners 
again. They did so and looked 
good to win with an 11-4 lend, but 
at this point the Secretary blew 
completely, and Mr. Teele, unable 
to carry the load alone, went down 
fighting, 25-17. 

Mr. Gardner accepted his cham- 
pionship honors with becoming 
modesty, and denied any secret 
practice at Hancock, N. 11., during 
the summer. Doubts, however, 
were freely expressed by Mr. Teele 
who plans to check with “Butch”, 
the Gardner son and heir, at the 
earliest possible moment.

Troop 1 Chatter 

Troop 1 had its first trip of the 
Scout year, when seven girls went 
to New Boston, N. IF, and spent the 
week-end camping out of-doors. 
Leaving Winchester at 9:00 a. m. 
on Saturday, the girls arrived in 
New Boston about 11, and began 
to set up their camp. Tents were 
set up and preparations made for 
cooking supper at the campfire. 
After supper various games were 
played and then everyone retired to 
their respective tents. Sunday, 
after a hearty breakfast, also cook- 
ed out doors, the girls went horse- 
back riding and afterwards broke 
camp. Everyone returned home 
early Sunday evening. This troop 
had as its leaders, Mr. and Mrs. W. 
B. Mersey, and the girls who went 
on the trip were: Alison Mersey, 
Sue Donnell, Peg McNally, Betty 
Fou Martcnsen, Vivian Bullard, 
Judie Higgins and Sheila Scanlon. 

Troop No. 1 enjoyed an educa- 
tional and very colorful evening 
last week when they went to Cam- 
bridge High and Fatin School to 
see the famed Tyrol ians. 

This is a group of Austrians who 
yodel, dance and sing to their old 
folk music. The 11 players were 
dressed in Alpine dirndl skirts and 
“leder boson.” The performance 
was gay and festive, with many 
fast-moving, highly colorful dances 
being done by the men and women 
of tlic group. 

Our Troop was extremely im- 
pressed with the performance, 
which added very considerably to 
our knowledge of our European 
neighbors.

Miss Moreland, the attractive

pianist, charming in manner and 
poised, geared her presentation to 
virtuosity with compositions of 
Chopin and Liszt. She acquitted j

octet from the Glee Club itself. 
Singing with fine balance and fin- 
esse, the eight men brought both 
popular ballads and “old timers” to | both, 
life. They are exciting to hear and 
flin to watch. Their* variations 
range from “Blue Indigo”, “In The 
Evening By The Moonlight”, to 
“The Passport Photographer”. Here 
again, enunciation was above the 
usual. 

On the fun Hide of listening were 
“Cindy”, the Arthur Hall arrange- 
ment of the “Old Kentucky Moun- 
tain” song; “Shadrack”, composed 
by Robert MacGimsey and arranged 
by Orrie Lee; and the Clokey 
conglomeration of familiar tunes, 

‘The Musical Trust”. In these the 
•ontagious enthusiasm of director 
Allen C. Lannom spread to singers 
ind audience afike. 

Although it is always good to 
hear old and favorite compositions 
well done, real appreciation must 
be expressed to the Glee Club for 
their fine rendition of the things 
with more musical import. The 
enchanting beauty of the simple 
Appalachian Folk Song, “Black Is 
The Color Of My True Love’s Hair”, 
arranged by Stuart Churchill, and 
the loveliness of the several Christ- 
mas songs in the last group were 
particularly noticeable. Especially 
fine was the Richard Kountz “Rise 
Up Early”. With this were sung 
Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming” 
f Praetorious, “’Twas In The Moon 
Of Winter Time”, arranged by 
Daltry, and the unusual Clarence 
Dickenson arrangement of “Angels 
O’er The Fields”. 

The good work of accompanist 
Frederic Davis was outstanding in 
the interesting composition of 
Frederick Loewe, “They Call The 
Wind Maria”. Here also was ap- 
parent the imaginative ingenuity 
and powerful control of dynamics 
of director Lannom, under whose 
conducting the Glee Club has be- 
come an exceptionally fine singing 


ished by a fine of not more than five 
hundred dollars or by imprisonment 
for not more than two years, o.*

Basketball fans at the high 
school gym last Friday night may 
see better games this season but 
none more exciting than the uphill 
43-41 thriller that Winchester High 
scored over Arlington High. The 
Indians overcame a 5-point deficit 
in the last two minutes of play to 
win on a basket by co-captain Joe 
Dilorio just three seconds before 
the final gun to climax a spirited 
surge by a fighting band of Indians. 

Arlington put a big team on the 
court and the visitors used their 
height to good advantage to take a 
14-9 lead at the end of the first 
quarter. The Red and Black fought 
back in the second quarter to out- 
score Arlington 13-7 and take a 
slim 22-21 lead at thc intermission. 
Arlington looked good again in the 
third quarter as they gained five 
points to take a 32-28 lead enter- 
ing the final period. With two 
minutes to play Arlington held a 
41-3G margin when the locals start- 
ed their winning rally. 

Joe Bellino cut the lead to three 
points as he scored on a pretty 
driving-in layup. With 50 seconds 
to play Joe Dilorio came up with 
a vital 3-point play as he made good 
on a basket and the ensuing foul 
called on the play which tied the 
score at 41-41. With 22 seconds to 
play Winchester regained posses- 
sion of the ball and the alert Bart 
lett called a time out to set up the 
winning play. On the play that 
followed, the basket was missed but j

HOUSE MOVED THROUGH TOWN 

The bouse formerly occupied by 
Retired Fire Chief and Mrs. John 

(human, win- moved early \Yod- 
nt -day morning from 4U4 Main 
street, to a spot substantially in the 
location of tlm old dog pound be- 
hind the Foley home on upper Main 
street. It will he re-located at 159 
Horn Pond Hrook road, ffoing there 
by way of Sylvester avenue. 

The house, one of three taken by 
the town to make room for the addi- 
tions at the Junior lliirh School, 
was moved by R. K. Goodwin A- Son, 
Inc., Building Movers, of 10 Qrne 
street, Marblehead. The firm has 
moved more than forty houses, 
larRc and small, and so expert have 
they become that it is reported that 
no ceiling in any of the buildings 
had been cracked. 

The Gorman house was moved 
through town on what is known as 
a “dolly”, a flat low drag, hauled 
by a huge diesel-powered Mack 
truck. It was first moved from its 
original location at 1 Warwick ter- 
race to b‘U Main street, siti* of the 
former Marchant house which had 
been torn down. 

It was loaded ready to go some 
time before zero hour, which was 
midnight, to avoid undue interfer- 
ence with traffic. A light had to be 
taken down and the supporting 
bracket bent to get the house out 
onto the street, and some tree 
limbs had to be cut on a large tree 
near the Dennett home to get the 
building past that point. 

From then it was clear sailing 
un\il the truck reached Lake street, 
led by Engine II of the Fire De- 
partment, alerted by Chief Calla- 
han for any fire emergency that 
might occur in the north end while 
the moving was going on. 

At Lake street service wires a- 
cross the street couldn’t be cleared 
and had to he cut, there being a 
long delay while service crews cut 
the wires and rerouted the power. 
The house left the street at the 
Browning Laboratories and was 
trucked down the drive between the 
Lab and the Lane Funeral Home. 
Many expected the house to topple 
from the truck as it went down 
the grade, but their fears were 
groundless. 

It was a very narrow squeak, get- 
ting the building by the corner of 
the Browning building, but the men 
made it, and the house finally came 
to rest in the open space at the 
river about 5 o’clock in the morning. 

Special police details and the 
Superintendent of Streets assisted 
in the “operation moving” and sev- 
eral town officials watched the un- 
usual spectacle with quite a num- 
ber of curious spectators, consider- 
ing the time. 

Wednesday forenoon the movers 
constructed a temporary bridge a- 
cross the river and by mid after- 
noon the house was across the 
stream and well on its way to its 
final destination.

NEWSY PARAGRAPHS 


Richard Farrell, son of Patrol- 
man James K. Farrell of the police 
department, underwent an oper- 
ation for appendicitis Monday ('ve- 
iling at the Winchester Hospital. 

Dt Ynomi (I. Kkdahl of -*i4 Main 
street has been attending the an- 
nual assembly of the National 
Council of Churches Home Mission 
Division which opened Sunday 
night, December 13, at Buck Hill 
Falls, Pa. Dr. Kkdahl is director 
i*f women’s work for the Mass- 
achusetts Congregational Christian 
Conference in Boston. 

Mrs. Penelope Sessions of Rangc- 
1 ly entertained a group of friends 
with a pre-Christmas party at her 
home last night. 

Many of the younger listeners nt 
last week's De Paur Infantry 
Chorus Concert, and there were 
quite a number of them at the Com- 
munity Concerts feature in the high 
school auditorium, went hack stage 
after the program for autographs 
of the conductor, Leonard De Paur. 
Mr. De Paur was very gracious and 
signed programs for some time, or 
until all his young admirers were 
satisfied. 

Officers William Callahan and 
Mario Buzzotta had to go to 
Church street near Bacon street 
Monday forenoon and remove a 
drunken man from a truck after 
he had refused to get off for the 
driver. The driver claimed the 
man got on in Woburn and was too 
big for him to put off. He evident- 
ly wasn’t fooling, for the man, 
when booked at headquarters, tow- 
ered above both Officer Callahan 
and Officer Buzzotta, the latter by 
no means small. 

Mrs. Curtis W. Nash of Lawson 
road, wife of Associate Justice 
Nash of the Woburn District Court, 
returned home last week from the 
Winchester Hospital.

The bacteria count of this chart gives the number of bacteria found 
in one C. C. taken from the center of the sample after it had been well 
shaken. It should be remembered that another c. c. taken from the 
same sample might give a somewhat different count, but the difference 
would rarely, if ever, exceed 10 per cent.

On Thursday evening, December 
10, at the Winchester High School 
Auditorium, the Community Con- 
cert Association opened its season 
with the return engagement of the 
famous De Paur Infantry Chorus 
which has been enthusiastically ac- 
claimed by previous Winchester au- 
diences. Anyone who has heard 
this excellent group of thirty-five 
voices under the superb leadership 
of their conductor, Mr. Leonard De- 
Paur, will no doubt agree that it is 
one of the finest choruses ever to 
appear on this continent. 

The program was divided into 
five parts: 

t 

Sonpn by Contemporary Composer* 

Them* nre the Time* Herbert Haufrecht 
Niirhtimrith * Howard Rwnnnon 

The Tljtcr’n C.hoat Otto LuenlnR 

Dir*e for Two Veteran* 

Norman Dock wood 

Although there may he those 
who are not yet acclimated to all 
contemporary m u s i c, everyone 
would agree that this chorus show- 
ed how difficult harmonies can he 
beautifully executed.

The outstanding feature of this 
second group was the unusually 
clever simulated guitar vocal ac- 
companiments. Against this back- 
ground the excellent soloists showed 
up to even better advantage.

Most of these World War II i 
songs are familiar but they were ! 
given new meaning by the effective j 
interpretation of the chorus. The i 
spirited, marching rhythms and I 
delicate shadings made these songs j 
a new experience. In contrast to 
the martial quality of the other 
three, the Chinese Soldier’s Elegy 
was done in unison with simple 
poignancy and perfect synchroniz- 
ation.

In the opinion of some this and 
the Spanish group seemed to he the 
most popular. Here the chorus 
sang with unique abandon, sincerity 1 
and deep feeling. Much credit is 
due to the tenor soloist for his beau- 


tiful interpretation of "Nobody 

Knows The Trouble I See" from s 

simple melody to n deeply moving 
musical experience.

Good taste war shown in the ar- 
rangement of the program because 
after the opening reminder of our 
troubled times, the program ends 
with an affirmation of faith. Four 
religious denominations are repre- 
sented. Each selection was render- 
ed in a manner appropriate to its 
respective faith. 

Enthusiastic applause brought 
forth two encores: 

Ave Verum by Mozart and a 
calypso, The Ugly Woman. 

This program revealed the broad 
scope of the chorus’ ability and 
their most unbelievable technical 
excellence. Their many soloists 
have unusually fine diction and in- 
terpretation. At all times the con- 
trol of the conductor was evident 
and his skill as an arranger is one 
of the greatest assets the group 
could have. 

Few groups can equal them in 
tone blending and shading; few 
groups have their rare combination 
of technical skill and anesthetic 
feeling. This concert was a most 
stimulating beginning of this 
y c a r’s Winchester Community 
Concert Series.

In Boston Thursday afternoon, 
December 10, the Mary Witham 
Singers entertained for the Wo- 
men’s Republican Club with a 
Christmas program 6f carols and 
readings, presenting artistically 
the inspiration of the season. The 
carols, both familiar and unusual 
ones, were delightful, the Singers 
being notable for their sympathetic 
response to Mrs. Witham’s effective 
directing, supported by Miss Grace 
Norian at the piano. Mrs. Robert 
P. Blake’s readings were impres- 
sive, as always, and added greatly 
to the interest of the afternoon. 

For their spring programs the 
Singers do not begin rehearsals un- 
til February.

Miss Louise Kuglcr, daughter of 
Mr. and Mrs. William Kugk*i of 2d 
Winslow road, was one of the Id 
students from Mount Holyoke Col- 
lege to visit the United Nations 
Building in New York yesterday 
on an all-day trip. 

In the morn in i? there was a gen- 
eral tour of the United Nations 
Building. Miss Kugler also attend- 
ed briefing sessions by Mr. Nessim 
Shalom on the current policy prob- 
lem of the Technical Assistance 
Board, and by Mr. Hans Singer on 
financing economic development. 
Then there was luncheon with five 
members of the U. N. Secretariat, 
including Miss Sud of India and 
Mr. Amid of Pakistan. 

In the afternoon Mr. William 
Avirett of the Carnegie Endow- 
ment for International Peace con- 
ducted the group on a tour of the 
organization’s new building situat- 
ed on First avenue and 46th street. 
There Miss Anne Winslow, editor, 
spoke at a special seminar on poli- 
tical problems in economic develop- 
ment. The group then returned to 
the U. N. Building and visited 
meetings of social and economic 
committees. 

Miss Kugler is a member of the 
junior class at Mount Holyoke Col- 
lege. 


The members of the YPF at the 
Church of the Epiphany cordially 
invite the members of the parish 
and their other friends to come to 
their Annual Carol Sing in the par- 
ish house next Sunday night, De- 
cember 20th. at 7:30. Year after 
year people look forward to this 
festive occasion when everyone sits 
at small tables and sings carols 
around the lighted Christmas tree. 
Janet Graves, President of the 
YPF, is in charge of arrangements, 
with Mr. J. Raymond Graham as 
master of ceremonies leading the 
singing, and Mr. Enos Held, the 
church organist, at the piano. John 
Chapin will sing a solo, Jock Willis 
will play a piano selection, and 
Donald Folkers will read a Christ- 
mas story. During the intermis- 
sion punch and cookies will be 
served by a committee headed by 
Jane Hilgedick. 

The ushers for the evening will 
be Margaret McCreery, Patricia 
Page, Bonnie Bein, Anne Marks, 
Gretehen Long. Joan Sweetser, 
Jane Adams, Dell Mitchell, Claire 
Hilgedick, Marcia Harris, Mar- 
garet Thompson, and Diana d'El- 
I scaux. 

Also next Sunday, December 20, 
the monthly Corporate Communion 
land breakfast of the YPF will be 
held at eight in the morning. Mr. 
I and Mrs. R. Alan Page and Mr. and 
Mrs. Hugh Bein are in charge of 
the breakfast. 

On Christmas Eve, after the 
eight o’clock church service, the 
members of the YPF and also for- 
mer members home from college,

through Winchester singing Christ- 
mas carols. Everyone is invited to 
join them. Refreshments will be

Railroad to ctrrj the tone of 
(’hristmas mail and express des- 
tined for points in central and 
northern New England. 

Every efTort is being made by the 
railroad to keep an even flow of 
mail on all outbound and inbound 
trains and avoid any pile-ups or 
jams which cause delays. 

The Boston and Maine officials 
estimate the road’s part in the mail 
delivery this year as well over 
1,000 mail cars loaded with letters 
and packages. If these loaded mail 
cars were put in one single train 
it would make a mail train over 
in miles long. 

The Post Office Department at 
Washington, D. C. t has estimated 
that approximately six billion let- 
ters ami packages will be moved by 
the nation’s railroads during the 
pre-Christmas rush. 

Extra mail trains now scheduled 
on the Boston and Maine will run 
between Boston anti Greenfield, 
Boston and Haverhill, and Spring- 
field, Mass., and White River Jet., 
Vermont. Operating officials of the 
road will keep in constant touch 
with the mail movements over the 
entire system and mail will be kept 
moving to the delivery points day 
and night. 


On Wodnesda.v, December 23rd, 
Amahl and the Night Visitors will 
be played in the Jere A. Downs 
Room at 3:00 p. til. and again at 
7:30 p. m. 

Amahl and the Night Visitors 
was the first opera commissioned 
for television and had its world 
premiere on (hristmas Eve of 
1051. Mr. Mcnotti has tried suc- 
cessfully to recapture the warmth 
and feeling for tin- Three Kings 
that took tin* place of Santa Claus 
in his native Italy. 

Following the opera, selections 
from Handel's Messiah will be 
played including the Hallelujah 
Chorus.

SUPT. GILSON ADDRESSED 
HIGH SCHOOL ASSEMBLY 

Superintendent of Schools Harry 
V. Gilson was the principal speaker 
at the high school assembly last 
Friday morning. In his introduc- 
tory remarks, Principal Wade L. 
Grindlc reviewed Dr. Gilson’s dis- 
tinguished educational career, as 
Commissioner of Education for 
Maine, deputy commissioner in New 
York, and regional director for the 
Federal Office of Education. 

Responding to Mr. Grindle, Dr. 
Gilson expressed his pleasure at 
being able to meet with the students 
of the high school for the first time, 
and he said that before too long he 
hoped to become better acquainted 
with individual pupils. The Super- 
intendent noted that as a native of 
New England he was glad to be 
back in home territory after several 
years spent in the Midwest. Re- 
gardless of the attractions of other 
sections of the country,” he said, 
"no real New Englander is ever 
quite at home anywhere else.” 

In a more serious vein, Dr. Gil- 
son recalled some of his experiences 
as an educator concerned with the 
training of youth during the de- 
pression. These young people, all 
of them unemployed and most of 
them from homes suffering great 
deprivation, were called “the lost 
generation” by some observers. 
The “calamity howlers” asked what 
the country was coming to if it had 
to depend upon these aimless, hope- 
1 e s s youngsters. Nevertheless, 
neither Communism nor any other 
foreign ism made a dent on the 
majority of these youth. And, 
when Pearl Harbor came, these 
same young people, more than any 
others, gave their all to defend the 
American way of life. Their de- 
votion and sacrifice, said Dr. Gil- 
son, may well be emulated by to- 
day’s youth, as it takes up the task 
which is every generation’s, that of 
preserving and improving demo- 
cracy. 

Prior to the Superintendent’s

We fully reulize the importance of 
nutkinit prescribed medicine avail- 
able to patients it h quickly iih pos-

preservation of life. Therefore, we 


speech, Mr. Grindle announced the 
winner of the D. A. R. Good Citizen- 
ship Award which this year goes 
to Sheila Scanlon. Sheila was call- 
ed to the stage to receive congratu- 
lations for her well-earned honor.

IV SIM LIVING HERE 


Last Sunday's Boston Globe had 
a feature story by Edward L. Ja- 
mieson on Frank Fontaine, 33- 
year-old TV, radio and movie co- 
median. The story had especial 
interest in Winchester because of 
the fact that the Fontaines 
recently moved to town and 
are living at 4 OH Highland avenue, 
across the street from the old Hen- 
ry place, later the home of Mr. 
Albert K. Fomins. 

Mr. and Mrs. Fontaine have nine 
children, ranging in ages from 
Frank, Jr., 15, down to baby Eu- 
gene, only a few weeks old. They 
recently came from a seven-room 
home in Medford to their present 
11-room house on Highland avenue. 
Frank, himself, has refused many 
an enticing professional offer, en- 
tailing long periods away from 
home, to be with his family as 
much as possible. 

Since he got his start on the Ed 
Sullivan ShfTw in 1948 Mr. Fon- 
taine has twice taken his family to 
Hollywood and has returned each 
time because his wife missed her 
family and friends around Boston. 

He will stay in Winchester until 
New Years, doing one-night guest 
appearances in New York and fly- 
ing home. In January he will ap- 
pear at the Copa Cabana in Miami 
for three weeks, then come home 
for three weeks, go to Las Vegas 
for a three-weeks appearance and 
while there hop to Hollywood for 
a week or so to do a quick movie 
and a guest spot on the Jack Benny 
show! 


Some 18 boards were stolen 
from a new house under construc- 
tion for John Wilson on Hutchin- 
son road. The builder, Gordon 
Benson, 85 Ferrin street, Charles- 
town, notified the police. 




METCALF UNION DANCE 
SATURDAY 


Metcalf Union, the high school 
fellowship at the Unitarian Church, 
will hold a colorful Christmas 
dance Saturday evening, in Met- 
calf Hall from 8 to 11:30. 

The dance is called llollydnze 
Whirl, and a huge committee has 
been working to make it a success- 
ful and enjoyable affair. Members 
of Metcalf Union will meet Satur- 
day morning to decorate the hall 
in a gay, holly motif. 

Ed Strack’s well-known orches- 
tra will play for the evening. Many 
high school friends of Metcalf Un- 
ion members will attend. 

The dance committee is: 

Darrell Harvey, chairman 
Barbara Hottel 
Richard Clark 
Linda Witham 
Ted Freeman

Ben Cullen, custodian at the 
Wadleigh School, returned to his 
duties last week-end after a week

EPIPHANY TANDEM CLUB 

The Tandem Club, Church of the 
Epiphany, met at 7 (0 December 
9th in the Parish Hall for their 
regular monthly meeting. 

An overflow crowd enjoyed a 
wonderful dinner prepared by Mr. 
and Mrs. John Page and committee 
Succulent steaming hot fish chow- 
der was a feature of the meal, top 
ped off with apple pie, cheese and 
coffee. Mr. Irwin A. Williamson, 
well-known deep-sea diver and pho- 
tographer, narrated an excellent 
color film depicting his work under 
the oceans. For those who like their 
adventure rugged, Mr. Williamson 
certainly has a story backed up by 
films life and death struggle be- 
tween octopus and human, electric 
eels slithering about and man-eat- 
ing sharks skulking here and there 
provided maximum excitement for 
all. 

Mr. Williamson developed the 
first underwater camera and has 
made many underwater sequences 
for Hollywood films. He holds the 
world's official record for a deep- 
sea dive. Mr. Williamson has im- 
proved diving equipment and in- 
vented many safety devices over 
the years. He is also a writer, and

The board meeting of the Win- 
chester District Nursing Associa- 
tion whs held in the town hail l ri- 
dny, Decembei 11th. The resigna- 
tion of Mrs. Underwood Edgar was 
accepted with regiei. Mrs. Edgar 
has been a mcmuei of the finance 
committee bui has moved from 
Winchester to live in Tnnnvorth, 
New Hampshire. 

The continuing shortage of nurs- 
es has concerned Mrs. Balton, 
Congresswoman from Ohio. She 
has written to Mrs. Browne, pres- 
ident of the W. D. N. A. asking for 
suggestions on introducing bills in 
Congress to cope with this situa- 
tion. The Winchester hoard feels 
that Federal aid to nurses in train- 
ing is not the way to do this but 
rather to make available more 
scholarships to interested and de- 
serving individuals. 

The entire nursing staff has com- 
pleted a course in home accident 
prevention given in Medford by the 
Mass. Dept, of Public Health. Miss 
Petersen is taking a course at Bos- 
ton University on “Recent Advanc- 
es in Clinical Nursing.” The class 
is held two hours weekly and vari- 
ous nursing problems relating to 
geriatric, cardiac, cancer and dia- 
betic patients have been discussed. 
In all these diseases the emphasis 
is on early return to activity and re- 
habilitation of the individual. Faci- 
lities have been organized by the 
state, so that the patient unable to 
continue active physical labor may 
have his case assessed and jobs 
suggested that he is capable of 
handling. 

Miss Tucker attended the Dia 
betes Fair held in Horticultural 
Hall November lGth and 17th. Doc- 
tors, nurses and dieticians co-ope- 
rated to give a clear picture of how 
diabetes may be controlled by indi- 
vidually prescribed diet, care, exer- 
cise and insulin. 

The annual meeting of the 
W. D. N. A. will be held on January 
22nd at the home of Mrs. Dunbar 
Shanklin, 12 Everett avenue. Dr. 
Snedeeker, assistant administrator 
at the Children’s Medical Center, 
will speak on “Safety Begins at

The Star received this week a 
handsome pictorial calendar from 
Alfred D. “Al” Elliott, widely 
known building contractor and 
member of the Board of Assessors. 
“Al” has chosen the Coronet Sea- 
scape Calendar” this year and we 
predict that all fortunate enough to 
get one will like the fine ship pic- 
tures and views along shore. ‘ 


Last Sunday afternoon’s presen- 
tation of “The Messiah" and “Za- 
dok the Prirst” by the augmented 
Winchester Unitarian Choir was n 
beautifully disciplined performance 
for which all hands deserve n good 
measure of ere lit. As originally 
written, of course, “The Messiah” 
was sung by fourteen men nnd six 
boys; but nowadays we are used 
to hearing it from very large chor- 
al groups accompanied by full or- 
chestra. As far ns sheer numbers 
are concerned, the singers on Sun- 
day totaled somewhere between 
twenty nnd the current Handel nnd 
Haydn Society; but in the setting 
of the Winchester Unitarian 
Church they sounded fine. 

After nn organ prelude, the mem- 
bers of the Motion Choir went 
through a brief nnd simple, but 
effective, rhythmic candle proces- 
sional in the darkened church; nnd 
then came the impressive Corona- 
tion Anthem, “Zndok, the Priest.” 
This is a moderately complex piece 
to sing, balancing, as it does, re- 
sounding choral climaxes against 
passages of contrapuntal roulades, 
and the group handled it well. 

“The Messiah,” to be precise, 
Part I (the Christmas section) and 
the Hallelujah Chorus, was sung 
with an eloquence and assurance 
by chorus and soloists alike, and 
given a flawless organ accompani- 
ment by Weston L. Brannen, that 
brought many comments of more 
than routine approval from among 
the near-capacity gathering at the 
conclusion of the performance. 
Whether by acoustical chance or 
acute staging on the part of Direc- 
tor Mary Ranton Witham, the vari- 
ous sections seemed to balance one 
.•mother perfectly: the firm, reso- 
nant basses, the soaring sopranos, 
and the poised and melodic tenors 
and altos. It was this balance that 
produced a textural richness which 
never faltered from beginning to 
end. 

The attacks and releases were 
excellent, and the climaxes were 
produced at the top of gathering 
ground-swell effects. Particularly 
artistic was the handling of the 
chorus “His Yoke is Easy and His 
Burthen is Light,” with many shad- 
ings of section behind section. 

As regards the soloists, we lack 
the technical background to evalu- 
ate their performance in any detail, 
beyond generalizing that they all 
seemed very good indeed. Dolores 
Baldyga, soprano, Muriel Thorley, 
contralto, and John Morabito, ten- 
or, all sang with authority and 
feeling. We were especially im- 
pressed with George Fortune, bass, 
who sings with an offhand manner 
nnd facial expression splendidly be- 
lied by the control and power of a 
really fine voice. 

We have heard comments from 
several of those who attended last 
Sunday, nnd everyone seems to 
think that this was one of the out- 
standing performances this talent- 
ed group has ever given.

Winchester High School’s hockey 
team looked impressive in beating 
Beverly High, 3-1, in its season’s 
opener Tuesday afternoon at the

4:28 of the first quarter when 
freshman Leo Callahan tallied on a 
pass from Richie Johnson. Beverly 
tied it at 8:49 of the second period 
when Pete Pinciaro slapped in a 
rebound. 

Winchester went ahead at 4:02 
of the third period when Richie 
Johnson sank one after taking a 
pretty pass from Ralph Kerrigan. 
Bobby Paine added an insurance 
goal on passes from Captain Bobby 
McLaughlin and Wayne Cowles at 
6:24.

ANTONIO TOFURI 

Antonio Tofuri of 44 Holland 
street, a well known resident of 
Winchester for nearly 60 years, 
died Friday morning, December 18, 
at the Winchester Hospital after a j 
brief illness with heart disease. He 
had been in his usual health until ! 
last Thursday when he was first i 
stricken, entering the hospital at 
that time and dying the following 
morning. 

Mr. Tofuri was the son of An- ; 
gelo, and Pasqualina (Iacobcllis) 
Tofuri. He was horn December 5, 
188(5, in Piertodifuso, Province of j 
Avellino, Italy, coming to this 
country in 1005. After a few 
months residence in Swampscott 
he came to Winchester and had 
since made his home here, enjoying 
a wide circle of friends and being' 
particularly well known in the 
Italian section of the town. 

Mr. Tofuri, like so many of his 
countrymen at that time, first 
worked in Winchester on Symmes* 
Farm. Later he was employed at 
the J. O. Whitten Co., gelatine fac- 
tory on Cross street, and then for 
some years at Beggs & Cobb tan- 
nery. He last worked for the At- 
lantic Gelatine Division of General 
Foods Corporation in Woburn, re- ! 
tiring two years ago. He was a j 
member of the Christopher Colum- 
bus Society and the St. Anthony 
Club of North Woburn. 

Mr. Tofuri was twice married. 
His first wife, the former Josephine 
Rappa, died in 1939, and the fol- 
lowing year he married Mary M. 
Marrone, who survives, with three 
sons, Angelo P. R., Emilio J., and 
Pasquale A. Tofuri, all of Winches- 
ter. Also surviving are six grand- 
children, a sister, Mrs. Marianna 
Marrone of Woburn, and three 
brothers, Gennaro Tofuri of Win- 
chester and Joseph and Pasquale 
Tofuri of Taurr.si, Italy. 

The funeral was held Monday 
morning from the Lane Funeral 
Home with solemn requiem high 
mass at St. Mary’s Church. Rev. 
Fr. Charles A. Anadore was cele- 
brant, Rev. Fr. Joseph McCall, dea- 
con, and Rev. Fr. Martin Dolphin, 
subdeacon. 

Bearers were six nephews of the 
deceased, Carmine Tofuri, Joseph 
Tofuri, Ralph Fiore, Mario Mar- 
rone, all of Winchester; Anthony 
Tuzzilo of Woburn and Joseph 
Marrone of Medford. Burial was in

Carl E. Morse, a carrier at the 
Winchester postoflice for nearly 
30 years, has been promoted to su- 
pervisor of carriers at the local 
office. As such his work will be in- 
side and of a supervisory nature, 
having to do with the routes and 
schedules of the carriers and the 
working of substitutes. 

Mr. Morse was appointed a car- 
rier June 23, 1924, and with the ex- 
ception of his first three years, 
when he was assigned to the West 
Side, he has carried the East Side 
Hill route, extending from Win- 
throp street to the Medford line. 

Mr. M orse makes his home at 
| 17 Lloyd street, and is married to 
the former Priscilla Laraway of 
i Winchester. They have three 
daughters, Mrs. Charles Phippen, 
a senior at University of Massa- 
chusetts; Marjorie, an employee of 
the Second National Bank of Bos- 
ton; and Nancy, a senior at Win- 
chester High School.

sible for a minister to go to Pales- 
tine and visit some of the scenes 1 
where Christ lived and labored. 

Through the efforts of Colonel 
Lester Godwin of Winchester and 
Chaplain Charles Carpenter, head 
of the U. S. Air Force Chaplains, 

Rev. Snook was privileged to con- 
duct a preaching mission last 
Spring, in Lybia and French Moroc- 
co, North Africa. He will plan, 
with the permission of the local 
church, to spend time in research, 
regarding some of the places which 
highlighted the ministry of Jesus 
and visit these particular scenes, 
bringing back a report to his 
people.

The junior high school orchestra, 
boys’ and girls’ glee clubs, and 
members of a dramatic group com- 
bined their talents to present a 
gay Christmas assembly last Fri- 
day morning at the high school 
auditorium. Borrowing from the ! 
world of commercial television, the 
youngsters had prepared a make- 
believe television program. 

The master of ceremonies, Larry 
Longworth, handled his role in 
good Fd Sullivan style and kept 
the long program running smooth- 
ly. After his introduction by 
Kathleen Doherty, the announcer, 
Larry presented the junior high 
orchestra under the direction of 
Mr. Theodore Janner. This year’s 
group is composed of 50 members, 
30 of whom are in the string sec- 
tion. The several selections, well 
played by the orchestra, showed 
the results of much practice and 
training. 

The following pupils performed 
in the quartets or trios: 

Betsy Burton 
Aprille Godwin 
Sarah Fish 
Richard Niles 
Carl Masi 
John Bird 
David Littleton 
Beverly Bonnell 
Janet Donovan 
Jane Overacker 
Ann Neville 
Debbie Jope 
Judy Murray 

Following the orchestral selec- 
tions, Stephen Enright, in his role 
of president of “Christmas Spirit. 
Inc.,” was introduced to say a few 
words. Christmas in many lands 
was the subject of the next group 
of entertainers. Linda Baker sang 
a French carol, while Ledger Mitch- 
ell described Christmas in Italy. 
Other countries represented were 
the following: 

Sweden, by David Van Ummcr- 
sen 

Germany, by Paul Sullivan 

England, by Mary Welden 

Holland, by Brenda Cowles 

Spain, by Judy Cussen 

Much enjoyed by the audience of 
students and parents were the num- 
bers sung by boys’ and girls’ glee 
clubs under the direction of Miss 
Eleanor Anifantis. The program 
presented by the boys’ glee club 
included: 

1. “We Three Kings of Orient 
Are” — soloists, Edward Morse, 
William Toppi, and Donald Seaver 

2. “Silent Night” — soloist, Sam 
Orth 

3. “God Rest Ye Merry Gentle- 
men” — soloists, David Harkins, 
Charles O’Connor, Dominic Serra- 
tore, Jonathan Handy. 

Especially noteworthy was the 
solo work of Sam Orth. 

Another fine part of the assem- 
bly was the reading by Vivian 
Loustanau of “The First Christmas 
Story.” Vivian also wrote the 
script for the entire TV program. 

The program ended with the | 
singing of three songs by the girls’ i 
glee club: 

i 1. “Santa Claus is Coming to! 
Town” 

j 2. “White Christmas” — duet by: 
I Barbara and Eleanor Graustuck | 

3. “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Rein- 
I deer.” 

Others taking part in the assem- 
bly were Jean Elliott, who assist- 
ed the “sponsor”; and the members 
of the stage crew, David Purring- 
ton, Jack Ghirardini, and Charles 
Bond. Miss Charlotte LeClaire, of 
the junior high school faculty, was 
the program coordinator.

An estimated 35,000 persons con-

below the 1952 record of 57,000 
cases, but it was still the sixth 
straight year of high polio inci- 
dence. Four out of five needed

CHRISTMAS EVERYWHERE” 
AT LINCOLN SCHOOL 


“Christmas Everywhere” was the 
title of the delightful program pre- 
sented by the pupils of the Lincoln 
School in the school auditorium on 
the evening of December 17. Much 
study and work had gone into the 
preparation of this assembly, and 
the results were both entertaining 
and educational to the enthusiastic 
audience. Even the most erudite of 
parents must have learned some- 
thing he hadn’t known before about 
the celebration of Christmas in 
other lands. 

All the youngsters in Grades 
one through six shared in the fol- 
lowing program: 

The First Christmas — Grade 3, 
Mrs. Janet McGrath. 

Christmas in Switzerland — 
Grade 1, Mrs. Mary Sullivan.

Christmas in Mexico — Grade 4, 
Mrs. Elizabeth McDonough.

Christmas in the Netherlands — 
Grade 2, Miss Helen Cullen. 

Christmas in England — Grade 
5, Miss Irene Mitchell. 

Christmas in Germany - Austria 
— Grade 6, Mr. Robert Jackson. 

Christmas in the United States 

Grade 2, Miss Margaret Harkins. 

Piano accompaniment was played 
by Mrs. Lucy Wilcox Cushman. 

The generous assistance of the 
Lincoln Mothers’ and Dads’ Clubs 
was greatly appreciated by the 
pupils and their teachers. The 
preparation of many of the stage 
properties and costumes, the mak- 
ing of the wreaths, the wonderful 
Christmas tree, and the delicious 
refreshments — all were the work 
of helpful parents. 

Attracting much favorable com- 
ment was the “stained-glass win- 
dow”, nine feet high, which was 
constructed by the children in Mrs. 
Walsh’s room. Miss Virginia 
French, elementary school super- 
visor of art, gave them much valu- 
able advice on this difficult project.

CLEANSING 


The Winchester High hoopsters 
will open their Middlesex League 
schedule at home next Wednesday 
night, December 30, when they en- 
tertain Melrose High. With three 
preliminary games providing valu- 
able and much- needed experience, 
the Indians are confident of suc- 
cessfully opening their quest for a 
fourth straight league champion- 
ship against the Red Raiders. 

With a new coach in Joe Austin, 
the coach who successfully reju- 
venated Melrose High football last 
fall, the visitors are expected to be 
stronger on the court this winter. 
In fact, the entire league seems to 
possess the greatest all-around 
strength of recent years as indi- 
cated by the success of the league 
teams in their preliminary games. 
Lexington is the pre-season favorite 
to cap the title but Reading, Bel- 
mont, Stoneham, Wakefield, and 
Concord are all playing winning 
ball against strong opposition. 

Judging from the first three 
games Coach Bartlett has decided 
upon a seven-man varsity but not 
on a starting five as he has used 
different combinations in the con- 
tests. Co-captains Joe Dilorio and 
Dave Pratt, Jim Wright, Buddy 
McKinley, Lou Farrell, Joe Bellino, 
and John Lynch make up the var 
sity team with Charlie Stevens, 
Pete Gove, and Bill Ross in reserve. 
The team has been making steady 
progress and hopes to break out 
with an improved scoring punch 
against Melrose, Wednesday night. 
The preliminary game between the 
two second teams will get underway 
at 7:30 p. m. 


HOME FOR 

CHRISTMAS VACATION 


A capacity audience attended the 
presentation of an all-school Christ- 
mas pageant at the George Wash- 
ington School on the evening of 
December 10. “Christmas In Many 
Lands” was the theme selected for 
the performance in which all class- 
es, with the exception of the kin- 
dergarten, participated. In all, 205 
children helped to portray Christ- 
mas customs in our own land, Eng- 
land, Holland, Norway, Italy, and 
Germany. 

The narrators for the various 
episodes included: 

Thomas Purtle, Ronalee Fair- 
field, Parker Gray, Patricia Tofuri, 
Janet Cussen, Paul Francis, Ann 
Abbott, Nanette Marshall, Andy 
Sjoholm, Sherwood Kelley, Gerald 
Ducharme, Judith Towle, James 
Rravacos, Suzanne Foster, Robert 
Korwatch, and Carol Gilberto. 

The program by episodes: 

1. The Night Before Christmas in 
U. S. A. — Grade 1. 

2. Sinkerklaus and Black Pete In 
Holland — Grade 2. 

3. The Yule Log in England — 
Grade 3. 

4. T h e Cratchctts’ Christmas 
Dinner — Grade 5. 

5. The Legend of La Bafana — 
Grade 3-4 Combination. 

G. The Norwegian Legend of The 
Littlest Spruce — dramatized by 
Grade 4. 

7. The Origin of the Christmas 
Carol — “Silent Night” Grade G. 

A vested choir gave a musical 
bakground throughout the perfor- 
mance. Drama, pantomime, choric 
speaking, singing, and creative 
dancing were the media used in 
portraying the story of Christmas. 
All of the scenery was made by 
children in Grades 3 through G.

Miss Adelc Jonah, sophomore at 
Emerson College, had the honour 
of being chosen with four others of 
her class to present the program 
for the Sophomore Convocation, 
given at the college theatre, on Fri- 
day, December 11th. Miss Jonah 
gave as her presentation a portion 
from the well known play, “One 
Sunday Afternoon” which was en- 
thusiastically received by the au- 
dience. 

She also played an active part in 
the show “Deadline ’54” given that 
week by the staff of the college 
paper “The Berkeley Beacon”, and 
on Friday night, December 18th, 
had an important role in the Sopho- 
more production “Happy Birth-

A group of animated Christmas 
cards made up the attractive pro- 
gram which the pupils of the 
Noonan School presented for the 
enjoyment of their parents and 
friends on the evening of December 
17. All the grades participated in 
the program which was divided in- 
to two parts, the first portraying 
the gay and youthful side of Christ- 
mas, and the second expressing the 
more serious and religious aspect 
of the season. Original dances and 
script gave evidence of much hard 
work by the pupils.

GRADUATED FROM 
AIR FORCE CANDIDATE SCHOOL 


Raymond B. Tourtellot, husband 
of Emily H. Tourtellot of 21 Gover- 
nor’s avenue was graduated from 
Air Force Officer Candidate School 
at Lackland Air Base, San Antonio, 
Texas, on December 11 and com- 
missioned a second lieutenant in the 
Air Force Reserve. 

Tourtellot attended Tufts College 
in Medford, Massachusetts for 3Vfc 
years before he joined the Air 
Force in 1952. He was stationed at 
Lake Charles AFB, Louisiana be- 
fore his appointment to OCS last 
June. His parents, Mr. and Mrs 
Carl T. Tourtellot also live in Win- 
chester. 


Approximately 237,000 children 
in 21 communities received gamma 
globulin inoculations against polio 
paralysis in 1953. This year, the 
March of Dimes hopes to provide 
enough funds to inoculate at least 
2,000,000 with GC,. 


The children of the Lincoln 
School kindergarten enjoyed a spe- 
cial Christmas program of their 
own on Tuesday morning. Every- 
one in the class had a part in 
presenting a gay little play entitled, 
“Christmas Eve at the North Pole”. 
Members of the cast were as fol- 
lows:

rhythm band. 


On Sunday afternoon at 2:00 
p. m. at Noonan School, Winchester 
Council No. 210 Knights of Colum- 
bus held their annual Christmas 
Party for children. The party was 
exceptionally fine and the kiddies 
enjoyed themselves to the hilt. It 
was certainly gratifying to the 
committee to see the youngsters so 
happy, and it can be truthfully said 
that the children behaved in a fine 
manner. 

First on the agenda was movies 
with Tom Drapeau in charge of 
this function. Shrill cries of de- 
light rent the air during the show- 
ing of the Punch and Judy film 
followed by the cat and mouse car- 
toon entitled “South Pole or Bust”, 
a Night Before Christmas Santa 
film and a hilarious school room 
cartoon with Mary’s lamb seeking 
admittance despite teacher’s no. 
Upon entering the School Hall the 
kiddies were presented with Christ- 
mas candies to munch on during the 
films then Jim Cullen took over for 
carol singing and it must be said 
that only Jim could be heard in this 
department since he has the 
“voice”. Every announcement of 
Jim’s was beard and the program 
went smoothly. We doubt if any- 
one else could have been heard 
over the merriment of the children. 
Norm Harrold accompanied on the 
piano and did a fine job. Soloists 
from among the kiddies were John 
McDonough and a duet by Marion 
Nolan and Patsy Abbott. Silent 
Night, Rudolph, Jingle Bells and 
all the rest were sung by the en- 
tire assembly. Even Santa Claus 
favored with his rendition of the 
“First Noel”. Ed Boucher arrang- 
ed for Santa’s coming. The final 
number was the appropriate 
“America”. Then the children for 
tified with ice cream lined up order- 
ly to receive a present from Santa 
and the party came to a close for 
another year. The committee fol 
lows:

WINCHESTER WINS 

The Winchester High basketeers 
added their second straight triumph 
of the season by defeating Dedham 
High at Dedham last Friday night 
by a score of 50-27. The final score 
was not really indicative of the 
game itself as it was a hard fought 
contest until the midde of the third 
quarter before the Indians pulled 
away to a decisive victory. The 
Dedham zone defense bothered the 
locals as they were not working the 
ball well and were not shooting 
with their normal degree of accur- 

y. 

Winchester opened the game as 
though they were going to make an 
easy contest of it, racing away to 

14-7 lead at the end of the first 
quarter. Dedham fought back in 
the second quarter to play the 
locals on even terms so that Win- 
chester held the same seven-point 
margin, 25-18, at the half. The 
first three minutes of the third 
period saw Dedham close the gap 
to 27-24 but from that point the 
Indians took complete charge of the 
game as they outscored Dedham 
25-3 over the last 13 minutes of 
play. 

Jim Wright, Dave Pratt, and Joe 
Dilorio sparked the Winchester 
surge in the last part of the game 
to emerge as top scorers for the 
Indians. John Lynch and Dave 
Pratt led in the vital rebounding 
department for Winchester while 
Jim Wright played a strong floor 
game while pacing the scorers 
with 13 points. Coach Bartlett felt 
that while their shooting was a bit 
off, his charges played smoother 
ball and the charts showed that the 
Indians made 14 less errors than in 
their opener last week. 

After a slow start the Winches- 
ter Seconds had an easy game in 
running up a 41-13 score over the 
Dedham Seconds in the preliminary 
game. Pete Gove was the only 
local to hit for double figures with 
14 points while Bob Smith and Bert 
Knceland looked good for Win- 
chester. 

The summary: 

Winchester Illirh 


This eleventh week of bowling 
finds the top team floundering again 
and cannot seem to get themselves 
o-ordinated.

stamping out the only epidemic

Hummer Academy at the annual 
Christmas dinner last Friday eve- 
ning in the Alumni Gymnasium. 

He is one of three Winchester 
boys returning home from the acad- 
emy for the Christmas holidays, 
the others being Thomas H. Parker, 
son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Par- 
ker of 11 Sheffield road, and Louis 
A. Towner of 37 Wildwood street. 

Both Parker and Towner won 
their letters in pony soccer and the 
former has been a member of the 
rifle club as well as being on the 
honor roll this year. 


CHRISTMAS PARTY 


The annual Christmas party of 
the Winchester Trust Company 
employees was held on Wednesday 
evening at the Winchester Country 
Club with dinner being served in 
the grill room. 

Miss Helen Hogan, admirably 
portraying the difficult role of Santa 
Claus, distributed gifts to each one 
present. Vocal solos by Miss Ma- 
rion Dyson and Robert Adams, with 
Miss Lafayette at the piano, wen. 
enthusiastically applauded. 

Highlighting the evening of en- 
joyment was the awarding of 
special prizes to Mrs. Helen Chaput, 
Miss Celia Lafayette, Miss Cathe- 
rine Callahan and Mr. Robert 
Adams. 


It is wonderful to see that the 
enthusiasm and clamor is going 
strong among t ho young ns well as 
the old. This week 1 would like to 
make a few comments about St. 
Mary’s team. This team includes 
great number of has been top 
bowlers whose age has finally 
caught up to them. We have Nick 
Molea whose latest addition has 
taken its toll. The boy of the 
team Mr. Youth himself “Curly 
Locks” Chick, need I say more. Sir 
honorable Mr. Frongillo, lie’s not 
the power behind this team. “Fire- 
bug” Butsie Mistrctta who always 
has hells ringing in his cars. “Gas 
pump” Joe Tofuri, needs a little 
more weight to hold the ball. 

Eddie Figione should have no ex- 
cuses at all. 

Whispers and comments heard 
around the alley: The originator of 
the new fashion for men, four inch- 
es above the ankle, was set many 
years ago by our good friend 
Mingy, or hadn’t you noticed how 
proud he is of his ankles. It’s a 
good thing that “Wedding Bells” 
Boh is not loose more than Wed- 
nesday nights, he sure runs his bat- 
tery down. Does Vocci go to bed 
with his brown fedora? Is it true 
that the boy bowler “Curly Locks” 
Chick is low man on this team this 
week, A question that must be 
answered for “Snags O’Toole” does 
S. O. I. stand for Sons of Italy or 
Sons of Ireland. 

An urge for poetry: 

Chance 

In the world came a man 
Who in his country’s need 
Became a wiry captain 
Who was always in the lead 

He loved a game of chance 
In battle or in poker 
And often did he prance 
Specially when he won a porker 

Vocci will he the Chef 
When big and fat he will get 
For the little devil is deaf 
He’ll never be Vocci’s pet. 

What an uproar the toupee con- 
test has started. Everyone’s trying 
to ge't in on the act. His honor 
Mingy has been swamped for en- 
try blanks. Believe it or not even 

Creeper” Gene wanted a blank. 
After hours of eliminations his 
honor raised the amount of semi- 
finalists to eight instead of six. The 
following are the lucky semi-final- 
ists: Ben Gilotti, Ralph Tauro, M. 
D. Sarraca, John Bertolucci, Dom 
Provinzano, “Goldy Locks” Randy, 
“Curly Locks” Chick and Peter 
Provinzano. May the best man 
win. 

Our Wednesday night must raffle 
was won by Phil Maraca. 

May I extend to you at this time 
a very Merry Christmas and the 
best to you all.

One of the largest turnouts of 
candidates for the Freshman bas- 
ketball team has been cut down to 
a working squad of 13 by coaches 
Knowlton und Bartlett. Those sur- 
viving the cuts and making up the 
first team are Dave Bergquist, Ken 
Brown, John Chapin, Ed Fitzgerald, 
Jim Fitzgerald, Tom Hooper, Den- 
nis Keane, Bill Mason, Bob Pur- 
rington, Quentin Roberts, Ronald 
Roberts, John Russo, and Roger 
Symmes. Selected as manugers 
for the team are John Foster, Chris 
Michelsen, and Dave Pingree. 

Practising daily in preparation 
for a rugged 12-game schedule, this 
year’s group shows considerable 
promise. In addition to displaying 
considerable ability, this will be one 
of the largest teams to represent 
the Freshmen in recent years. They 
were undefeated a year ago as a 
Junior High team and may very 
well post a similar enviable record 
this season. Couch Bartlett has 
gone on record as saying that there 
are more good players in this group 
than of any Freshman group in the 
past five years. 

Although no starting five has 
been chosen as yet, the quintet 
seen most often working together 
consists of Roger Symmes and Dave 
Bergquist at forward, John Chapin 
at center, und the Roberts’ twins, 
Quentin and Ronald, at the guard 
berths. This quintet packs good 
height and aggressiveness in the 
front court with speed and play- 
rnaking ability in the hack court. 
Big Jim Fitzgerald, Bill Mason, and 
“Moe” Russo are others who look 
particularly good and may well 
earn a starting berth for the open- 
ing gume with the Woburn Fresh- 
men on Junuury 5. Alreudy Coach 
Ted Burtlett has some of these boys 
tabbed for future varsity greatness 
with only the necessary desire and 
hard work on the part of the hoys 
needed to develop into another

KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM 
NOT ONE 

Editor of the Star: 

According t - an A. P. dispatch, 
dated New York, Decembei in, a 
world fa moii' scientist advised “a 
former employe of sensitive gov- 
ernment installation,” not to say 
whether he had been a communist, 
and not to coopernte with the in- 
vestigating committee, or “any 
other committee of a similar 
nature, on the basis of the Fifth 
Amendment.” 

In the* libraries of the brains of 
the men who have made this coun- 
try great, the volumes on the 
shelves of knowledge have been 
counterbalanced by those on the 
shelves of wisdom, that have result- 
ed from an early and life-long con- 
tact with a stern and practical ! 
world. Memory reveals the long- j 
forgotten events recorded there, 
and thus knowledge, tempered by [ 
wisdom, makes an individual of 
poise. 

"Knowledge and wisdom, far 
f mm being one, have oftimes no 
connection.” Men surfeited with 
knowledge may he mentally un- 
balanced from lack of wisdom and 
are sometimes called odd or pecu- 
liar. 

In these turbulent times, when 
alien enemies, seeking to destroy 
our government, have easily in-

that it is particularly appropriate 
to recognize, among our many 
blessings, the* grand work of the 
Winchester Star and the impor- 
tance of its service to the commu- 
nity. Not only have you strength- 
ened our community ties by a broad 
yet intimate coverage of the news, 
hut your timely support has been 
the keynote of success for many 
worthwhile civic drives and chari- 
table ventures. 

It is hard to put in words, for 
example, the wonderful part you 
played in furthering our New Eng- 
land Junior Tennis Development 
program in 1053. You deserve our 
appreciation and thanks, first of 
all, for sponsoring a drive for 
racquets which were needed to help 
worthy youngsters get a real start. 
You were directly instrumental in 
our collecting over eighty racquets 
right here in Winchester! 

Through timely reporting, you 
heralded the formation of the New 1 
England Junior Tennis League, and 


vantageous if the lights for skat- 
ing were changed from Big, to 
Little Winter Pond. At some ex- 
pense this change was made. 

The weather did not permit 
skating until last week-end. It was 
perhaps noticed that the lights 
were not used, because all the lights 
and most of the sockets into which 
the bulbs were placed had been 
broken by stones thrown by ir- 
responsible children. 

So far this year the Town has 
spent $500 for vandalism. These 
lights were installed for the enjoy- 
ment of all. We hope those who 
| are interested in this sport will co- 
operate with us and immediately 
1 report to the police any acts of 
I vandalism they find. 

We shall attempt to notify the 
in our opinion, the 
skating is safe at Winter Pond by 
a notice to that effect placed on the 
bulletin hoard in the square. We 
wish to take this opportunity to 
make it clear, however, that the 
final decision as to whether or not 
the ice is safe is up to the parents 
and not the Park Department. 
Very truly yours,

SINGLE SESSION DAY 



(■Kit AM) S. SEMINATOKE 

Eighteen year old Woburn boy 


It is good to see Winchester 
maintaining its prominence in ten-! 
nis in the ranking of Blair Hawley 
No. 1 in New England tennis sin- 
gles and doubles. Winchester had 
one of the first tennis courts to he 
laid out in the last on the old Prince 
estate on Wedge Pond years ago 
and since that time has contributed 
its fair share to the game. Tennis 
as we know it now in Winchester 
,s the product of Rev. William S. 
Packer, whose leva for and devotion 
to the game resulted in the rather] 
unusual facilities for tennis which 
the town enjoys. “Bill" Packer 
gave much to Winchester tennis, 
particularly to girls tennis here.! 
ni* own daughter, Louise, “Susy” 
Gutter, “Syr Hatch, Helen Carroll 
and Polly Kimball, to name only a 
few, were girls who made their 
mark in tennis in Massachusetts. 
Now Mr. Hawley is turning his at- 
tention to interesting the town’s 
hoys, among others, in tennis as a 
competitive sport, just as Little 
League baseball is awakening in- 
terest among younger boys in what 
has always been considered our na- 
tional game. Tennis is not only 
a great sport, hut a game capable 
4 1 f testing competitors to the limit. 

The Bill Packers and Blair Haw- 
leys, to say nothing of the Dottie 
Hills, deserve the hacking of all 
sports lovers in their effort to sell 
our young people the game. 


This could have been as sad a 
Christmas in five Winchester 
,omes as it will be in the home of 
he Woburn young man who was 
tiled Tuesday afternoon when his 
axicah collided with a train on 
he Hill street crossing in the 
Corth End. Some or all of the five 
Vinchester boys who weie riding 
n the automobile that got out of 
ontrol and struck three trees on 
lorder road Tuesday night could 
a.-ily have shared the taxi driver s 
ate. We are all happy that they did 
iot and can join in hoping that oth- 
r accidents involving our young 
icople turn out no worse. The ope- 
ation of automobiles, especially at 
light, is becoming more and more 
la nge rous as traffic hazards grow

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO OUR 
MEN IN THE ARMED FORCES 


Members of the Mystic Glee 
Club made their annual Christmas- 
time visit to the family at the 
Home for the Aged Wednesday 
evening, singing for the family and 
staff of the home. Refreshments 
were served by t lie staff and mem- 
bers of the Board and a social hour 
was enjoyed. 


Editor of tlu* Star: 

The Military Manpower Commit- 
tee wishes to extend a safe and 
happy New Year to all our local 
young men in uniform. The writer 
wishes to thank them for their 
Christmas cards and letters, it was 
so nice to hear from them and 
to see them as they came home on 
leave. 

I know you fellows will realize 
it is impossible for me to reach you 
all, except through The Star, when 
I tell you some 1,200 men have en- 
tered the Armed Forces after con- 
sultation with me — they come 
from all over our State and from 
many other states. Then there are I 
all the Career men. Inasmuch as 
they do not get The Star, I must ! 
reach them individually which is i 
some job. 

I wish the people of Winchester 
might see all our local men in uni- 
form in one group. What a tine 
example of Young America they 
are. They are doing so well and 
everybody would he just as proud 
of them as I am. Overseas they 
will he great examples of ambas- 
sadors of goodwill and the Amer- 
ican way of life. 

The Medford Recruiting Station 
joins us in wishing you success in 
your various fields and the very , 
best for 1954. 

Cordially yours, 

Mrs. K. B. Toye, Chairman

V. Gilson this week released the 
text of tlu* notice which has been 
sent to the parents of elementary 
school children regarding tlu* school 
committee policy on daily school 
sessions during severe winter 
weather. Attention was also called 
to tlu* announcement that, during 
the present schedule, No School 
signals for the afternoon session 
for elementary schools will be at 
12:05 p. m. rather than 12:40 p. m. 
The full statement is printed below. 
Winchester Public Schools 
Winchester, Massachusetts 

December 18, 1953 

Dear Patron: 

Your attention is called to a 
policy established by the School 
Gommittee on daily school sessions: 

1. Inasmuch as the only reason 
for the Single Session Day is to 
protect the pupil from traffic hazard 
caused by snow accumulation, the 
present schedule of school hours 
will remain until severe weather 

ets in. 

2. When in the judgment of the 
Superintendent such hazard docs 
exist, he will give written notice to 
the parents that a Single Session 
schedule will be put into effect. Such 
a schedule will he: 

8:30 a. m. — Schools Open 
2:00 p. m. — Schools Close 

A lunch hour of thirty minutes 
will he allowed all pupils. 

It is suggested that for safety 
reasons, the pupils remain at school 
during the lunch period. However, 
any pupil who can go homo and 
return within the thirty minute 
time limit will he permitted to do 
so. 

Parents shall write the school as 
to their decision on whether they 
wish their child to remain, or go 
home. No Change In This Decision 
Shall Be Made After This Policy 
Goes I to Effect. A child cannot re- 
main one day and go home another. 

The Single Session schedule will 
continue until terminated by vote <>f 
the School Committee. 

During the present schedule, the 
Elementary Schools will, as usual, 
he closed at noon in tlu* event of 
extreme weather. No School 
Signals for afternoon session for 
elementary schools will be at 12:05 
p. m. rather than 12:40 p. m. 

Your sincere co-operation will be 
appreciated. 

Very truly yours, 

Harry V. Gilson 
Superintendent of Schools 



MISS ALICE E. CARY 

MISS10NER TO SPEAK HERE i 


A NEW YEAR’S THOUGHT 


The New Year i** as good a time 
as any — perhaps the best — to be- 
gin again this business of life; to 
try to make amends; to give prom- 
ises; to hope and to work for the 
better things in life. We mean 
things like a good and wholesome 
community. It can he done, you 
know. Three hundred Red Feather 
agencies in Metropolitan Boston 
show you the way daily. 

How do they do it? They take 
one unhappy or deprived person and 
add a simple pleasure, sometimes 
free, like sunshine and fresh air; 
sometimes costly, like precious 
penicillin or priceless talent. 

Red Feather agencies then mix 
in a little time, a lot of hard work, 
as much money as can be spared, 
and all the love and kindness at 
their disposal. Result: one New 
Year's cocktail that beats them all 
because it means a new year of 
happiness and hope for someone. 

S ou help, you know, every time 
you think about your neighbor and 
care about him, every time you dig 
down deep to give a little something 
to Red Feather. Making a com- 
munity good and wholesome is not i 
easy nor is it cheap. But, because 
it has been done and is being done 
daily, you can laugh at the skeptics 
who scoff and shrug away their 
responsibilities to one another. 

Edgar Guest said it nicely: 
There are thousands to tell you it 
cannot be done. 

There are thousands to prophesy 
failure; 

There are thousands to point out to 
you one by one, 

The dangers that wait to assail 
you. 

But just buckle in with a hit of grin, 

Just take off your coat and go to

Just start in to sing as you tackle

That “cannot be done,” and you’ll

1 “The Christian Church as it is j 
developing around the world is in- j 
deed the hope of tlu* future and the 
major factor in binding the world ' 
together in peace,” says Miss Alice' 
L. Gary of Boston, Massachusetts, 
Secretary of the American Board 
(of Commissioners for Foreign Mis-] 
I si oas for Japan, Micronesia and the 
Philippines recently hack from a 
more than five months administra- ] 
five tour around the world. She 
will speak Tuesday, January 12, at 
1 2:00 p. m. to the Mission Union 
Guild, First Congregational Church, 
Winchester. 

Miss Cary’s trip, made mostly by 
air-, included visits to those “Chris- 
tians from Boston” in the South 
Seas who became known and loved 
by the American Armed Forces dur- 
ing World War II. To them, as they 
celebrated the 100th Birthday of 
the planting in the islands of the 
Christian church by Congregational I 
missionaries, she presented a gold ] 
lined silver Baptismal Bowl.

Curfew laws fcu 

WAYWARD YOulH 60 BACK 
10 HEDIEVAl PRAGUE 

Curfew is still a live issue. As 
problems of juvenile delinquency 
mount, civu authorities from coast 
to coast are dusting ott long unen- 
forced regulations and considering 
new ones. 

A Washington, 1>. t\, commis- 
sioner has suggested a law that 
would keep children under 112 oil 
the capital streets at night. Under 
and oid curfew ordinance, a Los 
Angeles judge lined the parents of 
cignt boys who had ambushed and 
attacked a small group of adults. 

Curfew restrictions go hack at 
least to medieval times, says the 
National Geographic Society. The 
word itself is from the French 
“couvre-feu” (cover lire), an ex- 
pression introduced into England 
with the Norman invasion, llut 
the practice was already old when 
William the Conqueror came. 
Anglo- Saxon towns in the reign of 
Allred the Great rang a nightly 
hell, warning inhabitants to close 
their doors and cover their tires. 

Saved Lives And Property 

Curfew was a life-and-death 
matter in the Middle Ages, when 
most houses were built of wood, 
and a live ember could start a con- 
flagration that would destroy a 
city. 

It also served as a protection 
against the footpads and robbers 
who swarmed the highways and the 
dark, unpoliced streets. The toll- 
ing of the bell, or in some cases the 
blowing of a horn, at 7 or 8 o’clock, 
announced that all honest men 
should be at home, and that any- 
one wandering abroad was liable to 
so vc re puni sh m ent. 

Through the centuries, curfew 
lias been a potent curb upon plot- 
ters against those in authority. 
The Nazi occupation forces of 
World War II used it widely, step- 
ping up the penalties as defeat 
neared and local acts of sabotage 
increased. 

The famous 19th-century poem, 
“Curfew Must Not King Tonight” 
told a romantic story set in Eng- 
land under Cromwell’s iron rule. 
Its gentle heroine saved her Loyal- 
ist lover, doomed to die at curfew 
time, by clinging to the tongue of 
the hell, thus muffling it. 

Curfew Still Kings 

As a tradition, many English 
towns and villages still sound the 
curfew bell each evening at 8 or 9 
o’clock. Even in London the custom 
is observed on the old hell at Lin- 
coln Inn. Chester, Lichfield and 
Totnes not only toll the curfew hour 
but add the day of the month. 

The Puritans brought the curfew 
to the American colonies. Eventu- 
ally the custom spread south and 
west and took the form of muni- 
cipal ordinances prohibiting young 
people from appearing on the 
streets after certain hours. 

Thousands of such laws remain 
on the hooks, though they are en- 
forced only periodically. In 19*12, 
according to a report of the Amer- 
ican Municipal Association, from 
10 to 90 percent of all American 
cities had adopted curfew restric- 
tions. Since then, the Association’s 
records indicate that the number 
lias grown steadily larger. 


The 1954 polio vaccine trials will 
be the largest scientifically con- 
trolled tests in medical history. 


BOTTOM IS TOPS 
ON SARA ISLAND 

Snhn is a tiny Ihitcn island in 
t lie Cftribbrnn where people speak 
English, boats are built on nimin* 
taintops, there nr • nt least two Wo 
men for every man, and Bottom is 
topside. 

Moreover, says the National 
Geographic Society, Saba is one of 
the few golden Caribbean isles 
which make no special play for 
tourists. There are scarcely a half 
dozen room for guests. 

Saba is five square miles of vol- 
canic rock midway between Puerto 
Kico and Guadeloupe. It is home 
to sonic 1,000 people. Of compar- 
atively recent geological origin, 
Saha rises sheer from the sea, a 
single cone more than 2,850 feet 
high. Lashing at the base, a 
pounding surf seems to delight in 
the fact that Saba lias no harbor. 

To approach Saba from the 
schooner which calls weekly from 
St. Kitts, a visitor must trust in 
luck and the seamanship of the 
island boatmen. Skillfully man- 
euvering their surf boats to the 
crest of a wave, they dash between 
threatening rocks to a crash larnl- 
ing at Fort Bay, a bench about as 
big as a bedspread. 

deeps, the only vehicles on the 
island, transport visitors upward 
«*n Saba’s new concrete rood built 
laboriously by hand. It winds up 
the mountain through a fissure in 
tin* reddish-brown volcanic rock. 

At the top is Bottom. Bottom, 
with some 300 people, is the prin- 
cipal one of four villages and the 
seat of the island’s government. It 
nestles in the basin of an extinct 
crater — the only reasonably level 
area on the island. 

In other villages, which cling 
precariously to steep mountain- 
sides, the descendants of early Eng- 
lish settlers built boats of cedar, 
cypress and spruce. When they 
are ready for launching, they are 
carried to the sea on men’s 
shoulders, or lowered down the 
cliffs on ropes. 

Besides boatbuilding, the prim- 
ary occupation is raising vege- 
tables in the volcanic soil. Crops 
stay alive on Saba with the nightly 
aid of a heavy dew. 

Women augment the family in- 
come by exporting mail order 
customers bits of fine Spanish em- 
broidery. Most of the young men 
go to sea or emigrate to the oil re- 
fining islands of Curacao and 
Aruba, also Dutch. 

They contribute by mail to the 
support of their parents and sis- 
ters. But their absence results in 
a dearth of marriageable men. 

That is why Saban women 
anxiously await the weekly schoon- 
er and the occasional steamer. The 
.ship may bring a payment for their 
embroidery, a check from a brother 
overseas, or who knows — an 
eligible bachelor. 


BLOCKADES ARE AS OLD 
AS NAVAL WAR 

Blockades arc legal under inter- 
national rules of war, but only if 
they have been declared and can 
| be enforced. 

Declaration serves the humane 
I purpose of putting neutral states 
on notice that their ships may be 
seized, the cargoes jettisoned or 
confiscated, and the crews arrested, 
should they try to take food, arms 
or aviation gasoline to a warring j 
nation. 

An unwritten rule, however, in- 
jects a practical note. If the block- 
ading power has not enough ships, 
or more lately, aircraft, to enforce 
its blockade, then anybody may 
ignoiv it and still stay within in- 
ternational law. 

Closed Axis Ports 

In World War II, Britain closed! 
the ports of Germany and Italy, 
hut no blockade was proclaimed, 
says the National Geographic So- 
ciety. 

Germany, on the other hand, an- 
nounced a submarine blockade of 
the British Isles, gaining the legal 
power to halt or destroy all ship- 
ping for the Allied powers as long 
as her undersea raiders complied 
with other rules of war. But even 
her great submarine fleet proved 
not enough to stop shipping en- 
tirely, hence the blockade lost its 
force in international law despite 
tremendous loss of life. 

Blockades are as old as naval 
warfare, but in the last two and a 
half centuries they have had legal 
standing. 

Ancient Troy was conquered by 
invading Greeks through the stra- 
tegem of tin* wooden horse, but 
presence of a Greek fleet otf the 
Dardanelles, a fleet that prevented 
normal commerce in foodstuffs and 
ordinary civilian needs, had much 
to do with the final victory of the 
forces of Agamemnon over the 
Trojans. 

War of 1812 

In accurately recorded history 
perhaps the most famous blockades 
were those imposed by the British 
against Napoleon, which contribut- 
ed to the causes of the War of 
1812, and the attempt by Union 
forces to eliminate shipping in 
southern ports during the Civil

Neither was completely success- 
ful, and both enriched blockade 
runners. But they had the con- 
stricting effect desired and shorten- 
ed fighting through absence of 
food and military supplies for the 
blockaded powers.

HATHAHIELTUFTS ROADS AREA 
CHRISTMAS BLOCK PARTY 


A Rood crowd numbering seve- 
ral hundred attended the third an- 
nual Christman block party con- 
ducted by the residents of the 
Tufts and Nathaniel roads area, 
sometimes referred to as “Free- 
man’s Acres,” last Sunday, Decern, 
her 20. 

As usual, the party started with 
carol singing, with Joe Raftery of 
32 Tufts road once again the mas 
ter of ceremonies. 

Not only were all the folks of 
the neighborhood and their guests 
out to await the arrival of Santa; 
every dog in the area was there, 
running about frantically, no doubt 
frustrated by the picket fence sur 
rounding the Christmas tree. 

And a pretty tree it was, sitting 
on the McIntosh lot at the junction 
of the two streets, its little lights 
beaming merrily in the dusk of the 
waning day. 

At four thirty the crowd had 
begun to assemble. Several of the 
children started the proceedings 
by singing carols and gradually the 
grownups chimed in. Of course, all 
this was preliminary to the main 
event, the arrival of Santa Claus. 

There was much conjecture on 
the part of both grownups and 
children as to the means of trans- 
portation Santa would employ. His 
original plan had been to arrive 
by horse-drawn sleigh; but of 
course the absence of snow made 
that impossible. No one doubted for 
a moment, however, that Santa 
would find a way. 

Santa had set the time of his 
arrival at five o'clock. As the hour 
approached the same feeling of an- 
ticipation that is experienced by 
young and old alike at the prospect 
of seeing the jovial gentleman from 
the North, was felt anew. Finally 
when it seemed that Santa just 
never would get there, at the top 
of Tufts road two red blinker lights 
pierced the darkness and down the 
street rushed an automobile, with 
siren screaming. Fire Chief Calla- 
han had once again come to the 
rescue with transportation for good 
old Santa. 

As the familiar red suit of the 
jolly old gentleman could be dis- 
cerned a shout went up that made 
the welkins ring. It is certain that 
Santa never received a warmer wel- 
come. 

The children watched, round- 
eyed with wonder as Santa stepped 
down from the fire chief’s car. On 
his back he carried the biggest sack 
imaginable. With a cheery wave of 
his hand he approached his throne 
at the foot of the tree.. A short 
greeting to all, and he immediately 
proceeded with the dispensing of 
his gifts for the children, aided by 
Helpers Lloyd McIntosh and Joe 
Raftery. 

There was the usual varied re- 
actions from the children when con- 
fronted by Santa Claus. Some ap- 
peared elated, others a bit frighten- 
ed, and still others assumed an air 
of bravado. However, it is certain 
that there was not one who was 
not impressed by beaming, rotund 
St. Nick, who had grown to amaz- 
ing proportions since his last visit 
u year ago. Ernest Howard, a 
friend of the Willettes, played the 
role very well, indeed. 

As usual it was the grownups 
who displayed the greatest interest 
in the proceedings as a group. Al- 
though some of the children were 
greatly excited by the presence of 
Santa Claus, a few of the other 
children, especially the very small 
ones, let their interests wander. 
One little girl, held by a harness, 
like molasses tried to spread out 
in all directions at once. A few of 
the others refused to look at all, 
hiding their faces or turning their 
heads away each time the parent 
holding one would turn him around 
to see Santa. 

However, there is no doubt of the 
success of the party. All during the 
preceding week the children had 
been at fever pitch waiting for 
Santa Claus to appear in their 
area. And it is certain their wait- 
ing was amply rewarded!

There were several other child- 
ren at the party whose names are 
not listed. It was not possible to 
catch the names of all the children 
as they were called out when the 
gifts were being presented. 

Among the better-known resi- 
dents of the town could be seen 
Dr. Charles A. Rooney, a guest of 
Mr. and Mrs. Richard O’Brien of 
28 Tufts road, taking pictures of 
the goings-on with a flash camera, 
and Michael Foley, the auctioneer, 
visiting his daughter, “Bibs”, and 
her husband, Frank Willette, of 24 
Nathaniel road. 

The party as usual was a group 
effort, in which virtually the whole 
neighborhood participated. No one 
but felt amply compensated for his 
efforts. As one visitor from another 
part of Winchester stated, the 
town could well do with a few more 
such neighborhood affairs.

The first graders appreciated the

whose beautiful singing of “White 
Christmas” was much enjoyed. 


The school’s singing groups joined 
forces with Curtain and Cue, the 
dramatic society, to wish the stu- 
dent body a Merry Christmas at a 
ipecial assembly on Wednesday 
morning. Traditional songs, instru- 
mental music, a lovely tableau, and 
a heart-warming play were the in- 
gredients of a program that found

tableau appeared at the front of 
the stage. In the group were Betty 
Rowlingson, Richard Rimbach, Ann 
Cunningham, Don Folkers, Jon Mc- 
Carthy and Judy Snelling. 

“Christmas Spirit” tells the sto- 
ry of how a city girl, somewhat re 
sentful over being transplanted to 
a small town, discovers the real 
meaning of the Christmas spirit. 
It was directed by Gail Stratton, 
Marilyn Dyer, and Nancy Corey.

NATIONAL BANK 
CHRISTMAS PARTY 


The office staff of the Winchester 
National Bank held their annual 
Christmas party on Tuesday eve- 
ning at the Suntaug Inn in Lynn- 
field. 


Winchester Lodge, Sons of Italy,' 
held its Christmas party Sunday ! 
afternoon in the Lincoln School 
Hall, playing host to more than ( 
350 happy youngsters. 

Appropriate motion pictures 
opened the program, after which 
Frank “Hokie” Procopio, who acted 
as master of ceremonies, introduced 
the lodge president, Dominic Pro- 
vinzano, who thanked the commit- 
tee in charge of arrangements for 
their efforts in providing such a 
fine party. President Provinzano 
then introduced the committee 
chairman George Voci, who ex- 
pressed the committee's thanks to 
the school committee, to Superin- 
tendent of Schools Harry Gilson 
and Janitor Peter Benson for their 
cooperation in making the party 
at the school possible. 

Chairman Voci then introduced 
the members of his committee, 
Dominic Provinzano, Frank Pro- 
copio, William Fiore, Carmine 
Frongillo, Richard Penta, Peter 
Lonigro and Anthony Vespucci, all 
of whom took a bow to enthusiastic 
applause. 

Chairman Voci got a big laugh 
and more applause when he thank- 
ed Mrs. William Fiore and his own 
wife for wrapping more than 350 
Christmas packages for the party, 
adding the committee’s thanks to 
the mothers who had hurried to 
get their work done in time to get 
their youngsters to the party. 

The master of ceremonies then 
distributed books of Christmas car- 
ols, donated by John Mercurio and 
everyone joined in singing Christ- 
mas carols with Mrs. Mercurio at 
the piano. As an especial feature 
the members of the committee sang 
two carols by themselves, getting 
enthusiastic applause. All present 
thoroughly enjoyed three Christ- 
mas hymns played as accordion so- 
los by* nine-year-old Peter Lonigro, 
Jr. 

At this point in the program 
Santa Claus suddenly appeared at 
the party, having arrived unnoticed 
by way of a rear entrance. When 
the delighted children got over 
their surprise at Kris Kringle’s ar- 
rival, the jolly Santa distributed 
candy and gifts to all the young- 
sters, after which ice cream and 
cookies were served. 


J. H. WINN, INC. 
CHRISTMAS PARTY 


TB CASES DISCOVERED 


Five hundred and sixty-two ac- 
tive and inactive cases of tuber- 
culosis and 226 cases suspicious of 
tuberculosis were discovered dur- 
ing the past five years when a total 
of 149,014 chest X-rays were taken 
through the efforts of the Middle- 
sex Health Association, the county 
Christmas Seal Agency. These 
findings were disclosed by Mr. 
David Moxon, Executive Director of 
the Association. Many of the per- 
sons found to have active TB were 
hospitalized and have completed or 
are now undergoing treatment. 
Pointed out in the statement was 
the fact that the number of active 
cases within the area would have 
multiplied several times if these 
cases had not been found and 
treated. Many of these chest X-rays 
were sponsored cooperatively with 
the Massachusetts Department of 
Public Health and local boards of 
health while other chest X-rays 
were financed entirely through 
Christmas Seals funds. 

The chest X-rays were taken 
through comprehensive surveys in 
communities and industries, 
through periodic screening clinics 
and through special programs for 
admissions to general hospitals. 

Mr. Moxon also indicated that 
the Association’s casefinding pro- 
gram during the coming year will 
be directed to reach older age 
groups since greater numbers of 
tuberculosis cases are being found 
here. To reach these groups great- 
er emphasis will be placed on in- 
dustrial X-ray programs, general 
hospital admission X-ray programs 
and permanent type X-ray facil- 
ities. 

“This represents a moderately ex- 
panded program and a more ex- 
pansive one. We , sincerely hope 
that everyone will contribute gener- 
ously to the Christmas Seal Sale 
which is now in progress so that 
the casefinding programs and other 
phases of the Association’s pro- 
gram can be accelerated to meet the 
current needs in the fight against 
TB”, Mr. Moxon concluded.

J. H. Winn Inc., held its annual 
Christmas Party at Winchester 
Town Hall Saturday evening, De- j 
cember 19th. At 6:00 p. m. the 
employees and their guests sat 
down to a delicious roast ham din- 
ner. 

Following the dinner Rev. Ar- 
thur L. Winn, former partner and 
son of the founder, Mr. J. H. Winn, 
gave an interesting history of the 
founding and growth of the com- 
pany from 1868 to the present time. 
Mr. Winn had pictures taken at the 
turn of the century showing the 
original watch hand factory in the 
Highlands, built at the edge of the 
now abandoned mill pond which 
was then used for wnter power to 
power the shop machinery. 

Mr. William Parsons, a guest of 
President E. B. Dade, gave a few 
observations of the value of an in- 
dustry such as Winns to the com- 
munity ns a whole, not only ns far 
ns the payment of taxes directly to 
the town, but also in the employ- 
ment of many of the towns citizens, 
some having worked continuously 
for the firm for over forty years. 

On the occasion of the eighty- 
fifth anniversary of the founding, 
the firm honored Miss M. A. G. 
Haggerty, who has worked conti- 
nuously for the firm for forty-five 
years, and Mr. George Morse, who 
has worked continuously for the 
firm for forty years, the total years 
worked by these two equaling the 
number of years the firm has been 
operating. 

Mr. E. B. Dade, President of J. 
II. Winn Inc., reported on several 
items of interest to the employees, 
including the Health and Accident 
Program, Profit Sharing Program, 
individual savings of employees 
through Bonds and Christmas Club 
and reviewed company operations 
in a general way. 

This portion of the program was 
followed by a minstrel show put on 
by the employees. Between fifty 
and sixty employees participated in 
the show under the leadership of 
Leonard Clark. The songs, ♦am- 
bourine overture, specialty acts, 
the appearance of Miss J. H. Winn 
>f 1953, and jokes were enjoyed by 
all. 

Following the show the hall was 
cleared for dancing to Duke Her- 
lund’s “Friendly Music” until mid- 
night.

age the singing of carols and added 
much to the pleasure of everyone 
present.

the party was composed of the fol- 
lowing:

Pack 3 Notes 

Winchester Club Scouts of Pack 
3 participated in one of the most 
impressive Yuletide programs of 
the season Wednesday night, De- 
cember 10. In the first of what is 
expected to ho an annual affair, the 
group met at the Depot and march- 
ed by dens in a candle-lit parade to 
the Common. 

Lights on the big Christmas tree 
were put out as parents and cubs 
circled around and sang carols by 
candlelight under the direction of 
Robert Carlson. To the tune of 
Jingle Bells they then pranced to 
Chidley Hall in the First Congre- 
gational Church for their Christ- 
mas party. 

Each Cub brought along two 
gifts. Santa Claus — Jim Harring- 
ton — distributed one of these gifts 
to each of the Cubs and the other 
went to the Winchester Community 
Relief Committee. Refreshments 
then were served. 

Tom Walsh, the Cubmaster, pre- 
sented achievement awards to John 
Sherban, Garry Callahan and Jim 
Holdam. 

The colorful program, which will 
long be remembered by the Cubs, 
their parents and those who at- 
tended was handled by a commit- 
tee of five. They were: Mrs. Char- 
les Newton, Mrs. James Dolben, II. 
Rudolph Gieger, Mrs. Byron Graves 
and Richard Bateman.

recent 

New England Lawn Tennis Asso- 
ciation when he became the first 
to he awarded the new Gardner W. 
Chase Memorial Trophy as “the 
male player and sportsman who, 
by his character and sportsman- 
ship made an outstanding contribu- 
tion to tennis in our section.” 

The award, which is to be an- 
nual, has been set up by Mr. and 
Mrs. Harrison F. Rowbotham of 
Wnban in memory of Mrs. Row- 
hot ham’s father, Gardner W. Chase. 
^ Mr. Hawley’s influence on New 
England tennis has been strong 
during the past two years and es- 
pecially so during the time he has 
headed the New England Junior 
Tennis Development Committee. 
Largely through his efforts the 
committee has instituted a greatly 
expanded program of junior tennis 
activity and has brought the game 
to many more boys and girls in all 
parts of New England. 

The formation of a New England 
Junior Tennis League this past 
season, with Winchester the first 
team to enroll in this district, sti- 
mulated interest to such an extent 
that it is expected more than 60 
Junior Tennis League teams will be 
playing competitive tennis in all 
sections of New England next sea- 
son. For much of this progress 
Mr. Hawley’s enthusiasm and drive 
have been responsible. As a player, 
too, he has been prominent on the 
Now England front. New England 
champion last season, he topped 
the sectional rankings in both sin- 
gles and doubles, a notable achieve- 
ment when you consider the time 
and effort he gave to junior tennis. 
He was also named second vice 
president of the New England 
Lawn Tennis Association. 

Happy as Mr. Hawley undoubt- 
edly is over his personal honors, he 
is very probably most pleased over 
-he fact that several Winchester 
names appear in the 1954 N. E. 
rankings. In the junior, or older 
girls’ singles rankings ‘True” Mor- 
ton is ranked ninth, while in the 
junior doubles, Winchester’s Sylvia 
Crowelli and Jeanne McKenzie are 
ranked sixth. 

In girls’ singles (15 and under) 
Penny Nichols is ranked third and 
Jeanne McKenzie, fourth. Lee Ab- 
bott also is ranked eleventh in this 
bracket. Lee Abbott and Jeanne 
McKenzie are ranked second in 
girls’ doubles. 

No boys are ranked among the 
top junior hoys or younger hoys’ 
listings, hut several local young- 
sters added materially to their ten- 
nis experience and skill last season 
so that hopes of crashing the top 
ten another year are being held 
out. 

Among the town’s older players, 
Mrs. Arthur Hills is ranked ninth 
in women’s singles, and sixth with 
Mrs. Arklcy Richards in women’s 
doubles. 

Arthur Hills teamed with Robert 
Joslin to he ranked seventh in 
men’s doubles, and was also elect- 
ed a delegate-at-large for the New 
England Lawn Tennis Association. 


WINCHESTER HOMEFRONTERS 


ustom of sending some Christmas 
challenge, along with the personal 
greetings, in the form of a mimeo- 
graphed letter. The written medi- 
tation this year reveals the trend 
of various groups celebrating 
Christmas. Following is a copy 
which we have before us. 

Personal Greetings to von 
from *Ts Five” Snooks 

A Joyous Season to You 

While Phyllis, Jacqueline, Jane, 
Wesley, and I are preparing our- 
selves for the Christmas festivities, 
we do want to include in them our 
sincere wishes for a Christmas 
season filled with meaning, appre- 
ciation, and blessings. 

Other than just to wish you the 
customary “Merry Christmas nnd 
Happy New Year” we would also 
desire to offer a challenge that 
might stir every mind and heart 
toward genuine Christmas thought 
and activity. 

Allow us to say that there are 
three types of Christmas celebrat- 
ors. 

The first group will substitute 
the letter X-mas, which usually 
denotes the algebraic unknown. The 
day will he a holiday, supplanting 
tin* real holy day ana Christ will 
not enter the picture. Christmas 
chores become Christmas bores and 
the season will pass without a 
“thank you, Lord.’’ 

The second group will come into 
the “folksy Christmas” class. This 
is the Christmas of too many peo- 
ple and is spelled with a small “e.” 
There is good fellowship and they 
respond to it. There are many fa- 
mily gatherings, exchanging of 
gifts, and much fun. It is all good 
but we can have such a Christmas 
and miss its much deeper meaning. 

The third group will give reve- 
rential regard to the occasion and 
commemorate the birth of the 
Christ child with a sense of thank- 
fulness to God for the greatest gift 
ever given to mankind, Jesus 
Christ. That gratitude will be ex- 
pressed by prayer, allegiance, and 
devotion. 

He who would get the best out 
of Christmas must have spiritual 
communion with God. 

God grant that we may find, or 
make cause to find ourselves in the 
third group. Let us not only com- 
memorate our Saviour’s birth, but 
also serve Him as the King of our 
lives. 

Then we can keep Christmas. 

May the Christmas season add 
som new worthwhile joy to your 
life and may the New Year chal- 
lenge us all to the best life possible 
in the service of our King whose 
power can dispel anxiety, turmoil, 
and sin and bring peace to men of 
good will. 

Most Sincerely — In Him 
“Us Five Snooks” 
Wesley Jane Jacqueline 

Phyllis John, Jr. 

Note: Suggested reading — Luke 
I and II 

While it is good to witness the 
semblance of rapture in old and 
young alike, it is good, wise and 
beneficial to those who follow the 
deeper implications of this com- 
memoration. 


Through the conscientious efforts 
of our executive-chairman, Mrs. 
William Cusack, Mrs. Frank Car- 
roll, radio message chairman, and 
her committee: Mrs. Marion Kelly 
and Mrs. John ChafFc, eighty-five 
Christmas messages were sent to

THE SENIOR FORUM 

This Sunday, December 27, is 
again Forum Sunday nt Church 
when members of the Senior Forum 
of the First Congregational Church 
will attend the regular 10:45 serv- 
ice. Forum chaplain will be 
David Pratt. 

At 4:00 in the afternoon, in Rip- 
ley Chapel, will he held the Annual 
Forum Alumni Vesper Service. 
This is a time for reunion among 
former Forum members who are 
home for the holidays, and a chance 
for them to meet the present mem- 
bers. The service is arranged and 
conducted by three former Forum 
presidents, Dave Archibald, Dick 
Rush and Bill Johnston, and Forum 
will again have the pleasure of 
hearing Dorothy Brandt who will 
sing, “Voice in the Wilderness” by 
John Scott. A message will he 
brought to the group by Reverend 
Robert Dodds. 

Mr. Dodds was born in India but 
obtained his education in this coun- 
try. He received his A. B. degree 
from Columbia in 1940, and his 
S. T. B. degree from Harvard Div- 
inity School in 1948. For a short 
time he held a pastorate on Cape 
Cod and was President of the Capist 
Ministry. He has especially en- 
joyed working with young people 
and was active in many youth pro- 
grams. He spent a period of doing 
Social Work, after which he was 
sent to have charge of a Students 
in Industry program at Hartford, 
Conn., a student Christian move- 
ment project. For the past three 
and one-half years he has been 
Minister of Students at the Con- 
gregational Church in Cambridge, 
of which the student group is known 
as the Congregational-Presbyterian 
Student Fellowship, where his suc- 
cess has been widespread. Since he 
will leave this position in the spring 
to be minister at the Second Con- 
gregational Church in Waterbury, 
Conn., Forum is indeed fortunate in 
this opportunity to meet him while 
lie is still in Massachusetts.

MEN S CLUB TO SEE 
INDUSTRIAL MIRACLE 


('in Tuesday evening, January 5, 
the Men’s Club meeting of the First 
Congregational Church in Win- 
chester will feature a demonstra- 
tion of one of America’s greatest 
industrial miracles, the transistor. 
This presentation by Mr. Robert W. 
Stokes of the New England Tele- 
phone nnd Telegraph Company will 
illustrate the amazing properties of 
this tiny device which has been 
hailed ns the greatest advance in 
communications since Lee Do For- 
est invented the radio tube forty- 
six years ago. 

Invented by the Bell Telephone 
Laboratories, the transistor, whose 
working parts arc about the size of 
a pinhead, is slated to drastically 
I reduce the size and weight of fa- 
■ miliar communication devices with 
striking improvements in reliability 
and length of life. While still in 
the experimental stage, the trans- 
istor will eventually open exciting 
new frontiers in telephony, radio, 
television radar, guided missiles, 
and the whole field of military and 
aviation electronics. 

In this demonstration, members 
nnd guests will have an opportunity 
to see nnd hear a tiny vest-pocket 
rndio transmitter made famous by 
the comic strips. They will hear 
transistors operating on batteries 
made from blotting paper and a 
coin. Because transistors have no 
heating elements, there is no warm 
up period, nnd the amount of power 
required to operate this new device 
is fantastically small. Such char- 
acteristics unquestionably will 
lead to more efficient, less costly, 
and more reliable telephone service, 
radio and television transmission 
and reception. 

This popular science demonstra- 
tion will he the first of its kind ever 
presented in the Metropolitan Bos- 
ton Area and offers an exciting pre- 
view of ore of the newest develop- 
ments in the electronics field.

Donald E. Mathews, 22, of 17 
Nashua street, Woburn, a veteran 
of two Navy enlistments, was be- 
lieved to have been instantly killed 
shortly after 4:30 o’clock Tuesday 
afternoon when the Plymouth tuxi 
he was driving for the Doherty 
Taxi Cab Company of Woburn, was 
in collision with an in-bound train ! 
at the spot where the tracks of the 
Woburn loop of the Boston & Maine 
Railroad cross Hill street. 

Hill street is a private way, and 
a dirt road not in good condition 
for travel. The railroad crossing 
is not protected by gates or bar- 
riers of any kind, but is posted at 
both sides with “no trespassing” 
signs. 

According to the police account 
of the accident young Mathews was 
driving the taxicab along Hill 
street toward Main street when the 
collision occurred. The left front 
of the engine, No. 3649, stmek the 
right side of the automobile about 
in the middle, the force of the im- 
pact wedging the car against the 
front of the locomotive. The en- 
gine swept along the wreckage of 
the cab for a distance of about 

I, 000 feet, finally stopping at the 
rear of Mottolo’s store on upper 
Main street. 

The engineer of the train, Joseph 
Perry of 124 Rice street, Lowell, 
told the police he did not see the 
car approaching the track, his place 
being on the right side of the cab. 
The fireman, John II. Kempton of 
55 St. James street, Dracut, who 
was on the left side of the cab 
saw the car coming down Hill street 
from the direction of White street 
as the train was headed south 
toward Winchester. lie told the 
police he believed the operator was 
hurled from the car after the col- 
lision, somewhere between Hill 
street and the Swanton street 
bridge. 

Officers John Murray and John 
Hogan were the first police sent 
to the scene after the accident was 
reported with Officer Mario Buz- 
zotta and Firefighter Norman Dou- 
cette following immediately in the 
police ambulance. Other police as- 
sisting were Officers William T. 
Haggerty, Andrew Crawford, Er- 
win Nurnberger and William Cal- 
lahan. 

After dispatching police to the 
scene of the accident Chief Charles 

J. Harrold notified the Fire Depart- 
ment, Engine II and Ladder I going 
to assist with Captain Ray Hans- 
com in charge of a detail, compris- 
ing Firelighters Walter Carroll, 
Daniel Stygles and Peter GalufTo. 
Chief James E. Callahan of the Fire 
Department also was on the scene. 

The firefighters had a booster line 
in readiness if the gasoline from 
the wrecked taxi became ignited. 

Meanwhile the police and fire- 
fighters commenced a search along 
th# tracks for the missing operator 
Of the taxi. He was found by Offic- 
ers Buzzota, Callahan and Nurn- 
berger and Firefighter Doucette 
lying on the north hound tracks 
about 75 feet south of the Swanton 
street bridge. He was terribly in- 
jured and was pronounced dead 
upon his arrival at the Winchester 


Hospital by Dr. Charles E. Rooney. 
Medical examiner John Wilcox of 
Woburn viewed the body of the 
young man, who was unmarried 
and not long out of the armed 
forces where he had risked death 
on several occasions. His parents 
were notified by the Woburn Po- 
lice, relaying a message from local 
Headquarters. 

While the victim of the accident 
was being rushed to the hospital 
another search was instituted for 
a possible passenger in the taxi at 
the time of the collision. It was 
learned, however, that the young 
man had delivered a fare in the Hill 
street neighborhood and was on his 
way back to Woburn alone. 

Firefighters attempted to remove 
the car from the front of the loco- 
motive. but so tightly was it 
wedged against the engine that the 
cow-catcher 1 uk 1 to be cut away 
with the Fire Department’s acet- 
ylene cutting torch, brought to the 
scene of the accident by Firefighter 
Michael Connolly. After getting 
the demolished car off the tracks it 
was towed into the Beggs & Cobb 
yard to be removed later. 

Several persons living in the 
neighborhood told the police they 
saw the taxi driving toward the 
crossing and tried to warn the 
operator of the approaching train. 
They were unable however to at- 
tract his attention in time to avoid 
the tragedy.
